Lu Yin glanced over at Da Hei. While Lu Yin had no choice but to stay and fight, Da Hei had not tried to leave either. This was proof that he had not given up yet. Had he done something like this before?
Space shattered as Lu Yin stared at the astral beast. Although this creature had comprehended a law of the universe that made it impossible to counterattack, the beast’s speed and strength were not particularly impressive. Its attacks were quite destructive, but they were similar to Xia Shenji’s. It was not impossible to defeat the astral beast, as long as its sequence particles could be dealt with.
If Lu Yin were fighting as himself, he had more than one way to deal with the beast’s sequence particles, but at the moment, he had to be Ye Bo.
Ye Bo did not have Lu Yin's abilities, so other methods were necessary.
The sharp claws swept in from the side again, and Lu Yin dodged as he controlled a Progenitor-level corpse king to move closer. The next time the astral beast's claws fell, Lu Yin knew that this attack needed to be met with a leg. Immediately, the Progenitor-level corpse king was controlled, and the astral beast’s claws struck the corpse king’s leg.
There was a bang, and half of the corpse king was torn to pieces by the swipe of the claws. Lu Yin's eyes turned cold, as he had just seen a portion of the astral beast’s sequence particles disappear.
Right, that was another option. Sequence particles represented a law of the universe, and that meant that, as long as the law was followed, it was possible to grind away at an opponent's sequence particles. This could also be considered a kind of law of the universe.
No matter the expert, comprehending sequence particles was one thing, while mastering their usage was another, and both required practice. This created a distinction between weak and strong sequence powerhouses.
Sequence particles represented a law of the universe, and they could be regarded as another form of energy.
As long as the laws of the universe were obeyed, it was possible to wear away at the corresponding sequence particles.
Old Mo had mastered sequence particles related to the Law of Darkness. Enforcing that particular law consumed some of the man’s sequence particles. With enough time, all of his sequence particles would be consumed, and this same idea applied to every other sequence expert as well.
Lu Yin had no idea how the astral beast had managed to cultivate to the sequence powerhouse level. Logically, a creature that fought on instinct, like this astral beast, should have never been able to reach such a level. There was no one who could answer this question for Lu Yin.
Taking advantage of the opportunity that had come from the decrease of sequence particles at the astral beast’s claws, Lu Yin attacked with a level of strength worthy of a Progenitor-level expert. While he only used a crude battle technique, it did not matter as long as it was powerful enough.
Right when Lu Yin attacked, Da Hei did as well.
Two attacks struck the astral beast, tearing it apart. Unexpectedly, the creature’s defenses were not nearly as robust as they appeared. RêAd lateSt chapters at novelhall.com Only
The astral beast roared and raised its claws to attack again.
Lu Yin used the same method once again, sacrificing a Progenitor-level corpse king to follow the rules established by the astral beast in order to erase a portion of the beast’s sequence particles, creating another opening in which to attack.
After repeating this process several times, the astral beast was severely wounded. Da Hei’s attacks were particularly effective, as his power was extremely corrosive. Heaven’s Sight showed Lu Yin that the creature did not possess even half of the sequence particles that it had controlled at the beginning of the fight.
Of course, they had not paid a small price to make such progress. Three Progenitor-level corpse kings had been killed along the way.
One of Da Hei’s Progenitor-level corpse kings had also died.
Of course, Lu Yin did not care at all about the Progenitor-level corpse kings. He simply had not expected Da Hei to similarly not care at all. Even Progenitor-level corpse kings were nothing more than mere tools.
Blood splattered across outer space, and the astral beast gasped. If it did not attack, there was no opening for Lu Yin and Da Hei to use to attack the astral beast. Their only means of fighting the creature was to counterattack the moment the sequence particles were actively used. Without that, they would be forced to take the initiative, which would cause them to directly face the astral beast’s sequence particles and run into a bad end.
A seemingly infinite battlefield surrounded them. The endless fighting seemed to never fade.
The astral beast stared at Lu Yin, as he had been the first to find the counterattacking method of sacrificing a Progenitor-level corpse king.
"Why do you massacre my kin?" the astral beast growled.
Lu Yin's eyes flashed, and he looked at Da Hei. Lu Yin was also curious about this.
Da Hei said nothing, and he simply stared at the beast.
"My clan has never fought you or any others. Throughout all of my memories, we have never even seen creatures like you before. Why do you slaughter my kin?"
No one answered the astral beast.
It roared. "Why? Since you slaughter us, there must be a reason for it!"
Progenitor Xi answered with a slight smile, "Yes. His name is Da Hei, and he is decently powerful."
Lu Yin nodded but said nothing.
"Do you have any questions?" Progenitor Xi asked softly.
Lu Yin stepped aside, revealing that there were only two Progenitor-level corpse kings behind him. "Three were sacrificed."
"That doesn't matter. Sacrificing a few corpse kings means nothing if it allows for the death of a sequence powerhouse," Progenitor Xi replied.
Lu Yin was curious. "Why destroy them?"
Progenitor Xi’s smile remained. "When laws become common, they are no longer rules."
Lu Yin did not understand.
Progenitor Xi lifted a hand and pointed in a certain direction. "A tower has been built for you, Mr. Ye Bo. It isn’t far from Yu Huo’s. Consider this an early expression of congratulations for becoming a True God Guard Captain.
"We can only give you these two Progenitor-level corpse kings for the moment, but the rest will be given to you as soon as possible. Allow me to officially welcome you to Aeternus."
Lu Yin nodded. "Thank you."
He then said goodbye to Progenitor Xi and walked in the direction that she had indicated. He soon found a tall tower that was very similar to Yu Huo’s. Outside of the tower stood a beautiful woman.
"Greetings, Master." The woman offered a respectful bow.
Lu Yin knew that every tower was supplied with maids to meet the needs of the owner. For Aeternus’s human Progenitor-level experts, they received human maids. Yu Huo's maid was not human, but rather a fish from the same species as Yu Huo.
"Where are you from?"
The maid remained completely respectful, "Master, your servant is from an ordinary universe."
"Have you ever heard of the Sixverse Association?"
"No, Master."
Lu Yin entered the tower. The maid’s universe seemed to have no connection to the Sixverse Association. There were many parallel universes with humans occupying them, and they served as the source of the Aeternals' endless corpse kings.
"What resources do you require, Master? I will request them from Senior Progenitor Xi."
Out of reflex, Lu Yin nearly replied that he wanted star essence, but given Ye Bo’s level of strength, such things should no longer matter. Making such a request would only raise suspicions.
"I want to eat fruit fish."
The maid was confused. "Fruit fish?"
"It’s a type of fish that only lives in the Origin Universe’s Astral River. They’re quite delicious," Lu Yin explained. He was curious to see if the Aeternals could get this for him.
With that explanation, the maid no longer hesitated. She gave another respectful bow and then left.
Half a day later, she returned. "Master, Senior Progenitor Xi has ordered people to collect fruit fish for you."
Lu Yin grunted and then ignored the maid. He stood atop the tower and stared at the distant black Mother Tree of the Aeternals.
Divine power fell from the Mother Tree like a waterfall. What was at the top of this Mother Tree?
Which of the Seven Skygods was the master of the tower that had been raised closest to the Mother Tree? Lu Yin was quite curious about that.
His greatest curiosity was about Whiteless God. No one had ever seen Whiteless God’s true appearance, and that was true even after Ancestor Tianyi had fought against Whiteless God.
