Chapter 2149: Skyrocketing Cultivation

Yōu Keyan’s eyes s.h.i.+fted as soon as she heard Lu Yin's request. Was he after their secret technique?

"Dao Chosen, the Yōu Secret Art can only be inherited by a single person from my Yōu clan. It’s impossible to acquire it without possessing the blood of the Yōu clan. This-"

Yōu Keyan wanted to continue, but Lu Yin raised a hand to stop her. "I know. If I was actually after your Yōu Secret Art, you wouldn't have been able to keep it twenty years ago. Just bring her in."

Yōu Keyan had no choice. She nodded and left the main hall. However, she did not just summon Yōu Ye'er to the main hall; Yōu Keyan also sent messages to Yōu Lao and Yōu Kexin to discuss the situation.

Lu Yin was well aware of just how afraid the Yōu clan was of him. When facing Lu Yin, the Yōu clan was essentially nothing more than a piece of meat on a chopping board waiting to be gobbled up.

The truth was that Lu Yin really did have no intentions regarding the Yōu Secret Art. All he wanted to see was if Big Sis would have any reaction to seeing or being in the presence of the secret technique.

"Big Sis, how do you feel about these people?" Lu Yin asked.

Big Sis looked very somber. "Those two girls are almost perfect for you, but one of them looks like she’s only about ten years old, which is too young. Still, age isn’t really a problem for us. As long as you like them, they’re all yours. You need to hurry up and spread your seed."

Lu Yin did not know how to react. He had a.s.sumed that Big Sis had been acting so seriously because she had discovered something wrong. "Big Sis, can you feel any sort of connection or blood-ties to these people from the Yōu clan?"

"No," Big Sis answered bluntly.

This was not a surprise to Lu Yin. Being able to sense blood-ties was a rather mysterious matter. If Big Sis had met with the first generation of her descendants, she might have been able to easily sense such a thing, but how many generations had pa.s.sed? The Yōu clan’s blood had become too diluted.

"From what I picked up during your conversation with Destina, there’s someone hiding here as a member of the Yōu clan. How should I find them?" Big Sis asked.

Lu Yin replied, "Just leave things be for now. Forcefully trying to drag them out isn’t going to be easy. I want to first find out if anyone in the Yōu clan knows about it."

After a while, Yōu Keyan returned with Yōu Ye'er. There was a calm expression on the matriarch’s face. It seemed that her discussion with the two elders had reached a conclusion.

Yōu Ye'er greeted Lu Yin in a charming manner when she saw him. "Brother Lu."

She looked like a sweet little child, and Big Sis liked how cute this girl was. She patted her thigh and said, "If it’s her, don’t worry about how young she is. You’ll just need to wait a few years, but I’ll decide now."

Yōu Keyan and the others could not understand anything that Big Sis said. This strange person had to be insane.

Lu Yin completely ignored Big Sis, and he instead addressed Yōu Ye’er with a smile, "You can return to your original appearance. I saw you partic.i.p.ating in the Dao Chosen selection."

Yōu Ye'er smiled wryly. "Unfortunately, I was not able to stand out at all and was easily eliminated."

Her clothes and hair then started to ruffle, despite the lack of a breeze in the room, as her body started to grow.

Big Sis’s mouth fell open. Was this for real?

When Yōu Ye'er was done, she no longer had the appearance of a cute little girl, but instead looked like a cold and collected young woman. With her black dress, she looked like a black rose: beautiful and dangerous.

The sight amazed Lu Yin once again, and he looked at Yōu Ye'er with bright eyes.

Yōu Keyan carefully observed Lu Yin’s reactions, and she saw the appreciation in his eyes as he looked at Yōu Ye'er. Was he attracted to her? If that was the case, then all the better.

Lu Yin stared at Yōu Ye'er, and Yōu Ye'er and Yōu Keyan both stared at Lu Yin. However, not one of the three noticed that, when Yōu Ye'er released the Yōu Secret Art, Big Sis's eyes grew dull. However, there were indescribable emotions flickering beneath that blank expression. It was almost as if there was another person inside Big Sis; someone who had been waiting countless years to be able to appear.

Suddenly, Big Sis stretched out a hand, and before anyone could even react, she pressed it against Yōu Ye'er's forehead.

No one had expected Big Sis to suddenly make a move, and not even Lu Yin was able to react in time. Big Sis had moved too quickly, and her speed was truly unbelievable.

The moment Big Sis pressed her hand against Yōu Ye'er's forehead, the young woman’s body trembled. Big Sis slowly pulled her hand back, and a formless, yet visible, energy was drawn out of Yōu Ye’er’s body along with it. Then, it started to flow into Big Sis.

Yōu Keyan was startled, and she instantly attacked Big Sis, completely ignoring Lu Yin's presence.

However, the matriarch’s strength was not able to do anything to Big Sis. After all, Big Sis was capable of going up against Sky Garan. Even if Big Sis’s cultivation was at the same realm as Yōu Keyan’s, their combat strength was not even close.

There was a bang, and Yōu Keyan was shaken back as Big Sis continued to extract the formless power from Yōu Ye'er's body.

At this time, Yōu Kexin and Yōu Ren emerged from the void, and they both attacked Big Sis as well. However, both of them were weaker than Yōu Keyan, and they were unable to even get close to Big Sis.

Yōu Lao finally appeared, using a Netherworld River to arrive. He also attacked Big Sis, while shouting, "Stop!"

Lu Yin suddenly appeared in front of the old man, and with a flick of his fingers, a gust of wind forced Yōu Lao back. An overwhelming power tore through the void, and it caused the entire Yōu clan to quiver.

Yōu Lao did not dare to attempt to attack Lu Yin after being pushed back by nothing more than the wind created by a finger flick. The old man moved a few steps back. "Dao Chosen, what is the meaning of this?"

Lu Yin just turned back to stare at Big Sis. Coincidentally, it was at this exact moment that the formless energy was completely removed from Yōu Ye’er, and the woman collapsed. Big Sis just stood where she was, her eyes showing that she was lost in her own thoughts. Suddenly, a burst of energy erupted from her, and it swept out in every direction. It spread through Earth’s solar system, Frostwave Weave, and then the entire Outerverse.

Many people noticed this oppressive and powerful energy that suppressed them to the point where they could not even breathe.

Within the Heavens Sect, Lu Buzheng’s head snapped up, and he looked towards the Yōu clan. "That power feels so familiar."

The man instantly disappeared.

Elsewhere, Destina also looked towards the source of the wave of energy. "Is she starting to recover?"

The Yōu clan’s main hall had already been shattered, and Big Sis’s face and body were continuously transforming. Sometimes she looked male, and at other times, she appeared female. Yet at other times, she looked as young as a child, while there were also occasions where she looked like an ancient woman. The only aspect that remained constant was that the oppressive aura she radiated grew increasingly powerful, and quickly too. More and more, until finally, she reached the aura of a six-tribulation Envoy. This was a power level of over a million.

Lu Yin was stunned. This was too quick of an improvement. Had Big Sis surpa.s.sed a power level of a million in almost an instant? Was this the power of Progenitor Yōu?

Across the ruined room, Yōu Lao was shocked. This- this power… Isn’t this the Yōu Secret Art?

There was no chance that Yōu Lao could be wrong about this. He could clearly sense the Yōu Secret Art, as nothing else possessed such a dark and profound power. It felt evil and dark; while completely bizarre, it also felt completely domineering.

When Big Sis’s power reached its peak, her physical appearance also stabilized. She had the appearance of a cold woman with slightly purple eyes. She was not beautiful, but rather majestic, especially when her eyes gleamed in the light. She looked even more domineering as black and purple lights periodically flickered across her body, as if she was from a dream.

However, her eyes had completely changed, and there was an unprecedented coldness to them.

Lu Yin stared at Big Sis in amazement for a moment. He felt a similar sensation as to when he had first seen Progenitor Smoke. There was a certain majesty that the two women gave off that felt exactly the same, even if the source could not be felt or seen.

At this moment, Progenitor Smoke appeared. She was also startled by Big Sis’s transformation. "So you really are Progenitor Yōu. That’s the energy of a Progenitor."

"Progenitor Yōu Ming?" Yōu Lao, Yōu Keyan, and Yōu Kexin all shouted in unison. They all stared at Progenitor Smoke in disbelief.

However, Progenitor Smoke vanished as soon as she made this single observation.

Lu Yin ignored everyone as he stared at Big Sis, and he tentatively called out, "Big Sis?"

The main hall was completely silent, but outside, a group of people from the Yōu clan had already surrounded the building, though none of them dared enter.

Further away, Lu Buzheng and Destina had both arrived, and they glanced at each other. "That was the power of Progenitor Yōu. I’ve felt it from afar in the past."

Destina was still hidden within her white cloud, and she coldly replied, "Before you chased after Destiny, you first wanted to summon Progenitor Yōu with your ancestral qi."

Lu Buzheng did not deny the accusation, as it was true. After he had successfully cultivated the Tri-Yang Ancestral Qi Technique, the first being that he had branded for his summon had been a Progenitor realm astral beast that belonged to the Lu family. His second summon had been obtained by the Lu family during an exchange with another human Progenitor. As for his third summon, the Lu family’s old ancestor had asked Lu Buzheng to wait while they sought out the best possible option. At that time, Progenitor Yōu had been the goal. Lu Buzheng had searched for the ancient powerhouse, and he had once sensed her power.

How could Lu Buzheng have imagined that his ancestor would eventually lead him after Destiny herself and steal a wisp of the Ancient Progenitor? Even on his deathbed, Lu Buzheng would have never imagined that his ancestor could be so ruthless without witnessing it for himself. The ancestor had dared to go after Destiny herself, rather than Progenitor Yōu.

However, Destiny was too fickle a summon, and Lu Buzheng had never been able to use the summon as he wished. On top of that, stealing from Destiny had antagonized Destiny’s disciples, and Lu Buzheng had been chased and hara.s.sed by Destina, which was incredibly frustrating to deal with.

"There’s no need to mention the past. So much time has pa.s.sed, and my ancestors are all gone." Lu Buzheng actually felt embarra.s.sed by Destina’s comment.

Destina looked back at the Great Abyss. The power that they had sensed could only compare to a six-tribulation powerhouse, which was nowhere close to Progenitor Yōu’s peak.

Back inside the main hall, Lu Yin cautiously called out again, "Big Sis?"

Everyone stared at the woman.

Yōu Lao and the others felt a suppression that reached down into their very souls. The aura of superiority that they felt from the woman before them made them all wors.h.i.+pful.

After a long time of remaining silent, Big Sis turned her head to fix her purplish eyes onto Lu Yin. "This girl isn’t bad, and I like how she looks, so find a chance to seal the deal."

Lu Yin was stunned.

Yōu Lao and the others in the room were also shocked. What was that supposed to mean?

"Big Sis, you haven't changed?" Lu Yin was rather taken aback. Given the drastic change in Big Sis’s power, it was clear that she had regained a portion of her strength as Progenitor Yōu, so why was she still talking like a crude pirate?

Big Sis snorted contemptuously as she stretched out a hand and reached for the ma.s.sive hammer that she had set down. Yōu Lao and the other members of the Yōu clan all trembled, as they believed the woman was about to attack their family.

The hammer melted and transformed into a beam of light that shot past Lu Yin and the others in the room. It pierced through the void and shot out of the main hall to wrap around one of the members from the Yōu clan who had arrived and surrounded the main hall.

The strange light formed a cage that trapped the person.

The man panicked, and he nervously glanced around.

Lu Yin watched what was happening, and Big Sis asked, "Little Seven, you haven’t been able to find Undying Yushan, right? That’s him."

"Help! Save me! Elder, save me!" the man screamed for help in his terror.

Yōu Lao and the others were all still staring at Big Sis. None of them had any idea what to say at this moment. The only thing that they could think about was how Progenitor Smoke had suddenly appeared and proclaimed this person to be Progenitor Yōu. Was that true? Impossible! While the members of the Yōu clan all believed that Progenitor Yōu had been a real person, their ancestor existed in too distant an era. Unless Progenitor Yōu had been sealed and released like the gatemasters of the Twelve Heavenly Gate, how could their ancestor possibly have survived for so long?

Lu Yin looked over at the person within the cage. This fear was not fake. Lu Yin could not stop himself from looking back at Big Sis. "Big Sis, is he really Undying Yushan?"

Big Sis sneered. "The Impious Sutra’s Face Change was made after a conversation with the G.o.d of Death. It’s able to completely transform a person, and it’s impossible to see through. What, do you still want to try hiding who you are, Undying Yushan?"
