Chapter 3056: Lu Yin VS. Di Qiong

Di Qiong’s voice was arrogant. "I've seen through everything you have! You were merely tools for my cultivation. Once I've slaughtered your three elephants, you can blame the Sixverse a.s.sociation for suppressing the First Scourge. They’ve forced all of us to take action."

He then released his spear and clenched his fists while letting out a deep shout. A terrifying pressure created ripples around him that swept the Great Sage Elephant back. Di Qiong looked up and threw a punch, shattering one of the approaching golden palms before spinning around with a kick that slammed into the All-Dao Elephant’s trunk. There was a loud bang, and the void shattered.

Some distance away, Lu Yin's eye twitched uncontrollably. Without using sequence particles, Di Qiong had used nothing more than his physical strength to defeat the three elephants, leaving the Divine Maiden helpless. This was the power of one of the Three Pillars and Six Skies.

The Divine Maiden was stunned. She had thought that she had driven Di Qiong back the last time, and while she knew that he would return and be able to defeat her the next time, she had thought that she had nearly 100 years to relocate G.o.d’s Domain. Why was he attacking again so soon?

Di Qiong raised his head, revealing that his pupils had vanished. This was the hallmark sign of Pupilless Transformation.

The highest level of the Corpse King Transformation granted a progenitor-level corpse king enough strength to intimidate even sequence powerhouses. Zhong Pan was one example of such a corpse king. It was possible for these creatures to a sequence particle attack with just their incredible physical might after undergoing a Pupilless Transformation.

Di Qiong himself was a sequence powerhouse, and one comparable to the Seven SkyG.o.ds at that. When he used the Pupilless Transformation, the pressure he radiated was so intense that even Lu Yin struggled to breathe.

Fortunately, Di Qiong was completely ignoring Lu Yin. The young man was merely a Semi-Progenitor, and there were a few other cultivators at his level in G.o.d's Domain.

However, the Divine Maiden noticed Lu Yin, and his presence surprised her greatly. How is Lu Yin here?

Lu Yin gestured to the Divine Maiden for her to stay silent, and then he flew towards Di Qiong at a speed typical of a Semi-Progenitor. It looked as though Lu Yin was going to his death.

The Great Sage Elephant ferociously charged at Di Qiong, only for him to hold the elephant back with one hand. "I’ve known for a long time that the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant is no longer here in G.o.d’s Domain. In fact, I know where it is."

The Divine Maiden was startled. "You know where the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant is?"

Di Qiong was still blocking the Great Sage Elephant with one hand, but then his fingers started to squeeze. There was a boom, and something happened inside the elephant. It spat out blood before slowly collapsing to the ground.

The Virtue-Erasing Reincarnation Elephant raced over from another direction.

The Divine Maiden's eyes flickered as she watched the Virtue-Erasing Reincarnation Elephant also fall to Di Qiong. She was completely unable to stand up to this monster. He had been toying with G.o.d's Domain for many years, and all the while, she had thought that she had been the one holding him back.

"We must flee!" a voice reached the Divine Maiden's ears. The All-Dao Elephant was speaking to her. The beast was able to see through the void, and it was confident that it could guide the Divine Maiden to escape. However, doing so would mean abandoning G.o.d's Domain.

The Divine Maiden continued to stare intently at the distant form of Di Qiong. He looked back at her with open interest. "Don't you want to know where the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant is?"

"Did you capture it?" This was the only possibility she could think of.

Di Qiong sneered. "It's in the Origin Universe, in a place called the Daosource Sect."

The Divine Maiden’s eyes snapped over to Lu Yin. The Origin Universe, Daosource Sect? Isn’t that where Lu Yin and his people are from?

The moment that Lu Yin heard Di Qiong mention the Daosource Sect, he knew that things had turned for the worst. The Divine Maiden was aware that Lu Yin and his companions were from the Origin Universe, and she had heard them mention the Daosource Sect.

Sure enough, the Divine Maiden instantly turned to look at Lu Yin.

Di Qiong frowned, and he also turned to look at Lu Yin. He had only mentioned the Origin Universe and the Daosource Sect in order to tease the Divine Maiden. She should not know these names, but the moment she heard them, she had instantly looked at this man who was recklessly rus.h.i.+ng towards Di Qiong in a suicidal manner. Di Qiong had regarded the young man as too insignificant to bother with, as he could be easily crushed, but at this moment, he turned to stare at the Semi-Progenitor.

Lu Yin sighed. Such was fate. He could have at least struck Di Qiong in the back with the slipper during a sneak attack, but the Divine Maiden had complicated things.

The Divine Maiden had been born in G.o.d's Domain and knew little about the rest of the megaverse. If she had not received the recognition of the universe that held G.o.d's Domain, she could have never wielded the power of the four elephants, let alone fight against someone like Di Qiong. She controlled the greatest combat strength in her universe, but she lacked the corresponding experience.

If she were an experienced cultivator, she would have never exposed Lu Yin.

Since Lu Yin had been exposed, there was no choice but to fight. He used Inverse Step to move at the speed of time. As he moved, he sent a message to the Divine Maiden, "Prepare to escape to these coordinates I just shared with you. That’s the only place where we can hope to corner Di Qiong and offer any bit of hope to your G.o.d’s Domain."

While the Divine Maiden lacked combat experience, she was not dumb. She immediately understood what Lu Yin meant and instantly told the person who had gone with Lu Yin to tear the void and connect their universe to Aeternus Nation. Despite the Divine Maiden’s reluctance to get involved in the war between the Sixverse a.s.sociation and Aeternus, Di Qiong was clearly an enemy of the Sixverse a.s.sociation, and G.o.d's Domain’s situation could not get much worse. She had to seize any chance to save her homeland.

Everything around Lu Yin froze as he moved at the speed of time. He slapped the slipper at Di Qiong, striking him right in the back of his head and knocking him to the ground.

Lu Yin was astonished by his own success. His slipper was rarely effective against opponents at this level. Even the Seven-Star Mantis had been wary enough to do everything possible to dodge the slipper when Lu Yin had used it.

How could Di Qiong possibly fail to dodge Lu Yin’s Inverse Step? If he were so incapable, then his formidable physical strength would be completely useless.

Lu Yin continued to use Inverse Step and chased after Di Qiong, trying to slap him again with the slipper.

There was a deafening crash as Di Qiong smashed into the ground. Lu Yin was right behind him, and he tried to hit him again with the slipper, but suddenly, everything changed. Inexplicably, Lu Yin froze in the process of swinging the slipper. He was held in place by some indescribable force. In front of him, he saw the cold, pupilless eyes of Di Qiong.

Pages circled around. It was as though Lu Yin had left G.o.d's Domain and appeared in a new universe. A Progenitor’s world?

One of the pages showed the same action that Lu Yin was in the middle of making, and it glowed slightly. Lu Yin watched in confusion, curious about what was about to happen.

"You aren’t from G.o.d's Domain," Di Qiong stated in a deep voice that was cold enough to chill a person to the bone.

The back of his head was throbbing, and it had been years since he had felt such pain. This young man had actually managed to hurt him, Di Qiong—and with a slipper?

Looking at the slipper in Lu Yin's hand caused Di Qiong to grow furious. He felt insulted, having been struck with such a thing. "You're seeking death!"

Lu Yin's expression changed, and he fled with Inverse Step. It was clear that he could not swing the slipper again, but he was still able to retreat. Could it be that he could perform actions that were not shown on the pages, but would be prevented from duplicating a displayed action? Was that how Di Qiong’s Progenitor’s world functioned?

Time froze once again, which allowed Lu Yin to retreat while Di Qiong froze again. Lu Yin tried to slap the man with the slipper again, but he froze mid-swing like before.

"The power of time? Boy, who are you?" Di Qiong raised a hand, and his long spear flew to him from the distance. It pointed at Lu Yin as all of G.o.d’s Domain started to crumble, accompanied by the wailing of countless people.

Lu Yin knew that it would be impossible to attack Di Qiong again, so he made his way to the Divine Maiden.

She was close to the spatial tear that was directly connected to Aeternus Nation.

"Go!" Lu Yin shouted as he charged forward.

The Divine Maiden clenched her teeth and went through the tear.

The three elephants shrank down, suppressing their wounds as they also rushed towards the tear.

Behind them, Di Qiong casually waved a hand to tear apart the universe that housed G.o.d's Domain. He then pa.s.sed through the spatial tear without any hesitation. There was nothing in the universe of G.o.d’s Domain that could threaten Di Qiong, but the young man had to die. The back of Di Qiong’s head was still in agony. After he had undergone a Pupilless Transformation, he had thought that not even the other Three Pillars and Six Skies could hurt him so badly. Just what was the deal with that slipper?

That one slap had nearly split Di Qiong’s head open, and it also seemed oddly familiar. He felt like he must have seen it somewhere before.

After pa.s.sing through the spatial tear. Lu Yin was once again in Aeternus Nation. He immediately alerted the Heavens Sect and asked for Big Sis, Arch-Elder Zen, and Ancestor Lu Tianyi to help him.

They would not try to corner and kill Di Qiong, but rather force him to retreat.

Unfortunately, Ancestor Lu Tianyi and many others had been injured during the invasion of the Scourge. Otherwise, it might have been possible to kill Di Qiong. Even with the three powerhouses, it would be difficult to prevent Di Qiong from leaving whenever he wished.

The Divine Maiden and the three elephants rushed through the spatial tear at the same time.

Di Qiong followed them and immediately turned to face Lu Yin, who reacted by unleas.h.i.+ng 100 confined punches. Di Qiong countered with his own powerful punch, proving that his physical prowess was unmatched.

The resulting impact caused Aeternus Nation to tremble, and many people looked up to see the sky above them grow dark.

Lu Yin dodged to the side. As he moved, the place where he had been standing disintegrated into the Hollow. Sweat beaded along his forehead. He could not match Di Qiong’s physical strength, but even so, Di Qiong was surprised. "You actually dodged my punch? That punch of yours was also quite impressive. Kid, just who are you?"

The Divine Maiden attacked, and a hand of light pressed down. However, the three elephants had all been gravely injured, and they were unable to offer much a.s.sistance.

Di Qiong raised his spear and easily pierced through the descending hand, completely uninterested in the Divine Maiden. His attention was solely focused on Lu Yin. Di Qiong was very curious about how someone who was not even a peak powerhouse had such extraordinary combat strength. The young man had already proven himself capable of unleas.h.i.+ng attacks that even some sequence powerhouses might not be able to withstand.

Suddenly, Di Qiong’s expression changed. "You’re Lu Yin!"

The only living person in the entire megaverse who could match a sequence powerhouse with the cultivation of a Semi-Progenitor was Lu Yin.

Di Qiong had never seen Lu Yin, as he had not been involved in the invasion of the First Scourge, but the man had still heard of Lu Yin. As one of the Three Pillars and Six Skies, Di Qiong had been impressed by Lu Yin’s accomplishments, and after facing him in battle, Di Qiong had guessed correctly, simply because there was no possibility other than Lu Yin.

Lu Yin had no intention of hiding his ident.i.ty, and his Champions' Stage appeared. "Di Qiong, which Scourge do you govern?"

Di Qiong stared at Lu Yin for a moment before laughing. "So it really is you! Lu Yin, this is quite interesting. You forced the First Scourge to seal itself off, which has made the other Scourges offer their support. I went to eliminate G.o.d's Domain because we no longer have time to waste, and I was afraid that they might escape. That’s why I decided to destroy them quickly. I didn’t expect to run into you so quickly.

"You truly live up to Progenitor Xi’s evaluation, but regardless, you're still going to die. How will you stop me by yourself when all of you together failed against the First Scourge? How interesting, I will achieve what that Scourge failed to do."

As Di Qiong spoke, his spear rose and then smashed down towards Lu Yin. The tip of the spear sliced through the void, instantly arriving before Lu Yin.

Beneath him, the Seven-Star Mantis appeared, and it unfurled its six pairs of wings and flew off.
