Star Odyssey Chapter 3270: Overbearing Rejection

Chapter 3270: Overbearing Rejection

Lu Yin had no time to ponder over the phenomenon. Lightstream appeared beside him, and he looked at the boat with a resolute glint in his eyes. He knew that the time had come.

As Lightstream drifted away, ripples spread through s.p.a.ce. These ripples were not caused by some kind of power, but were rather actual ripples, like what appeared on water. As the boat's speed increased, the flow became more apparent. Finally, Lightstream disappeared from everyone’s sight.

When the boat vanished, so did Lu Yin.

"Little Seven," Lu Yuan said anxiously.

Beside him, Wu Tian marveled, "So that’s what it means to traverse the River of Aeons. Time and s.p.a.ce have always been around us, never disappearing. It’s just invisible to ordinary people."

"That little boat can cross the River of Aeons, traveling upstream, disappearing with the Pillar. This isn't reversal, but rather traversal."

Chu Yi wore a solemn expression. "To cross the River of Aeons and travel through time. That’s what his boat can do."

Everyone still on the Immemorial Citadel’s battlefield was astonished to see that it really was possible to traverse the River of Aeons. While most of them were sequence powerhouses, very few had ever seen the River of Aeons.

While the Three Realms and Six Daos were able to interact with the River of Aeons, they had always refrained from doing so because of the Origin Progenitor. However, their reasons did not necessarily apply to others.

Lu Yin had already shown that he was capable of fighting against sequence powerhouses and even Ortusers. He had even defeated the Three Pillars and Six Skies, but that only proved his combat power. It did not mean that he was capable of the same feats as someone in the Origin realm.

Before becoming a full Progenitor, Lu Yin had not known how to save Ming Yan, but the moment he broke through, he had understood.

If one’s cultivation could be determined by their strength, it would make things far simpler.

Realms determined what cultivators were capable of, not the other way around.

There were times when, even if someone’s strength reached an amazing level, it would be useless without the corresponding cultivation realm. When a person’s cultivation realm aligned with their power level, they would be capable of unleas.h.i.+ng far more power, which would essentially elevate their cultivation realm to a new level.

For Lu Yin, there had been a significant gap between his power level and his cultivation realm.

He had finally become a peak powerhouse, and he was now a genuine Progenitor.

"Wait, if he travels to the past by traversing the River of Aeons, then if he changes how Aeternus escaped, what will happen to the present? Won’t that change as well?" someone shouted. He was a powerhouse from the Immemorial Citadel. The man had lost his legs, but he remained upright and stable through sheer willpower.

He did not want the past to change. Things had turned out for the best. The Immemorial Citadel had survived, and there was meaning behind all the sacrifices that the man’s comrades, family, and brothers had made.

Mister Mu spoke up, "Traveling to the past only allows a person to alter their karmic past. The karmic future that they altered from their karmic past will not affect others, as those things are independent of a person’s own actions. This is much like reversing the River of Aeons. Doing so does not change things, as even if the karmic future is altered, events will still naturally follow the flow of the River of Aeons. You don’t need to worry."

Most people did not understand all that Mister Mu said, but no one asked any further questions. His answer just seemed to make sense.

Mister Mu looked wistful. It was impossible to alter the past or the future. If such were possible, how could his own megaverse have fallen?

Far away, Lu Yin was standing on Lightstream. The River of Aeons had manifested, and Lu Yin was traveling upstream. Images continuously flickered around him.

It was not easy to travel along the River of Aeons. A single mistake could cause Lu Yin’s boat to capsize.

At the moment, Lu Yin was experiencing a situation that was strikingly similar to when Big Sis had fallen into the River of Aeons and lost her cultivation. Lu Yin had willingly entered the River of Aeons, and he was moving upstream.

He saw his destination, and the small boat suddenly stopped. As it did, everything around Lu Yin changed. Images flashed by, which were the same scenes that he had seen while on the River of Aeons, but this time, they appeared in chronological order, rather than reversed. It was as though Lu Yin had entered the past from the future and needed to watch time pa.s.s until it caught up to the present.

When Lu Yin regained his senses, he found that he was still standing in a dark point in outer s.p.a.ce, but he was no longer anywhere near the Immemorial Citadel. Instead, he was in front of countless pairs of slitted scarlet eyes. Shaman G.o.d stood at the forefront, and he stared at Lu Yin in utter disbelief.

"Traveling across time itself? Dao Monarch Lu, you are truly courageous," True G.o.d’s voice rang out.

Lu Yin was on the Ossis Ark, and he was completely surrounded by Aeternus’s most elite warriors.

Lu Yin had sailed along the River of Aeons, which changed his physical location to the Ossis Ark. When the Aeternals had fled, Lu Yin had traveled with it. This change had then flowed down the River of Aeons. There was no way to change this any further, not unless someone else traveled up the River of Aeons.

While Lu Yin had altered his location in the past, that had not altered anything regarding his Progenitor’s breakthrough. It was as though the River of Aeons had been briefly reversed, but eventually, everything would continue to flow downstream.

Lu Yin sailed along the River of Aeons, but the River of Aeons was not reversed. If his actions would affect his breakthrough, Lu Yin would not have been able to return to the past.

Since he had left the Immemorial Citadel’s battlefield on the Ossis Ark, at the moment, Lu Yin was the only person present, aside from the numerous Aeternals.

Confronted by the countless slitted scarlet eyes, Lu Yin peered into the depths of the Ossis Ark at a figure which was bathed in golden light. "Yong Heng, I came to send you all on your way."

As soon as Lu Yin spoke, he threw a punch straight forward.

The presence of the bones of fallen powerhouses meant that the Ossis Ark was continuously producing powerful corpse kings from those remains. True G.o.d’s innate gift of bone grafting made the Ossis Ark a terrifying weapon and granted it the ability to face off against the Immemorial Citadel and all the powerhouses there. There had even been a point in time when the Ossis Ark had overpowered the city.

Lu Yin had given chase not only to pursue True G.o.d, but also to destroy the Ossis Ark.

Unless the Ossis Ark was destroyed, the Aeternals would essentially be able to travel around the megaverse in a portable Immemorial Citadel. Such a powerful force would drive countless beings to despair.

At the moment, the overwhelming power of Lu Yin’s punch instantly shattered more than a dozen corpse kings in front of him.

All the corpse kings here were as powerful as sequence powerhouses. When Lu Yin had infiltrated Aeternus as Ye Bo and been sent to the Immemorial Citadel’s battlefield, such corpse kings could easily kill the city’s best warriors when facing them one-on-one. Those same monsters were obliterated by just one punch from Lu Yin.

Several more corpse kings appeared behind him, and various sequence particles quickly spread out and enveloped the Ossis Ark.

Lu Yin unleashed his inner universe, and Verdant Eternity surrounded the Ossis Ark.

At that same moment, all the sequence particles were repelled from Lu Yin. Cracks opened on the Ossis Ark as Lu Yin’s inner universe fought against the universe that the Ossis Ark was in, and was rejected. The rejection between the two universes opened the Hollow.

True G.o.d's eyes narrowed. "He can’t be touched by the laws of the universe? How is that possible?"

No one could have imagined that Lu Yin, despite not being an Ortuser, was already untouchable by the laws of the universe.

This was a development that not even Lu Yin had antic.i.p.ated. His inner universe had evolved when he had truly become a Progenitor and merged his four Progenitor’s worlds with it. That transformation had granted Lu Yin an ability that should have belonged only to Ortusers; he could not be touched by the laws of the universe.

This effectively bridged what had been an impossible gap between Lu Yin and sequence powerhouses, and even those who had surpa.s.sed that particular realm.

The laws of the universe and sequence particles had always been Lu Yin's weakness, and that weakness had just been eliminated.

Within the bounds of the Ossis Ark, sequence particles could no longer be used. Lu Yin drove them back, much like how an Ortuser would. This was a tyrannical ability.

"No, he isn't just immune to the laws of the universe. Rather, he’s rejecting them," True G.o.d observed as he studied Lu Yin's inner universe. "The boy has created a universe with its own laws. Any law he does not accept cannot exist within his universe.

"This is something that not even Tai Chu was able to achieve, and yet this boy has done so."

Beside True G.o.d, Ancient G.o.d stepped forward. "I'll deal with him."

While the Ossis Ark’s corpse kings were powerful, with their sequence particles being repelled, they were defenseless before Lu Yin's overwhelming strength.

By releasing his inner universe, Lu Yin was able to observe the depths of the Ossis Ark. There, the boat was filled with countless bones that had been submerged in a white liquid. Corpse kings were constantly pulling those bones out and pressing them into their own bodies in order to evolve. There had to be at least hundreds of thousands of bones.

Those bones were Lu Yin's target.

A ma.s.sive hand slammed down in front of him. Corpse G.o.d was attacking, and he glared at Lu Yin.

Corpse G.o.d was incredibly powerful, and by merging his sequence particles with his body, he was practically indestructible.

Lu Yin raised his hand, and countless earthen spears appeared. They shot across the Ossis Ark in a wide-spread attack.

Corpse G.o.d was the first to be stabbed by the spears, and he transformed into a seed that flew towards True G.o.d. Without his sequence particles or the protection of the Mavis family’s Divine Tree, Corpse G.o.d looked fragile in Lu Yin's eyes, and he was easily destroyed.

The sight of the seed flying towards True G.o.d caused Lu Yin’s focus to spike, and the stars of his inner universe trembled. One of them shot forward and intercepted the seed before it could reach True G.o.d.

Boom!

The Ossis Ark shook violently. The star exploded, nearly destroying the seed.

True G.o.d's eyes bulged.

Lu Yin took a step forward and appeared right beside the seed. He reached out to grab it. In the end, the seed was nothing more than the manifestation of a battle technique; how could it escape from Lu Yin while within his universe?

The seed broke down, oscillating between illusory and real before quickly being crushed by Lu Yin.

True G.o.d's expression fell. His Eternal Decree was an extremely powerful ability. Any creature who had been implanted with a seed could resurrect indefinitely, which made the technique almost unbeatable. However, the stronger the battle technique, the more restrictions there were. The destruction of the seeds caused significant harm to True G.o.d.

This was why he would not use Eternal Decree unless it was absolutely necessary. His goal was to overcome Dukkha and become an Immortal with the reset of the megaverse.

The slightest flaw in his foundation could lead to failure.

If humanity was destroyed and the megaverse was reset, then True G.o.d would actually choose to abandon Eternal Decree. There were limits in the megaverse, and this particular battle technique pushed the boundaries of those limits. The megaverse would not tolerate Eternal Decree for much longer.

Yong Heng had been forced to use this technique during the final battle at the Immemorial Citadel. Because of that, even if the megaverse was reset soon, True G.o.d would not try to overcome Dukkha.

As he watched Lu Yin wreak havoc on his Ossis Ark, True G.o.d's expression grew darker and darker.

He had destroyed the once-glorious Heavens Sect and forced humanity to its knees. He had reached the cusp of being able to reset the megaverse, only to be defeated by a mere boy.

Just how old was the child?

Does he truly believe that he can stop Aeternus and the Spirit Nidus? Impossible. He can never do that.

It looked like Lu Yin sensed True G.o.d's stare, and he looked up, only to find Ancient G.o.d blocking his path to Yong Heng.

Ancient G.o.d was shrouded with a blackish-gray substance. The man radiated an intimidating pressure due to his Wielder - G.o.d battle force. A spear shot out, piercing through the void as it tore a black path across Lu Yin's inner universe. Star after star was shattered as the dark streak covered a vast distance.

Lu Yin's expression grew serious. He held a spear of dirt and thrust it at Ancient G.o.d.

The two spears struck, and a shockwave exploded, rippling out in all directions. A vast portion of the Ossis Ark was instantly obliterated.
