Chapter 1880: Invincibility

The faces of the Sea King and the other humans spectating Lu Yin’s stellular tribulation were all aghast. Lu Yin was actually facing a humanoid stellular tribulation! Throughout time, whenever a humanoid tribulation appeared, the chances of anybody passing them was less than one in 10,000. The appearance of such a tribulation indicated that the level of talent of the person attempting the breakthrough was unbelievably high, and yet, even then, the survival rate was unbelievably low. It was clear just how horrifying these humanoid tribulations were. Also, no one could tell who this particular humanoid stellular tribulation was copying.

Lu Yin stared at the slowly approaching figure.

The stellular tribulation had manifested this figure, but it had not revealed a face. Lu Yin was very wary, and his battle force instantly covered his body as the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant reappeared behind him. He felt an unprecedented sense of danger. This opponent was incredibly threatening.

This person had been brought into existence by the stellular tribulation, and a bolt of lightning pierced through space to connect the vortex overhead to the humanoid tribulation.

Lu Yin had the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant behind him, and his pupils transformed into runes. However, when he stared at the figure before him, he was confused. Why were there so few runes?

This figure was part of a stellular tribulation, which meant that it was impossible for there to be any curios like cloakstone. The only possibility was that the person whom this figure had copied had been able to conceal their own power level.

A massive asteroid shot through the battlefield and the tribulation region, and it quickly arrived between Lu Yin and the figure.

The moment the asteroid passed by, both Lu Yin and the humanoid tribulation vanished.

Everyone was stunned. Suddenly the asteroid shattered, and Lu Yin and the humanoid figure fell back as one.

Lu Yin was shocked—aurelian force?

It had only been an instant, but the figure had used aurelian force against Lu Yin’s Immovable Heavenly King Elephant.

Across from Lu Yin, space burned and roiled around the humanoid tribulation as the aurelian force spread out. Countless onlookers started to react to this sight.

Qing Hua exclaimed, "So it's aurelian force again? I wonder who this humanoid tribulation is copying. Throughout time, very few people have grasped aurelian force and been able to surpass Chen Fan."

Lan Xian's eyes lit up. Aurelian force was a terrifying power, and yet Lu Yin was able to go up against aurelian force despite only cultivating to the level of peak battle force. This just went to show how much more terrifying Lu Yin’s potential was.

Lu Yin raised his head high. So what if he was facing aurelian force? The fist from a moment ago had been unable to do anything to Lu Yin, and this person would be no different. Lu Yin moved his hand to attack: Hollow Palm.

With the visualization method of the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant, a tenfold increase in power meant that Lu Yin’s Hollow Palm beyond intimidating. In the past, he had been able to make Envoys with power levels of over 600,000 cough up blood and frighten experts with power levels of 700,000. At this moment, a single Hollow Palm was strong enough to cause even an Envoy with a power level of more than 700,000 to spit up blood.

This tenfold increase in power had brought about a qualitative change in Lu Yin’s Hollow Palm.

The humanoid tribulation was struck head on by the Hollow Palm, and the body tumbled over. Not even the figure’s aurelian force was able to arrest its momentum.

Just as the humanoid tribulation was forced to retreat, its body trembled, and a second figure emerged from the first. The second figure raised a hand, and stars appeared and began to revolve around the figure.

This sight caused Lu Yin’s expression to completely change. The Cosmic Art? No, two people who were one person? Was this the Nine Clones Secret Technique?

To the south, Jiu Shen was left dazed. "Progenitor Chen…"

The moment he spoke the name, everyone was startled.

Ya Mavis could not believe her ears. "Elder Jiu Shen, what did you just say?"

Everyone turned to look at the old man.

Jiu Shen gritted his teeth. His eyes blazed with a fanatical light, and his breathing grew ragged as he stared at the humanoid tribulation. “Clones and the Cosmic Art. There has only ever been one person throughout history who has possessed both of those techniques at the same time, and that is Progenitor Chen! Those simulated stars are formed from star energy, not stellular energy. Which other Enlighter in history could be capable of facing Lu Yin at his level? That humanoid tribulation is a copy of Progenitor Chen!"

On the other side of the tribulation, Xu Qing's pupils fluctuated. "The humans’ Nine Clones Secret Technique and the Cosmic Art? Could it be?"

"Progenitor Chen." The Celestial Demon who stood next to Xu Qing looked quite upset at this moment.

Elsewhere, Qing Hua was shocked by what he saw, and Lan Xian's complexion had also changed. From the perspective of those from the Sixth Mainland, Progenitor Chen had not been a hero, but even they were unable to deny his power and invincibility.

Progenitor Chen had been the symbol of his era. At one point, the Ancient Progenitors had become mere legends, and people had started to believe that more recent Progenitors were unable to compare to the Progenitors of the ancient past. It had been believed that humans had regressed. However, Progenitor Chen had been a Progenitor from a more recent era who had lived during the era of the Daosource Sect, and who would claim that Progenitor Chen was an example of humanity’s regression?

During his time, Progenitor Chen’s name had been synonymous with invincibility. He had slaughtered multiple Progenitors at the same time, and the Sixth Mainland had eventually refused to even write down his name. Progenitor Chen had monopolized two Mountains and one Sea and had been regarded as invincible in the entire universe. Invincibility. It was a word that seemed to have been made specifically for Progenitor Chen.

After winning ZENITH, Lu Yin had been regarded as peerless. After he returned from the Perennial World, he had crossed realms to challenge Envoys. As his cultivation improved, he had eventually reached the point where he could challenge Envoys with power levels of around 700,000. Had anyone else in all of history ever managed to do the same? It was possible, but there were no records of such deeds.

During Lu Yin’s stellular tribulation, he had faced both a Celestial Demon and a fist shrouded with aurelian force. Both of those tribulations had been copied from Envoys. However, at the moment, Lu Yin’s opponent was very clearly not an Envoy

Throughout all of time, just how many humans had possessed the strength to fight against Lu Yin before becoming an Envoy?

This was something that not even the Sixth Mainland’s Progenitor of Combat or Progenitor of Bloodlines could say with confidence, and neither could the Perennial World’s Progenitors. Just how strong had those powerhouses been while they were in the Enlighter realm?

Progenitor Chen was able to contend against Lu Yin. The man who had been regarded as invincible across the ages was the only one who could compare to Lu Yin.

It was impossible to say if the stellular tribulation had copied Progenitor Chen, or if Progenitor Chen had taken advantage of the tribulation to challenge Lu Yin across space and time.

The only thing that anyone watching knew was that they were witnessing the battle of the two most powerful Enlighters throughout all of history. Even if one looked back at the ancient era, it would be practically impossible to find any Enlighter comparable to the two who were fighting at this moment.

In the middle of outer space, beneath the vortex that was the stellular tribulation, Lu Yin stood and stared intently at his humanoid tribulation as his breathing grew ragged. He was looking at a figure who was using the Cosmic Art, and it was a clone of the first figure Lu Yin had faced. An uncontrollable arrogance surged up within Lu Yin. “Progenitor Chen! You’re Progenitor Chen!"

He looked up at his stellular tribulation and laughed heartily. Aside from Progenitor Chen, who else could stop him?

Lu Yin had heard of Progenitor Chen countless times before, and every time he had heard about the man, he had been referred to as invincible. It seemed that Progenitor Chen’s name could never be separated from the concept of invincibility.

Lu Yin had no idea whether or not anyone had ever defeated Progenitor Chen, but Lu Yin had to do just that. Only by defeating Progenitor Chen could Lu Yin complete his breakthrough and become an Envoy.

They were both Enlighters, and eons separated them, and yet this stellular tribulation had brought the two together.

During ZENITH, Lu Yin had only managed to endure and eventually defeat Shang Qing's Tri-Yang Ancestral Qi Technique because of the God of Death Transformation. That was also after considering the fact that Shang Qing had only been able to summon two of Progenitor Chen’s clones. For his tribulation, Lu Yin was facing Progenitor Chen at the peak of the Enlighter realm and at full power.

Soon, it would be made clear whether Progenitor Chen was truly invincible or if Lu Yin was indeed peerless.

Boom boom boom…

The stars exploded. Progenitor Chen was the creator of the Cosmic Art, and at this moment, the figure showed his ability to move and control the stars, which meant that Progenitor Chen had already created the Cosmic Art while only an Enlighter. While there were not as many stars as what Lu Yin was able to simulate, that was only because Lu Yin had used his Timestop ability and the Origin Sutra to accelerate his mastery of the Cosmic Art. Still, Progenitor Chen was the original creator of the Cosmic Art, and naturally, his comprehension of the art vastly outstripped Lu Yin’s.

Every single star seemed to be alive.

Elder Jiu Shen exclaimed, "The Cosmic Nature Realm! I only managed to reach this level of mastery after surpassing my fourth tribulation, and yet Progenitor Chen reached this level while only an Enlighter? Amazing!"action

"Progenitor Chen was the founder of the technique in the first place," Liu Huang said admiringly.

Progenitor Chen’s appearance had completely eclipsed the fact that he was literally Lu Yin’s stellular tribulation. Everyone’s attention had been diverted from Lu Yin’s tribulation to his match with Progenitor Chen.

Even the people that were the most confident in Lu Yin did not believe he could pass his tribulation at this moment, and it was solely because he was facing Progenitor Chen. Progenitor Chen was hailed as invincible throughout his life, and he had never suffered defeat. It was impossible for someone at the same level to defeat Progenitor Chen. Lu Yin simply did not stand a chance.

Lu Yin suddenly started using the Cosmic Art himself. While he was able to simulate a greater number of stars, the strength of Lu Yin’s Cosmic Art was only comparable to that of Progenitor Chen’s clone.

In the end, Lu Yin’s comprehension of the technique could not compare to Progenitor Chen's.

One of the clones used the Cosmic Art, and the stars coalesced to form a sword as the clone used the Celestial Sword Technique to instantly attack.

Simultaneously, Lu Yin used the same Celestial Sword.

The two Celestial Swords struck in the middle of space, twisting the void and causing spatial cracks to spread out from the point of impact. All of a sudden, another clone emerged. It took control of the Celestial Sword Technique and instantly attacked Lu Yin by using the Xia family’s Triple Blade Will.

This slash of the Xia family's Triple Blade Will had already been merged into a single attack, and the Celestial Sword swept across the sky. The spectators felt as if they could not look directly at the sharp edge.

Lu Yin raised his sword and retaliated: Fourteenth Sword.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

Both sides were using the Celestial Sword as their weapon, but one used the Xia family’s Triple Blade Will while reforming the Celestial Sword into the shape of a knife to perfectly utilize the technique. The other side used the Fourteenth Sword, which was an even more advanced sword technique than the Celestial Sword. The blades struck in a contest of swordsmanship, but the spectators could only see space being sliced apart.

Countless mouths fell open. Was this really a fight between Enlighters?

One of Progenitor Chen’s clones appeared above Lu Yin’s head, releasing a punch that was strengthened by aurelian force. It was the first clone that had appeared during this tribulation. So far, three of Progenitor Chen’s clones had appeared.

Lu Yin released a Hollow Palm when he saw the aurelian force, and the invisible palm sent Progenitor Chen’s clone tumbling backwards yet again. No matter if it was the Cosmic Art, swordsmanship, or physical power, Lu Yin was not inferior to Progenitor Chen in any aspect, and he even somewhat surpassed the young Progenitor. This was something that most people had not expected.

Who was it that said that modern cultivators could not compare to ancient powerhouses?

At that moment, Lu Yin felt a sense of crisis from behind, as well as a sharp pain in his back. He then remembered that Progenitor Chen had also had an invisible clone.

At this thought, an astral chessboard appeared beneath Lu Yin’s feet, and he moved.

As that happened, the invisible clone chased after Lu Yin, and the clone using the Cosmic Art caused the stars to move and impede Lu Yin’s speed.

Lu Yin reappeared a short distance away, and the clone that used aurelian force suddenly started to grow, which caused the aurelian force to spread out, seemingly without end. This clone was the one with the colossal giants’ bloodline.

Lu Yin used the Ce Secret Art to escape once again, but this time, it somehow failed. It was the Xia Secret Art: Nullify. It was the secret art that could see through all techniques.

The invisible clone closed in and then fused with one of the other clones before raising a hand to attack with the Triple Blade Will. A fist covered with aurelian force dropped down from above, and it was no weaker than Chen Fan’s fist that Lu Yin had faced earlier in his tribulation. In fact, Progenitor Chen’s aurelian force was even more powerful than what Lu Yin had faced from Chen Fan.

Lu Yin's expression grew solemn. He was surrounded by four of Progenitor Chen’s clones. Lu Yin was actually fighting against the true power of Progenitor Chen. Lu Yin’s strength had given him the confidence to fight against any Enlighter, and yet he had been forced onto the back foot against Progenitor Chen. The invincible powerhouse lived up to his reputation.

A smile tugged at Lu Yin’s mouth. This was interesting.

At that moment, he used Truesight and utilized it at the Knowing realm.

Boom!

The fist dropped down at the same time that the Triple Blade Will struck.

However, Lu Yin was perfectly fine, aside from a few wrinkles that had appeared on his clothes.

Countless people stared, wide-eyed and completely confused.

To the south, Elder Jiu Shen’s eyebrows rose high. The Knowing realm of Truesight. The Rune Progenitor truly created a miraculous technique.

Lan Xian's eyes flickered. "The method created by another powerhouse who was denied by history despite creating an entire cultivation civilization. The Rune Progenitor against Progenitor Chen. This is wonderful!"

She was a Semi-Progenitor, and she had never expected to be enthralled by a battle between mere Enlighters.
