Chapter 1977: Attack

"What's wrong?" God of Mirrors asked.

Suddenly, God of Magenta appeared as well. "You don't need to tell me where you’re going—I'll just go along with you. As long as you don't tell me the location, you won’t be violating your oath."

God of Mirrors was becoming more and more upset with the other man. "God of Magenta, you-"

Right at that moment, God of Magenta's pupils transformed into runes as he stared at God of Mirrors, weakening the man. As his eyes locked onto God of Mirrors and weakened him, something was suddenly created out of nothing. A newly appeared blade stabbed into God of Mirrors’ heart so suddenly that the man could not even react.

He simply could not believe what was happening.

At this same instant, all of the mirrors in Gods’ Origin shattered. God of Mirrors had been given his title because his innate gift was Mirror World, and it allowed him to travel through mirrors.

God of Wind had destroyed all of the mirrors in Gods’ Origin.

God of Mirrors vomited a massive amount of blood as the sharp blade in the heart disappeared nearly instantly. Truesight was truly a miraculous ability.

God of Magenta sneered, and as he did so, someone stepped out of the void next to him. It was a person with a familiar face, a face that was hated by everyone in Gods' Origin: Jin Mie.

God of Mirrors' pupils shrank. His face was incredibly pale, and he struggled to remain standing on his feet. He stared at Jin Mie, and then looked at God of Magenta. "You- why?"

Jin Mie sneered. "I told you that he’d be shocked."

God of Magenta stared at God of Mirrors. "Tell me the location. You don’t have to worry about your cultivation being impacted by breaking your oath any longer. Tell me the location, and I’ll save you, and you can join us. You will remain as you have been here in Gods’ Origin. Nothing will change for you, God of Mirrors."

God of Mirrors gritted his teeth as he glared at God of Magenta. "You’ve betrayed Gods' Origin!"

He then looked back at God of Wind. "You’ve also become a traitor."

"She can’t be considered a traitor, as she’s always followed me," God of Magenta retorted indifferently.

God of Mirrors stared at God of Magenta. "Why?"

God of Magenta's eyes flickered. "Tell me the location."

"Why did you betray Gods' Origin? Why are you working with Jin Mie?" God of Mirrors started shouting as his eyes flickered between God of Magenta, Jin Mie, and God of Wind. Both God of Magenta and God of Wind took a step back, but half of God of Wind's body suddenly vanished, gone without a sound. It seemed that she did not even realize what had happened to her body.

There had been no signs of an attack, but this was how Truesight worked and how those who followed the cultivation system of Rune Technology fought.

Even an Envoy could disappear without a trace.

God of Magenta laid a hand on God of Wind's shoulder and started reforming her body. Meanwhile, Jin Mie waved a hand, causing a sharp blade to appear. As the weapon moved to attack God of Mirrors, it twitched and shifted back as though it was about to attack Jin Mie instead. Jin Mie grew serious, and the blade started shifting back and forth between God of Mirrors and Jin Mie.

Cough!

God of Mirrors vomited more blood. God of Magenta stared at the man’s injury with a chilling light in his eyes. Almost without notice, the wound on God of Mirrors’ chest started to grow, and the flesh and blood there vanished as runes were erased. The man instantly utilized the absolute defense of the Knowing realm of Truesight to block God of Magenta's attack.action

While none of the people present were moving, they were in the midst of a chilling battle.

Most of God of Wind's body was restored, and she stood there, trembling and pale. She had almost been unmade in that instant. If she had completely disappeared, she would have been gone forever. Unless an even more powerful Truesight practitioner took action, it would spell her death.

Suddenly, God of Mirrors' injury worsened, and he started gasping for breath.

"How long can you endure?" Jin Mie sneered. He looked up, and sharp blades appeared all around God of Mirrors, cutting off all paths of escape in the air and on the ground.

God of Mirrors stared at God of Magenta alone. "Why are you working with that traitor? God of Flames never treated you badly."

God of Magenta said nothing.

"Why?" God of Mirrors roared. He still could not believe this bizarre development.

"Stop your ranting. Either tell us the location, or a traitor of Gods' Origin. Once you’re dead, your face will replace mine," Jin Mie said impatiently.

God of Mirrors' expression changed completely. Having his face placed upon one of those giant statues would label him as a traitor to Gods’ Origin, which was a shame that could never be erased. "Jin Mie, you’re the traitor! All of you are traitors! Just wait! God of Flames will leave seclusion, and none of you will be able to escape!"

Jin Mie just laughed. "God of Flames? You're overthinking things. I went to where he’s in seclusion to see him, and let me tell you what I found there.”

As the man spoke, a smile appeared on his face. “There was no one. No God of Flames. No one in seclusion there at all. He cultivated into nothingness and disappeared." Jin Mie smirked.

God of Mirrors' eyes grew large. "Impossible! God of Flames has been in seclusion to become a Semi-Progenitor and to master a higher level of Truesight."

Jin Mie shook his head and glanced over at God of Magenta.

God of Magenta spoke up, "He’s really gone. If not, how would we dare to do anything here? God of Flames failed to achieve his breakthrough, and he disappeared while in seclusion. Isn’t that what you just tried to do to God of Wind? Make her disappear?"

God of Mirrors clenched his hands into fists. "I don't believe you!"

God of Magenta replied, "That’s enough. Give us the location and die easily, or you can join us and live. Otherwise, you’ll die and be labeled a traitor to Gods' Origin. Even if Jin Mie is here, no one knows that I’ve been working with him, so nothing will happen to us.”

God of Mirrors was mourning Gods’ Origin. At their peak, they had stood on the same level as the Cosmic Sect and the Mavis family, practically peerless in the Fifth Mainland. No one had dared go against them. However, one traitor had appeared after another within their midst, and it was possible that God of Flames really was gone. If not, why else would Jin Mie and God of Magenta have the courage to move against Gods' Origin?

"Brother Magenta, it looks like he still won’t agree, so just forget about convincing him. Besides, Truesight isn’t your primary strength," Jin Mie said.

God of Magenta frowned as he stared at God of Mirrors. "Last chance."

God of Mirrors glared at God of Magenta with bloodshot eyes. "I just want to know why you betrayed us. You were given everything here in Gods' Origin."

God of Magenta shook his head. "It looks like you simply want to die."

"He won't tell, but I will." A new voice suddenly spoke up, and hearing it caused both God of Magenta and Jin Mie’s expressions to completely change. Everyone present turned to look in the same direction, and they all saw that Lu Yin had appeared at some point in time, and he was simply leaning against the wall, watching them as though he was enjoying a very interesting show. There was even a smile on his face that reached his eyes.

God of Magenta's pupils constricted. "Lu Yin?"

Jin Mie's expression twisted, and his heart sank.

Lu Yin started applauding. "This was wonderful, really wonderful! I didn't expect to stumble upon such a great show! This has been great!"

God of Mirrors had also not expected to see Lu Yin. He struggled to believe his eyes. “Alliance Leader Lu, why are you here again?"

Lu Yin focused on God of Mirrors. "Do you want to know why God of Magenta betrayed you? That’s because his name is actually Xia Ji."

God of Mirrors was stunned. He could not believe this at all. "The Semi-Progenitor from the Seven Courts’ Xia family?"

Lu Yin turned to look at God of Magenta. "Isn’t that right, old man?"

God of Magenta's expression had soured, but he was frighteningly calm. “I don’t even know how to respond to such nonsense."

Lu Yin clasped his hands behind his back. "Some time ago, I was kidnapped by Xia Ji himself, as he wanted to force me to give him a secret regarding the Cosmic Art, and he even tried to pry the God of Death’s inheritance from me. The place that he took me to was your Gods’ Origin’s Envoy-level Platform of Trials, which is why God of Magenta ordered God of Wind to prevent me from visiting that place and recognizing it. Am I right?"

God of Magenta's expression grew worse and worse as Lu Yin spoke. "Junior, it doesn’t matter if you insist on accusing me of being Xia Ji, but why don’t you go confront the Xia family’s Semi-Progenitor to get your revenge if you’re able? I won’t entertain your nonsense here."

The man then tore through the void as he and Jin Mie both entered the true universe in an attempt to escape.

They would not care about Lu Yin if he were alone, but Lu Yin was never far from the Second Nightking, and no one present was an opponent for that old monster.

However, one had to be capable of escaping before they could do so. A terrifying powerhouse who was inferior only to Semi-Progenitors within the Human Domain was present while these two men only had a power level that was slightly higher than 700,000. They were both instantly smacked out of the true universe, and the Second Nightking appeared with a raised hand. The two men were locked in place, unable to move at all.

Fury covered God of Magenta's face, and a terrifying aura erupted from him. His power level instantly shot past 700,000, approaching a level of a million.

Jin Mie showed no surprise, and instead he turned to stare at Lu Yin. The man’s pupils transformed into runes, and he attempted to erase Lu Yin from existence.

Lu Yin had never lowered his guard. If God of Magenta was Xia Ji’s clone, then even if the clone was weaker than the original body, his power level should still be at least a million. How could a Semi-Progenitor’s clone only possess a power level of 700,000? Once God of Magenta revealed his full strength, he started attacking the Second Nightking, which meant that Lu Yin was left with Jin Mie as his opponent.

Jin Mie favored sneak attacks. He had first ambushed God of Mirrors, and he had also just tried to do the same to Lu Yin.

God of Mirrors instantly retaliated, and the two men clashed with Truesight right in front of Lu Yin. There was a blast of wind that ruffled Lu Yin’s hair.

Jin Mie shot a cold glare at God of Mirrors before decisively turning to run away. Regardless of how much God of Magenta’s strength had surged, it was impossible for him to measure up to the Second Nightking, so Jin Mie wanted to get as far away as possible.

Lu Yin raised a hand and released a Hollow Palm.

Jin Mie's entire body was protected by Truesight, and the Hollow Palm was instantly weakened when it touched the protective barrier. Still, a portion of the palm strike landed on Jin Mie, causing him to stumble.

The man was horrified. How had Lu Yin managed to become so powerful? He had clearly been a weakling just a short time ago during the war in the Cosmic Sea.

Given Lu Yin's current strength, how could Jin Mie possibly escape?

An astral chessboard appeared beneath Lu Yin’s feet, and he suddenly disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already in front of Jin Mie. The man had entered the true universe, but he was still blocked by Lu Yin.

"Move!" Jin Mie screamed when he saw Lu Yin in his path. Blood and tears streamed down from man’s eyes as he tried to erase Lu Yin’s existence.

Lu Yin just sneered as a horrifying surge of strength erupted from him. The number of Lu Yin’s runes increased without end. While Truesight was a miraculous cultivation system, it was impossible to surpass overwhelming strength. On top of that, Lu Yin also practiced Truesight, rendering Jin Mie’s attack useless.

Lu Yin calmly raised a hand and lashed out again.

Jin Mie quickly tried to utilize the Knowing realm of Truesight, which was Truesight’s most powerful defense.

Lu Yin's eyes lit up, and he stepped backwards. As he stepped backwards, he moved closer and closer to Jin Mie.

The man was initially confused by what he saw, but when he realized that Lu Yin was getting closer, Jin Mie sensed a bit of turbulence in space that made him uncomfortable. He was suddenly unable to maintain the Knowing realm’s absolute defense.

Inverse Step had allowed Lu Yin to instantly shatter Jin Mie’s Knowing realm mastery of Truesight.

Jin Mie could not believe this sudden change. How could a mere movement technique shatter Truesight?

In the past, Lu Yin had felt a similar sense of disbelief when Progenitor Chen’s clone had done the same thing to his own defense erected by Knowing realm. However, Lu Yin was the one shattering Truesight now. It was a wonderful feeling.

Boom!

There was a deafening sound as Jin Mie's body was blasted out of the true universe. Half of the man’s body was crushed, and he smashed into the floor of the main hall of Gods' Origin. He could not even pick himself off of the ground as he bled on the floor.

Jin Mie was pale, and blood leaked from his mouth as he stared at Lu Yin with eyes that could not accept his situation.
