Chapter 2459: Power And Wisdom

A Progenitor’s stellular tribulation was beyond ruthless. The true universe treated every single potential Progenitor as an enemy.

Stellular energy was the power that the Origin Progenitor had created, but instead of fostering additional human powerhouses, he had created stellular tribulations, which prevented most people from ever becoming a Progenitor. Why was that?

"It looks like he's about to die!" Nutjob Lu roared with maniacal laughter. He was also in a miserable condition. He had successfully dodged most of Mu Xie and Lu Yin’s attacks, but the madman’s injuries were still worsening.

Lu Yin could not stop himself from looking over, and he saw that Arch-Elder Zen had already started using his Tri-Yang Ancestral Qi Technique. Even so, the old man could barely stand after surviving all of the previous tribulation trials.

Nutjob Lu sneered. "Doesn't it hurt, brat? All of them faced their stellular tribulations just for your sake, but all of them either ruined their cultivation and abandoned all hope of ever becoming a Progenitor or died during their tribulation. All of them are important to you, right? Isn’t it painful? Hahaha!”

"Every member of the Lu family will experience the pain that I suffered back then! I will make the entire Lu family disappear and rebuild it as my own Lu family."

Lu Yin looked away from Arch-Elder Zen to stare at Nutjob Lu. "No one can live solely for themselves, and not even you are an exception to that. Since you’ve experienced such misery, it only proves that you once cared deeply about someone. Would that person want to see you like this?"

Nutjob Lu's pupils constricted. "You know nothing!"

With a furious roar, red ominion energy surged from his body, completely filling the Celestial Treasury. At the same time, a purplish-black substance appeared within the ominion energy, dying the entire space a purplish-black color.

Lu Yin was horrified to find himself completely unable to move.

The jiao was started by the unfathomable pressure that had suddenly reappeared, and it howled in utter panic as it frantically tried to escape.

Mu Xie's expression turned solemn. "A Progenitor's world? No, but it's comparable. What is this?"

Lu Yin exclaimed in shock, "You've formed a Progenitor's world with your Wielder-realm battle force?"

Hen Xin had once mentioned that Dao Monarch Gu had been certain that it was possible to form the equivalent of a Progenitor's world with Wielder - Indestructible. Reaching that level of mastery over battle force was Hen Xin's dream. Once one was able to comprehend Wielder - Indestructible, they would be invincible among their peers. It was truly the ideal path of cultivation for humanity.

Nutjob Lu sneered. "Brat, I didn't want to do this, but since you’re so desperate to die, I'll grant you your wish!"

The purplish-black substance spread out even further, draining the patterns from the madman’s body. However, the purplish-black substance that filled the Celestial Treasury then started to compress, as though trying to trap Lu Yin, Mu Xie, and the jiao in an inescapable swamp.

Even the jiao was unable to break free. Strands of purplish-black matter wrapped around the limbs of all three of Nutjob Lu’s opponents, restricting their movements.

The madman took a step forward to appear directly in front of Lu Yin. Madness and cruelty danced in the man’s eyes. "I said that I would skin you and drape your hide across my Champions' Stage! I won't let anyone from the Lu family enjoy even a single moment of peace, not even in death!"

He reached out to grab Lu Yin.

Lu Yin’s head abruptly snapped up, his gaze profound. A purplish-black substance started to spread across his body as well as he released his own Wielder - Indestructible. He easily broke free from the purplish-black restrictions. A hand came up, and the Yu Secret Art was used. Nutjob Lu’s expression betrayed his complete disbelief as he was yet again slapped with the slipper.

There was no time for Lu Yin to use Extremes Must Be Reversed, as even such a slight delay would give Nutjob Lu an opportunity to escape. No matter what, the man was effectively a Progenitor.

There was a loud smack as the slipper struck Nutjob Lu's head, crushing half of his skull. He was sent crashing downwards.

"Senior Brother!" Lu Yin shouted as Mu Xie swung his hand, smashing his śarīra down.

Outside the Celestial Treasury, Bai Wangyuan and everyone else had their eyes locked onto the ongoing battle. This was the end. Nutjob Lu had underestimated Lu Xiaoxuan. The youth simply had too many odd methods at his disposal, and he was too damn unpredictable. He always found a way to scrape by at the last possible moment.

Who could have imagined that an Envoy could possess so many options that were effective even against a Progenitor? Additionally, Nutjob Lu had never expected Lu Yin to have also achieved Wielder-realm battle force.

The more one understood Wielder Realm, the more unbelievable the concept appeared.

In the past, the experiments that Nutjob Lu had gone through had gradually driven him insane. Even so, he had failed to learn Wielder - Indestructible. If he had not been imprisoned by the Lu family for so many years and persevered through the agony while diligently practicing, not to mention leveraging the power of Planet Ominion, he would have never been able to achieve Wielder-realm battle force.

What right did Lu Xiaoxuan have to it? Was his luck really that fantastic?

A single unbelievable opportunity could be attributed to pure luck, but multiple opportunities indicated that such things were simply inevitable.

Nutjob Lu was slammed deep underground once more. His eyes flared. This should not be happening! Was he truly destined to die at the hands of the Lu family? No, absolutely not! Even if he was fated to die, he could not be killed by a member of the Lu family.

The Investiture of the Gods appeared once again, and it enveloped the madman.

A wave of pressure fell from the śarīra. Lu Yin tossed the slipper over to Mu Xie, who charged forward. This time, there was no hesitation at all to be seen. He was determined to kill Nutjob Lu with this last strike.

"Lu Xiaoxuan, stop!" Bai Wangyuan shouted sternly.

Wang Fan roared, "Lu Xiaoxuan!"

Progenitor Smoke's expression showed internal feelings of conflict. After all, another Progenitor was about to die.

Boom!

A deafening noise reverberated throughout the Upper Realm. Nutjob Lu's Champions' Stage rose to block the śarīra. The stage was covered with images of various individuals and astral beasts.

Mu Xie slammed the slipper down, and the Champions' Stage shattered from the blow.

The next moment, the Investiture of the Gods rose up, radiating its signature golden light and pushing aside both the śarīra and Mu Xie.

Mu Xie slammed the slipper down yet again. Although the Investiture of the Gods had endured several blows before, it had reached its limits, and this time, the scroll was torn apart. The śarīra crashed down towards Nutjob Lu through the tears.

The madman’s eyes opened, revealing a pair of scarlet irises. He struck out with a palm, striking the śarīra.

The golden light of the Investiture of the Gods obstructed Mu Xie’s vision, leaving him unable to get a clear view of Nutjob Lu. The man only knew that his Progenitor's world was suddenly about to collapse. Mu Xie instantly spat out blood as Nutjob Lu pushed the śarīra back and attacked Mu Xie, sending the man flying.

Lu Yin quickly summoned E Chi and Nong Yi at the same time. A flurry of drifting leaves descended, slowly but surely covering the ground.

Still underground, Nutjob Lu's irises regained their original color before he leaped up. He confronted both E Chi's saber and Nong Yi's drifting leaves. The serrated blade slashed the madman’s chest open, scattering his blood. As the leaves surrounded the man, Lu Yin raised his hand and used Extremes Must Be Reversed.

With a casual flick, the slipper instantly appeared in E Chi's hand, and another slap landed.

Nutjob Lu clenched his fists, and his eyes turned scarlet once more. This time, nobody could see his eyes through the shroud of leaves.

As his eyes blazed crimson, he punched a fist forward, clashing directly against the slipper. There was a loud bang, and both the leaves and E Chi shattered instantly as the slipper flew away.

Lu Yin had been watching Nutjob Lu very carefully, and he caught the barest glimpse of the scarlet eyes. As expected, Nutjob Lu was a Redback. "Senior Brother."

Mu Xie remained motionless. Nutjob Lu's previous attack had dealt severe damage to Mu Xie’s Progenitor's world, and his śarīra had been nearly destroyed.

Lu Yin looked over and saw Mu Xie's pale face.

Across from them, Nutjob Lu gasped for breath as his eyes returned to normal. A cruel grin appeared as he looked at Lu Yin. "Without Mu Xie, what else can you do?"

"There's still me." An overwhelming ripple of power tore through the entrance of the Celestial Treasury, shredding the vortex of the stellular tribulation. Arch-Elder Zen had successfully surpassed his tribulation, and he now unleashed the formidable power of a Progenitor.

Lu Yin had not been able to see how Arch-Elder Zen had defeated his tribulation, but the shocked expressions on the faces of Bai Wangyuan and the rest spoke volumes.magic

A Progenitor had been born right before their eyes, and he was clearly no ordinary Progenitor.

Nutjob Lu's face twisted. Success? How was that possible?

Lu Yin ecstatically exclaimed, "Senior!"

Arch-Elder Zen looked to be in an even worse state than Nutjob Lu, but his aura remained powerful. He used the Tri-Yang Ancestral Qi Technique again, and a stream of qi transformed into the Sixth Mainland's Progenitor Xue Wuqing. Snow fluttered down, carrying a deadly chill that tried to freeze Nutjob Lu.

Nutjob Lu's scalp started to tingle. Someone who cultivated the Tri-Yang Ancestral Qi Technique had just become a Progenitor. This was genuinely troublesome.

The Tri-Yang Ancestral Qi Technique was an invincible technique. Anyone who cultivated it was considered invincible because the summons that came from the Ancestral Qi would always possess the same cultivation level as the user.

During ZENITH, Shang Qing had used the Tri-Yang Ancestral Qi Technique to practically sweep through the competition. If not for Lu Yin’s God of Death Transformation, he would have never been able to match up to Shang Qing at that time.

Shang Qing's strength had even prompted the Progenitor of Combat to intervene in ZENITH, as the Progenitor had wanted to prevent the Fifth Mainland from giving birth to a new monster.

At this moment, Arch-Elder Zen had just successfully surpassed his tribulation and stepped into the Progenitor realm. For the first time, a Progenitor was using the Tri-Yang Ancestral Qi Technique.

The figure to appear was Xue Wuqing.

Xue Wuqing's original cultivation was no longer relevant. Since Arch-Elder Zen was a Progenitor, so was his summon. Heaven and earth both froze. This was dominance, ruthless and limitless.

The entire Celestial Treasury was transformed into a world of ice and snow. Heaven and earth were instantly transformed.

Every flake of snow that fell down carried a cold killing intent.

Outside the Celestial Treasury, Progenitor Long's expression grew solemn. "That’s Xue Wuqing! Watch out for his Thousand Calamities. That spiritual force technique will now have the strength of a Progenitor."

Progenitor Long was aware of Xue Wuqing's strength, as he had fought against the man during the war between the Sixth and Fifth Mainlands.

The greatest powerhouses in the Fifth Mainland during that war had been the masters of the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas. For the Sixth Mainland, Xue Wuqing had held a position equal to that of the masters of the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas.

Nutjob Lu continuously retreated, but since they were in an isolated space, there was nowhere for him to escape.

Lu Yin had not expected Progenitor Long to be so wary of Xue Wuqing. Lu Yin had thought that Xue Wuqing was merely someone on par with the Progenitor of Bloodlines or the Progenitor of Combat, at best. However, it seemed that none of Arch-Elder Zen's summons had been ordinary powerhouses. The countermeasures that Progenitor Tianyi had left behind to protect the Fifth Mainland were truly impressive.

"Let’s go!" Bai Wangyuan shouted, as he readied himself to rush into the Celestial Treasury and save Nutjob Lu.

Arch-Elder Zen turned around, and his second stream of Ancestral Qi appeared. It took on the form of none other than Lu Tianyi.

Bai Wangyuan and the others froze in shock. "Impossible!"

Nong Yi and Progenitor Smoke were similarly astonished.

The same was true of even Mu Xie and Nutjob Lu.

No one had expected to see Arch-Elder Zen summon Lu Tianyi. Lu Tianyi had long since been recognized as the strongest individual in the entire Fifth Mainland, second only to the legendary ancient Dao Monarch. Even during the era when all of the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas had possessed a master and Progenitor Chen had controlled two Mountains and one Sea, Lu Tianyi had still been irreplaceable. He had conferred the masters of the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas, standing firmly at the pinnacle of humanity.

Confronted with Lu Tianyi, Bai Wangyuan and the others involuntarily trembled.

Wang Fan attacked. "Do you really think that a summoned Lu Tianyi can possibly possess Lu Tianyi's true strength? Ridiculous!"

Arch-Elder Zen’s brow furrowed. With a wave of his hand, the third and final stream of Ancestral Qi transformed. Progenitor Hui suddenly appeared.

Once again, Bai Wangyuan and the others were shocked to their core.

If Lu Tianyi represented absolute power, then Progenitor Hui represented the pinnacle of intelligence.

The appearance of the two figures caused an unparalleled shock for those who saw them. It felt as though they were once again witnessing the moment when the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas had fought against Aeternus; Progenitor Hui displayed his commanding presence while Lu Tianyi radiated invincible might. At that time, Bai Wangyuan, Progenitor Long, and Wang Fan had all stood behind Lu Tianyi, but at this moment, they stood against him.
