Chapter 3021: Terrifying Destructive Power

Lu Yin and the others had already anticipated the Aeternals making a move, and Lu Yin was prepared to summon all of his Progenitor-level champions just to ensure that at least one of them could survive after Aeternus joined the battle.

However, someone else reacted even faster.

A golden light filled the sky and covered the earth, illuminating the Scourge and blinding Lu Yin and the others.

He instinctively turned around, whereupon Lu Yin saw a colossal version of Sovereign Dou Sheng wielding his golden cudgel. The weapon dropped from the sky in an unstoppable manner, attacking Skydog, the Seven-Star Mantis, and the nine-headed bird, who were all at the entrance to the Scourge.

A surge of divine energy erupted in an attempt to block the cudgel, but it failed. The golden weapon slammed into the ground, shaking the entire First Scourge.

Sovereign Dou Sheng had been waiting for a long time to release this attack. He resented not having killed Skydog in the past. He had been waiting to unleash this attack for far too long.

Everyone stared at the entrance to the Scourge. Even divine energy was being forced back by this attack. Who could possible survive such a thing?

Lu Yin had no idea whether Skydog had died, but he was certain that the nine-headed bird was dead. There was no question that it had been killed by Sovereign Dou Sheng’s blow. Even at its peak, the nine-headed bird would have been instantly killed by such an attack, let alone after suffering serious wounds.

As for the summoned Seven-Star Mantis, it had not had a chance to survive either.

Far away, Sovereign Dou Sheng was gasping for breath. People looked over as the towering Progenitor’s world slowly faded away. The Sovereign had delivered his final strike with his full power. It had not only been aimed at the nine-headed bird and Skydog, but also at the Purple Emperor, who had been trying to escape to the Scourge underground. However, it was uncertain whether the Sovereign’s attack had landed on the Purple Emperor, given that he was able to fold time.

Debris shot away like shrapnel as divine energy raged, clashing with the golden light.

Some time later, the dust settled. What appeared before everyone’s eyes was the smashed corpse of the nine-headed bird, which had been completely crushed by the cudgel. Skydog was also there.

Woof!

Lu Yin’s heart dropped. It was no use attacking the mutt.

Far away, Sovereign Dou Sheng clenched his cudgel tightly, as he realized it was futile for him to attack the dog.

Sovereign Lotus was startled to see that not even Sovereign Dou Sheng’s full-powered blow, launched with every last ounce of his strength, had killed Skydog. What was the creature made of?

Arrow Sage and Food Sage exchanged glances, clearly able to see the shock in the other’s eyes.

Lu Yin focused his Heaven’s Sight onto Skydog. How could the dog have survived Sovereign Dou Sheng’s attack without using any sequence particles? The nine-headed bird had been a sequence powerhouse, and yet it had been killed instantly by the blow. Just what was the leader of the True God Guard Captains made of?

Lu Yin somewhat regretted the nine-headed bird’s death. If Lu Yin had been given a bit more time, he could have eliminated the feathered nuisance himself, potentially anointing another sequence powerhouse to his Champions’ Stage. However, even if he was capable of summoning the nine-headed bird, it would not provide much assistance to him.

The nine-headed bird’s most formidable factor was its ability to curse its opponents with invisible sequence particles. If Lu Yin anointed the bird as a champion, the summon would not have been able to use its sequence particles, rendering the skill useless. Aside from acting as a shield, such a champion would serve no purpose at all.

After considering this, Lu Yin stopped regretting his lost opportunity to anoint another champion.

Woof!

Skydog barked again, sounding like he was mocking everyone.

Figures started to appear behind him, their bodies roiling with divine energy. There was Zhong Pan, Marquis Wu, and Marquis Wang. Three more True God Guard Captains had joined Skydog, and they faced off against Lu Yin and the others.

The Aeternals were sharply focused on Sovereign Dou Sheng.

At the moment, the Sovereign was truly at his limits, and he gave everyone the impression that even a single touch would be fatal. Such a vulnerable state was very tempting for Aeternus.

Sovereign Lotus was sent flying by the force of the attack, and she nearly collapsed.

The being of pure energy took the opening, and it shot straight for the entrance to the Scourge.

The beam slowly faded away.

Shao Yin’s attack had injured Sovereign Lotus, which was something no one had expected.

Lu Yin had expected Shao Yin’s strength to have risen precipitously, as he had sensed a threat from the man. But even so, that beam had surpassed Lu Yin’s expectations. The beam was created from the merging of yin and yang, and it had both shattered a Ninth-Grade Lotus and wounded Sovereign Lotus.

Out of everyone on the battlefield, Sovereign Dou Sheng was the only person on the humans’ side who possessed the strength to face off against the power that Shao Yin had just revealed.

After instantly wounding Sovereign Lotus with his opening attack, Shao Yin grew smug, and he smirked at his opponents. “This is my true power. In the Sixverse Association, I was one of the Three Sovereigns. In Aeternus, I am one of the Seven Skygods! Starting today, I will destroy the entire Sixverse Association!

“Especially you, Lord Lu. I will ensure that each and every person from your Heavens Sect dies before you. Tell me, just who can stop me?”

The former Sovereign then pointed a finger at Lu Yin, openly changing his target.

The beam shot out again, and Lu Yin’s scalp went numb. Had he known that Shao Yin would obtain this much strength, he would have never let the man live. Lu Yin had been told to leave the man alive for the sake of the bigger picture, but while Lu Yin had no idea what sort of plan the Great Sovereign had in store for Shao Yin, or how that plot might harm True God, the most important thing at the moment was the danger that Shao Yin posed at the present moment.

Using Inverse Step, Lu Yin moved at the speed of time and fled.

The beam shot through the sky, its terrifying sequence particles instantly making it impossible for Lu Yin to move at the speed of time with Inverse Step. He did not manage to get very far before Shao Yin shifted his hand, and the beam swept across a large area as it chased after Lu Yin. It wasn’t just him—Arrow Sage and Food Sage were also targeted by the beam, and they frantically tried to escape its path of destruction.

Given their strength, if that beam so much as touched them, there was no doubt that they would die.

Arch-Elder Zen used his Tri-Yang Ancestral Qi to summon Lu Tianyi, and the summoned Progenitor attacked with his Law of Undoing, instantly breaking the beam.

The summoned Lu Tianyi had successfully disrupted Shao Yin’s beam, but doing so caused Arch-Elder Zen to spit out blood.

Shao Yin attacked yet again. The power formed from merging yin and yang was not complex, but it was terrifyingly destructive. It gave the impression of something complex returning to something simple.

Arch-Elder Zen had successfully blocked the beam once, but a second time was impossible.

When the beam reappeared, just as Lu Yin was about to dodge it, a golden cudgel slammed down from the sky. It sealed off the area to Lu Yin’s right, which was where the beam was approaching.

Shao Yin’s beam struck the cudgel and tried to destroy it.

Sovereign Dou Sheng dragged his horribly wounded body over, and he hefted his golden cudgel as he glared at Shao Yin. Sequence particles filled the Sovereign’s weapon, which made this confrontation a contest between Sovereign Dou Sheng and Shao Yin’s sequence particles.

When it came to mastery over the laws of the universe, Sovereign Dou Sheng was in no way inferior to Shao Yin, but the Sovereign was too severely wounded to even remain standing.

Golden blood still dripped from his numerous injuries, evaporating to power the man’s Triumphant Brawl as he stood and blocked Shao Yin’s attacks.

Lu Yin took out the slipper and slammed it into the beam, instantly breaking it.

Shao Yin sneered. “Let’s see how long you can endure for.”

Another attack instantly shot out, the beam aimed at both Lu Yin and Sovereign Dou Sheng.

“Move!” Sovereign Dou Sheng reached for Lu Yin, intending to push him away.ViiSiit for latest novels
