Chapter 1199: Star Devourer

Xiao Chi sucked in a cold breath. "There was more than one powerhouse in the God of Death’s generation?"

Xiao Shi grew serious. "Not just those two. There were many more, but I can’t figure out why they disappeared."

Lu Yin had no desire to continue the conversation. This was nothing more than a fable. The God of Death, Destiny, and all the rest sounded even more far-fetched than the Starsybil Sect’s divination powers in Lu Yin’s ears.

However, the name fatesand did have a strong sense of mystery to it.

At that moment, a dinging sound came from Lu Yin’s gadget. He looked down and saw that Seventh Bro’s profile page on the Lockbreakers Network had changed. Before, he had been a five star Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker, and now, he was a one star Boundless Advanced Lockbreaker. He had done it.

At this same time, messages poured in from all over. The same thing had happened when he had first become a five star Intermediate Lockbreaker. Actually, to some degree, this happened every time he improved, but he had never paid any attention to the messages.

However, there was one message that thrilled him, which was one informing him that he had been given a planet within the Lockbreaker World.

Anyone who became an Advanced Lockbreaker would receive a planet in the Lockbreaker World whenever they made it to the hidden world in the Neoverse. Saul was also eligible to receive such a planet, but since he had never traveled to the Neoverse, he had never received one.

Lu Yin had been given a planet in a good location, and it actually neighbored Gui Junheng’s planet, which meant that it was quite close to the Ancient Spirit Sea, which made it a great location.

Lu Yin led Xiao Shi and Xiao Chi over to see the planet.

"So it’s this planet," Xiao Chi said.

Xiao Shi wondered, "You know it?"

Xiao Chi nodded. "This planet used to belong to a high-level Advanced Lockbreaker. I met him a few times, but he’s almost always gone. Last time, he left when the Sixth Mainland invaded, and he never came back. Finally, the society put his name on the list of the deceased."

Lu Yin’s feelings grew complicated. Too many people had died when the Sixth Mainland had invaded. Lu Yin had not seen much of the invasion, but people from all over the Human Domain had perished during the invasions.

The Sixth Mainland owed too large of a blood debt to the Fifth Mainland.

It was possible that this was part of the reason why the Sixth Mainland wanted to settle in the Outerverse; less blood had been spilled between the Sixth Mainland and the Outerverse. Also, it was true that the Innerverse could not possibly accommodate everyone from the Sixth Mainland.

Everything that had belonged to the former owner had already been removed from the planet, and it was devoid of everything besides a few mechanical servants.

There are very few ordinary people within the Lockbreaker World, as everyone who entered the hidden dimension was a Lockbreaker. Thus, typically, the servants of powerful Lockbreakers were actually the expert’s students.

"Lu, Big Brother Lu, do you want to start gathering students?" Xiao Chi eagerly asked.

Xiao Shi\'s eyes lit up, and he also looked at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin laughed. "For what?"

"We’ll help you find some!" Xiao Chi was eager to take on such a task, as it sounded quite fun.

Lu Yin shook his head. "There’s no need. I’ll be heading back to the Outerverse soon, and I won’t be visiting here too often."

Xiao Chi was disappointed.

"You two just do whatever you want for a bit. I\'m going to head off and unlock the sourceboxes that I have from before," Lu Yin said.

Xiao Chi looked at Lu Yin. "What kind of sourceboxes? Do you have a humanoid one?"

Lu Yin shook his head, but then he became surprised as he realized what he had just heard. "There are humanoid sourceboxes?"

Xiao Chi and Xiao Shi looked at each other and then nodded in unison.

"I’ve never seen such a thing before. What kind of sourceboxes are humanoid? Could they be people?" Lu Yin was curious.

Xiao Chi\'s expression grew serious. "They are people, but maybe not good people."

Lu Yin did not understand.

Xiao Shi pulled Xiao Chi over and whispered in his ear. Xiao Chi nodded from time to time and then looked at Lu Yin. "Big Brother Lu, you’re now an Advanced Lockbreaker, but if someone asks you to unlock a sourcebox in the shape of a lifeform, it would be best to leave it alone."

"Something in the shape of a person or an animal?" Lu Yin asked.

Xiao Chi nodded.

"Tell me why," Lu Yin said.

Xiao Chi shook his head. "I know that you don’t believe me right now, but you have to be careful. I’ve warned many people about it, but no one ever listens to me. Also, no one has ever seen a humanoid sourcebox before."

Lu Yin\'s eyes flashed, and he pointed to Xiao Shi\'s book. "Is this connected to something in that book?"

Xiao Shi was shocked. "How did you know?"

Lu Yin stopped paying attention to the two mushroom heads. Instead, he found a place to be alone and left the two teens looking at each other.

"Do you think he believes us?"

"Probably not."

"No one believes us, not even the president."

"It\'s fine. That sort of thing shouldn\'t happen anyway, as it\'s very unlikely."

…

Lu Yin found a quiet place that was quite large and secluded himself. Many of the planets in the Lockbreaker World were draped with spiritual thread, which made the substance nearly worthless in this place.

Lu Yin did not actually have a sourcebox that he wanted to unlock. Rather, he wanted to roll his die and study the pages of True Insight that were in his possession. He had returned one of the pages to the Lockbreaker Society, which meant that he still had five pages of True Insight left.

Lu Yin did not know how many sourcebox arrays he could learn from these five pages of True Insight, but he was looking forward to it. Also, the journal that Gu Yue had been in possession of also seemed to have some sourcebox arrays, but those records were incomplete.

Lu Yin raised his hand and caused his die to appear. He did not bother removing his cosmic ring, as he had not rolled six pips in a very long time.

This thought was still in his mind as the die came to a stop, and Lu Yin was struck dumb. It really was six pips.

The scenery changed before his eyes, and he appeared in a strange place where he was surrounded by spheres of light. Lu Yin did not know or have any control over who he would Possess, but with 7.21 million star essence in his cosmic ring, he felt that he could end up very, very far away.

He looked around, found an exceptionally bright light, and immediately merged with it.

His vision changed once again, and Lu Yin blinked. He took a good look at what was in front of him and was dazed by what he saw. What was he looking at? What the hell was this?

He was in the middle of outer space, but there was dirt floating around him, and there were numerous planets off in the distance.

At this moment, Lu Yin was in the middle of outer space, and there was a bizarrely shaped creature eating a planet in front of him.

Lu Yin rubbed his eyes and looked again. His pupils shrank to pinpricks, as, yes, it really was a massive beast chomping away at a planet. A creature was eating an entire planet; just what the hell was going on?

Soon, memories poured in. Lu Yin closed his eyes for a while, and when they opened up once again, the shock that filled him was almost overwhelming.

The giant beast devouring the planet in front of him was known as a Star Devourer.

Lu Yin had not expected to return to the Astral Beast Domain once again, but he had Possessed a Star Devourer’s guardian this time. This guardian had a power level of over 300,000, which was part of what had made this individual so initially appealing to Lu Yin. Coincidentally, he had managed to see a Star Devourer in person as it was eating a planet.

At this time, another memory entered his mind, and it quickly swelled through his mind. Lu Yin understood.

The Sixth Mainland had invaded the Fifth Mainland, and they had invaded the Astral Beast Domain as well as the Human Domain. However, the Astral Beast Domain’s casualties had been heavy, and they had lost nearly half of everything.

It was only after news of ZENITH being released that new members had entered Skymender’s List.

This Star Devourer was one of those individuals. It was truly an amazing astral beast, and just like Tian Hou, it was a species that rarely was born. Their diet consisted of entire planets, and the more planets that they consumed, the stronger that they would become.

A Star Eater could digest a planet and convert its mass into power. If the Mavis family was the representative of the physical strength in the Human Domain, then Star Devourers were the Astral Beast Domain’s equivalent.

The Star Devourer was not the only new addition to Skymender’s List, as the Celestial Beast Empire’s Crown Prince Yao Xuan and a carrion bug named Bai Mai had also been placed on the list.

The Celestial Beast List was a record of the most powerful creatures in the Astral Beast Domain, and the top entry was the Celestial Demons. This race had also founded the Celestial Beast Empire.

The second entry was the carrion bug race. Rumors claimed that these creatures had been born from the corpses of powerful ancient creatures and that they were the ancestors of all insects. Although they were ranked second, they had not been seen in hundreds of thousands of years, and their various subspecies had all been hibernating this entire time.

This information had all come from the memories of Star Devourer’s guardian. If there were other young powerhouses that had been added on to Skymender’s List, then this particular expert did not know about them.

ZENITH was turning out to be something far more important than what Lu Yin had initially assumed. The Celestial Beast Empire’s crown prince, a member of the carrion bug race, and this Star Devourer had all woken up because of their intention to join ZENITH.

The Hall of Honor had agreed to hold ZENITH because of their absolute confidence in the Human Domain’s victory, but victory would not come easy.

The Astral Beast Domain was making all these preparations, and the Technocracy had to be doing the same. And the Sixth Mainland still hadn’t even been mentioned.

Lu Yin had actually been assuming that, after becoming a Hunter and awakening a second innate gift, he would be able to sweep through his peers. With the exception of a select few like Shang Qing, no one within the same generation could rival Lu Yin. However, he was learning that his confidence might have come too soon. His current strength was not enough to be fearless of a Mavis clan member’s strength or this Star Devourer’s power. What’s more, he was also discovering that there were other creatures even more terrifying than this Star Devourer. Lu Yin subconsciously braced himself.

He finally noticed that he had felt something strange when he had rubbed his eyes. When Lu Yin looked down, he saw that he was not in a familiar form, as he had Possessed an astral beast.

The creature that Lu Yin had Possessed looked rather strange, and Lu Yin had no idea what the beast was called. He stared off into the distance and watched as the Star Devourer consumed the planet bite by bite. Lu Yin was left speechless upon discovering that there were so many monsters among his peers.

Lu Yin was just about to leave after watching the Star Devourer eat for a bit when another memory that belonged to this body suddenly struck him.

When I met a strong human known as Lu Yin, I tried to take away the beast hidden on his arm. The beast is known as the Ghost Monkey, and I must take it back.

Lu Yin was startled, as this was a memory of a meeting with Skymender, the imperial tutor of the Celestial Beast Empire. This powerhouse had ordered the Star Devourer to take the Ghost Monkey back.

The Ghost Monkey’s existence had been exposed, though Skymender had likely known about the Ghost Monkey from the very beginning. He most likely just had not been able to do anything.

Wait a minute, the Ghost Monkey had only been exposed during Lu Yin’s fight within the Mountains and Seas Zone. Before that, he had always maintained tight control over the Ghost Monkey, and the Ghost Monkey had never been exposed. In other words, since the Astral Beast Domain was aware of the Ghost Monkey’s actions during that time, then they should also be aware that Lu Yin had been captured by Shaman God. If the Astral Beast Domain was aware that Lu Yin had been captured, then why did they still believe that Lu Yin would be participating in ZENITH?

Unless, the Astral Beast Domain had already received word that Lu Yin had returned.

How long had it been? Had the Astral Beast Domain already received word? That was too quick, and it was clear that someone within the Human Domain had leaked the news.

The Neohuman Alliance had Aeterna, which was a list of regular humans that served the Neohuman Alliance. The Astral Beast Domain must possess a similar list of traitors, though Lu Yin did not know the name of this list as the astral beast that he had Possessed was ignorant of such things.

This showed the value of information.
