Chapter 2905: We Meet Again

Lu Yin sneered back. "I want to see why a fish like you swam into my hands."

As he spoke, his Lightstream shot out, and Lu Yin swung his slipper.

Yu Huo\'s eyes flared. "First stage, change."

As soon as Yu Huo spoke, his appearance changed, and he grew larger and larger. He transformed from a fish into a massive python, and his tail lashed out at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin responded with a slap of the slipper. It did not matter if his opponent was a fish or a python; it would still be slapped to death by the slipper all the same.

There was a snap, and the python\'s tail tore open as the beast let out a howl. As this happened, Shao Chen grew pale while spitting out blood.

Lu Yin was startled by the unexpected development. "Headmaster?"

No one had expected Shao Chen to be suddenly injured.

The python roared, and a deep voice ordered, "Let\'s go!"

Just as Lu Yin was about to attack again, he remembered something, and he looked at Shao Chen with Heaven’s Sight.

There was a fish scale stuck to Shao Chen’s body. Without looking carefully, it would have been impossible to even notice, but the scale seemed to have come from the fish. There were no sequence particles around, so could it be an innate gift?

Lu Yin suddenly remembered that the True God Guard Captains all seemed to have unique innate gifts.

"Headmaster, get rid of that scale!" Lu Yin shouted.

Shao Chen quickly shook the scale off, but Greenridge and Yu Huo were already escaping.

Lu Yin pursued, and the slipper rose up and slammed down, but Greenridge moved to block the attack. At that moment, Lu Yin witnessed something odd; a circle and a straight line blocked his path of attack towards Greenridge, and Lu Yin himself moved along the circle, completely missing Greenridge.

With this opening, Yu Huo and Greenridge fled from the battlefield. Lu Yin wanted to give chase, but the Progenitor-level corpse kings were still wreaking havoc.

The True God Guard Captains had been accompanied by no less than fifteen Progenitor-level corpse kings, which had all run into the Transcendent Universe.

Lu Yin easily smashed the corpse kings into pieces.

At the same time, the Aeternals receded from the border warfront like a tide.

Chen Le breathed a sigh of relief. They were finally out of danger.

However, Zuo Lao and Cong Si had both died, and Lu Yin had not been able to eliminate all of the Progenitor-level corpse kings on his own. His arrival had not done much more than reverse the flow of the battle.

The Aeternals had invaded the Transcendent Universe, and humanity had lost two black energy converter users: Cong Si and Zuo Lao.

Their black energy converters were still present, but all of the energy within them had been consumed.

The Transcendent Universe could create more black energy converters, but they lacked the ability to recharge them. If not for that limitation, they would not have just ten black energy converters, but rather a hundred. With such an armory, the Transcendent Universe would have been able to deal with the True God Guard Captains without any help.

Furthermore, these were merely the casualties at the border warfront. As a whole, the Transcendent Universe’s losses were much steeper.

The Progenitor-level corpse kings had rampaged across the entire universe. One result was that the Ziyou Realm had been destroyed. You Fang was dead, but what worried Lu Yin the most was that Bai Qian had gone missing.

Without a body, it was impossible to know if she had been killed or captured by a Progenitor-level corpse king.

It was much more likely that she had been killed. With Lord Wei dead, the Aeternals should not care about Bai Qian.

Lu Yin\'s expression turned ugly. He had had no choice in the matter. He had known that the Aeternals might attack the Transcendent Universe, and he had even anticipated such an attack. However, it was not possible to cancel the crusade just because the Transcendent Universe risked suffering an attack.

With Lord Wei gone, the Transcendent Universe had lost the necessary strength to remain a member of the Sixverse Association. The universe’s greatest value at the moment was their technology and research skills.

Lu Yin already had plans to make the Transcendent Universe into Backyard’s research base.

Backyard was the Heavens Sect’s research and development department. They developed and improved microarray technology, medicines, and materials research. As for the Energy Research Group, their research had already been incorporated into Backyard. It was certainly feasible to transfer the rest of the Transcendent Universe’s research and development teams to Backyard.

No one could even object, as Lu Yin was currently the guardian of the universe.

Lu Yin’s status in the Sixverse Association meant that no one could order him about unless the Great Sovereign herself emerged from seclusion.

The invasion had completely awakened the Transcendent Universe, and people finally understood that, without Lord Wei, their universe was completely unable to measure up to the other parallel universes in the Sixverse Association. Without the Heavens Sect, the Transcendent Universe would have been destroyed this day.

However, Lu Yin was more concerned about Shao Chen’s injury.

Shao Chen had not been injured since his breakthrough, nor had he been injured during his breakthrough, all due to his unique form of cultivation. He was strong enough to fight against the True God Guard Captains with his mortal world, which made him far, far superior to a peak powerhouse like Chen Le. Lu Yin would rather lose ten Chen Les than a single Shao Chen.

"I just got smacked around a bit. I’ll be fine," Shao Chen protested weakly.

Lu Yin frowned. Yu Huo’s innate gift had clearly replicated the same injuries that he had suffered onto Shao Chen, spreading his suffering. When Yu Huo had been injured by Lu Yin’s attack, so too had Shao Chen due to the fish scale. If Lu Yin had used just a bit more power in his attack, he might have accidentally killed Shao Chen in a single blow.

However, that was not guaranteed. It was also possible that Shao Chen was capable of enduring greater injuries than Yu Huo and that he would have survived with the fish dying.

"I don\'t know how the Aeternals found their True God Guard Captains, but each of them looks like a freak, and their innate gifts are even more bizarre," Shao Chen said with a sigh.

Chen Le was scared. "Monarch Luo once said that, between the members of the Sixverse Association and the Endless Frontier, there are about seventy known parallel universes. In addition, there are others that are controlled by various universes, which puts that total to about a hundred. However, Aeternus controls far, far more parallel universes than the entire Sixverse Association.”

Lu Yin looked over at Chen Le. "Luo Shan said that?"

Chen Le nodded.

"What else did he say?" Lu Yin had come to discover that Luo Shan knew a great number of things. He had taken over the Three Monarchs Universe, become its ruler, and even enjoyed the respect of the Great Sovereign. Despite all of that, Luo Shan had still been willing to hide his true strength for years, and he had even cooperated with Shao Yin. What on earth was the man thinking? What were his goals?

Luo Shan\'s personality had driven him to attack the Origin Universe when the Heavens Sect had been attacked by Aeternus. The man had reopened the spatial passage connecting the Origin Universe and the Three Monarchs Universe, which made it clear that the Monarch was not someone who focused on the bigger picture. Rather, he instead pursued his own goals and revenge. Normally, this kind of person would easily betray humanity and join Aeternus, much like Old Mo, and yet Luo Shan had not done that. Even after all that had happened, Luo Shan continued to have hope that he could regain his position as a ruler of one of the Sixverse Association’s member universe. When Luo Shan had escaped from Shaman God, he had mentioned that he hoped that Lu Yin would not betray humanity. What did the man hope for that held him back from betraying humanity?

Chen Le thought for a while. "Monarch Luo told me about many things. I wonder, what specifically would you like to know, Dao Monarch?"

"You should all stay here in the Transcendent Universe to prevent the Aeternals from attacking this place again. I\'m going to go join back up with the second battalion." Lu Yin had no time to waste chatting with Chen Le. The crusade was not some joke. While humanity might appear to have gained the upper hand for the moment, the crusade had not fulfilled its true purpose yet.

The true goal of the crusade was not merely to conquer the Endless Frontier, boost humanity’s morale, and improve their position in the war. More importantly, they needed to find the hidden Seven Skygods and eliminate them.

Each Skygod was truly a difficult opponent.

The third battalion merged with the first battalion, which meant they were now an army led by nine Progenitor-level powerhouses. Naturally, Lu Yin would not join the first battalion, instead joining the second battalion. With the addition of Lu Yin, the second battalion would have six Progenitor-level combatants.

Two days later, Lu Yin successfully regrouped with the second battalion. The commander of the second battalion was Mu Ke, but the man was rather taciturn. Upon Lu Yin’s arrival, Mu Ke naturally ceded command of the second battalion.

Four battalions had been reduced to just two, but while there were fewer armies, they were both much more powerful than the original ones.

Several more months passed as the two battalions fought their way across the Endless Frontier. They successfully purged five more parallel universes. This speed was unprecedented, but it was because of the number of peak powerhouses participating in the crusade.

Still, their true purpose was to find the hiding Skygods.

It was possible that a Skygod might be hiding in every single parallel universe that the battalions had passed through, and most of their time was spent checking for hidden threats.

One day, the second battalion finally arrived at the Three Monarchs Universe.

The parallel universes of the Endless Frontier were all interconnected, but those connections had nothing to do with distance. After all, there was no distance between parallel universes.

The Three Monarchs Universe had been annexed to the Endless Frontier, and it had been arranged in the middle of the battlefield. It was connected to the Starlight Universe.

When the second battalion arrived in the Three Monarchs Universe, Lu Yin immediately ordered the sequence particle sensors to be released. He was not only searching for the Seven Skygods, but also people like Old Mo and Luo Shan.

Luo Shan’s hiding place was most likely in the Three Monarchs Universe. It was the place that he was the most familiar with, and with the fighting dying down across the entire Endless Frontier, there was a high chance that Luo Shan had returned to the Three Monarchs Universe.

The Aeternals had destroyed the Mo Courtyard long ago, and many corpse kings had settled down there.

Old Greenpeel and Suo Xian both arrived outside the Mo Courtyard, and they immediately started attacking the corpse kings inside.

When the people of the Three Monarchs Universe had moved to the Origin Universe, Old Greenpeel and the other Semi-Monarchs from the Mo Courtyard had all joined the Heavens Sect. Old Greenpeel and Suo Xian were part of the second battalion, and upon arriving in the Three Monarchs Universe, conflict welled up within them.

The two men eliminated many corpse kings, and they were quickly surrounded by Semi-Progenitor-level corpse kings. Old Greenpeel sighed. "I never thought that the Mo Courtyard would end up like this. I wonder what Monarch Luo felt like when he saw this place."

Suo Xian looked quite relaxed. Being surrounded by three corpse kings at their cultivation level on the Endless Frontier was a rather desperate situation. Even though Suo Xian was not a Realmbreaker, that did not matter. They were part of the second battalion, and reinforcements would arrive at any moment. "Don\'t worry about such things. The Mo Courtyard is already history. All of us are now part of the Heavens Sect."

The fighting restarted, and before long, Wang Jian arrived and attacked, instantly eliminating the three Semi-Progenitor-level corpse kings.

Suo Xian threw down a sensor and activated it. As he did, his expression changed. "There’s a reaction."

Wang Jian’s eyebrows rose, and he immediately contacted Lu Yin.

Lu Yin looked over at the Mo Courtyard. Who had they found?

The Three Monarchs Universe’s imperial treasury had been housed in the Mo Courtyard, and aside from the three Monarchs themselves and the members of the Mo Courtyard, only a few people had known about that fact.

At this moment, inside the imperial treasury, Luo Shan’s eyes opened. What was going on? He was starting to feel a bit anxious, as though someone was staring at him.

Suddenly, his expression changed, and the imperial treasury was torn in two right above his head. Wang Jian had attacked.

As the treasury shattered, tri-colored monarch essence surged out and slammed into Wang Jian.

The Progenitor’s expression changed drastically as the tri-colored monarch essence was difficult to resist. This person was a true expert, and Wang Jian quickly pulled back.

There was a hiss as a blade swept out, and it sliced through the monarch essence as well as severed stars. Wang Jian was knocked back, nearly injured by the saber.

Mu Ke held a saber in his hand as he faced the ruins of the imperial treasury. The black cloth was still concealing his eyes. "Luo Shan."

The Monarch emerged from the imperial treasury and looked around at the second battalion in surprise. He saw both Mu Ke and Lu Yin. "Why are you here?"

Luo Shan had fled the Transcendent Universe before Lu Tianyi had started fighting against Shaman God, and to recover from his injuries, he had hidden himself in the Three Monarchs Universe’s imperial treasury. He had no knowledge of the recent developments, so when he saw the number of cultivators and peak powerhouses who were a part of the second battalion, he was rather confused.

Lu Yin was standing atop the jiao, and he stared at Luo Shan from the distance. "We meet again, Luo Shan."

Mu Xie, Wang Jian, and Xia Qin all gathered around the imperial treasury.

Beneath them, Old Greenpeel and Suo Xian were staring on in a daze. Why was Monarch Luo here?
