Star Odyssey

Chapter 1434: Free For All

Bai Shaohong stared at Lu Yin. "I told you to release you domain."

Long Tian also looked at Lu Yin. "Check it out."

Long Xi stepped in, "You want it, then check it yourself."

Bai Shaohong said, "Since you decided to come here, you don’t get to just stand to the side."

"Are you retarded? Check it out for yourself! You must think you’re important," Lu Yin rudely mocked. Since he already knew that he would eventually be exposed, there was no need for him to keep restraining himself.

Everyone stared at Lu Yin in shock. No one had expected him to chew out Bai Shaohong after opening his mouth. Bai Shaohong had certainly not expected it.

As they had been traveling, he had repeatedly tried to aggravate Long Qi, yet the youth had always remained silent. So why was he speaking up at this time?

Lu Yin rolled his eyes. Was he no longer able to endure? No, it was not that. He was actually trying to trigger an attack from Bai Shaohong.

Things were very strange in this chamber. Xia Shenfei, Wang Su, and Liu Tianmu were all present, and they represented three different teams, yet they were quietly sitting together at this moment. It should be impossible for a fight to not break out in this place, yet it was still peaceful. The only possible explanation was that something unexpected occurred as soon as any form of violence broke out.

Since that was the case, what was there to be afraid of? Lu Yin would just let Bai Shaohong make the first move.

Bai Shaohong was not stupid, and he quickly understood the situation, as did everyone else.

Yun Tingting stared at Bai Shaohong with great interest. Just what would the Junior Progenitor do after being insulted in such a manner? Would he attack? Did he dare?

Bai Shaohong's eyes flashed with a killing intent. "Watch what you say."

"Fuck off!" Lu Yin snapped back rudely. He intended to completely alleviate all of the stress and frustration that had accumulated while traveling.

Long Xi glanced over at Long Qi. She remembered how he had spoken to Yu Chen in front of the Hope Restaurant. He had expressed absolutely no manners at all, and had been very rude. However, it was still true that this sort of behavior was the most effective way to deal with someone who had always been pampered, like Bai Shaohong.

Bai Shaohong's expression grew dark, but he refrained from taking action as he was too worried about the repercussions.

Long Tian frowned as he looked at Lu Yin. "Even if you come from a branch family and want to be blunt, you still can’t be so crass. Once we return to Dragon Mountain, you will recite the clan rules. If you behave in such a disrespectful manner again in the future, you will be severely punished."

Lu Yin looked over at Long Tian and smiled. Then, suddenly, Lu Yin’s expression changed, and he shouted, "You can fuck off too! What a load of bullshit!"

"What did you say?" Long Tian was enraged. He had not expected Lu Yin to retort to even him.

Long Xi hurriedly pulled Lu Yin back. "Don't say another word."

Bai Shaohong's eyes grew cold. "Brother Long, have the White Dragon Clan’s rules been lost? If my Celestial Frost Sect had such a person enter the sect, they would absolutely be put through excruciating pain."

Long Xi snapped back, "Your Celestial Frost Sect does not have the qualifications to step into the affairs of my White Dragon Clan."

Long Tian had already lost his patience. "Little sister, enough is enough."

Long Xi fell silent.

Long Tian shot a cold glare at Lu Yin. "I thought you were a piece of jade that I would be able to sculpt, but I see now that someone from a branch family will never measure up and will always remain worthless."

He then turned to Bai Shaohong and continued in a more gentle tone, "Brother Bai, there’s no need to pay attention to such a person. We simply need to find out how to wake up Brother Xia and then we can find out what happened."

Bai Shaohong glanced at Lu Yin once more, but then ignored him. Instead, he turned to focus on Xia Shenfei and the others. He frowned.

Shang Qing looked at Lu Yin smiling, and then shook his head with the same smile on his face.

Lu Yin rolled his eyes; what was that supposed to mean?

Bai Shaohong and Long Tian studied the seated figures for a while, but no one dared to randomly attack. Finally, Bai Shaohong raised a hand and took out some sourceboxes from his cosmic ring. He then used them to set up a sourcebox array.

Lu Yin and Shang Qing glanced at each other. Neither of them had expected Bai Shaohong to be an Array Master.

Sourcebox arrays simulated the effects of a sourcebox’s danger zone, and setting one up would not affect the surroundings.

Lu Yin watched as Bai Shaohong arranged the sourcebox array, but even if Lu Yin had already comprehended several sourcebox arrays, it was still impossible for him to understand the purpose of Bai Shaohong's sourcebox array.

It did not take long for the array to be completed. Long Tian then attacked it and pushed the sourcebox array into the open chamber. Everyone grew wary, but no abnormalities could be detected. Then, the sourcebox array slowly fell to the ground and disappeared. The fluctuations from the sourcebox spread out to eventually envelope the entire chamber.

A beam of light shot out of the ground straight into the air. This was the start of the activation of this array. It was not overly powerful, but it had an impressive range.

Beams of light then began to shoot out with increasing frequency. One of the beams landed on Wang Su and pushed her from where she was seated. Her eyes snapped open, and she looked over at Bai Shaohong and others. She shouted, "Destroy the corpse! We’re in the Forgotten Ruins."

While Lu Yin and Shang Qing were unaware of what the Forgotten Ruins were, both Bai Shaohong and Long Tian went pale from fright when they heard Wang Su’s words. They both immediately attacked the dried up corpse that sat behind the crystal pillar.

The corpse was not durable, and since Bai Shaohong and Long Tian had joined forces, the mummy was instantly smashed to pieces. The moment that occurred, Xia Shenfei and the others all opened their eyes. Confusion flickered through their eyes, but they quickly recovered themselves and stood up.

Xia Shenfei instantly charged towards the pillar of tribulation crystals, clearly hoping to snatch the green leaf that sat atop of it. Wang Su was not slow to react, either, and the two youths raced for the pillar at the same time and clashed at the base of the pillar.

As soon as they saw the other two moving, Bai Shaohong and Long Tian charged forward as well.

"Attack! Get the Origin Matter!" someone shouted, and everyone else instantly started racing for the pillar.

In no time at all, a battle that could shake the entire Perennial World erupted within the chamber at the center of one of the Mother Tree’s branches. The people participating in this fight were the most outstanding members of their generation, and they each fought with a dogged determination within the chamber.

Long Xi shoved Lu Yin back and sternly ordered him, "Stay here! Where’s your ring?"

Lu Yin immediately took out the ring-shaped power vessel he had been given.

"Stay safe!" Long Xi ordered before racing away and making her way towards the pillar.

All four Junior Progenitors were fighting around the pillar of tribulation crystals, and each move that any of them made tore the void open, which forced everyone else to keep pulling back.

This was a battle between Junior Progenitors, and the outcome would not be easily decided.

Unseen Light’s domain covered the pillar, but it was instantly torn apart by Xia Shenfei's Divine Martial Armor. Xia Shenfei loudly ordered, "Take care of the trespassers! It’s all four of them."

Wu Taibai raised his hand and pointed straight at Dong Shan and Dong He. "Those are them! They’re the trespassers, to attack them!"

Bai Shaohong was instantly enraged at hearing this accusation. "Don't you try to slander me!"

He then pointed at Xia Shenfei. "You dare make such accusations against my people?"

Xia Shenfei was speechless. He waved a hand and scattered bits of his Divine Martial Armor while pointing at Liu Tianmu and the others. "I was talking about those four!"

Long Tian glanced over and saw that Xia Shenfei had also pointed out Liu Tianmu. Long Tian’s eyes flashed, but he ignored the matter and fought to get closer to the crystal pillar. He even entered the true universe with the Roving White Dragon to get closer, but Wang Su managed to use the Four Arts to accomplish the same thing, and she clashed with Long Tian in the true universe at the top of the crystal pillar.

A powerful shockwave blasted out, twisting the void as it passed until it finally tore space apart.

The spatial tear extended towards Lu Yin as he stared at it, and he quickly grabbed the ring-shaped power vessel and used it to protect himself.

Long Xi felt relieved when she saw this.

Liu Hao attacked Liu Tianmu with a sword. Dong Shan and Dong He fought against Unseen Light and Yao Xuan, respectively. Long Xi and Wu Taibai fought each other, while Yun Tingting turned into several different figures, and she tried to approach the pillar from every direction, only to be stopped by Wen Diyi.

For the moment, everyone was very busy, and none of them were concerned about Lu Yin and Shang Qing.

The four Junior Progenitors all mutually restrained each other, so Bai Shaohong shouted at Shang Qing, "Grab the Origin Matter!"

Shang Qing rushed forward. He no longer tried to keep anything hidden, and three streams of qi swirled around him, giving him an ethereal look that stunned many people.

Long Tian could not bear the situation any longer, and he looked back at Lu Yin. "Go grab it! If you get the Origin Matter, everything else will be forgotten, and I can even give you a position in the clan second only to me!"

Long Xi pushed back Wu Taibai's Divine Martial Armor and shouted over at Lu Yin, "Don't move! This has nothing to do with you!"

Long Tian grew furious. "Long Xi, don't try to hold us back! Long Qi, grab it! I promise you will no longer have to worry about anything for the rest of your life."

Long Xi gritted her teeth, but no longer tried to stop Lu Yin. She knew just how important Origin Matter was. If Long Tian could become a Progenitor with this Origin Matter, the White Dragon Clan would be able to shake free of the suppression they suffered from the Celestial Frost Sect. This was more important than anything else.

At this moment, everyone else was occupied with an opponent, so the only possibility for the White Dragon Clan to grab the Origin Matter was Long Qi, but that depended on whether or not he could defeat Shang Qing.

Bai Shaohong was fully confident in Shang Qing. "Shang Qing, as long as you grab the Origin Matter, I, Bai Shaohong, will make you an elder in my Celestial Frost Sect, and you will look down on the entire Perennial World."

Shang Qing looked inspired by this offer. "Rest assured, I’ll definitely get it."

Lu Yin stepped out of the protection of his ring. "I’ll get it!"

The two rushed towards the pillar at the same time.

Wang Su and Xia Shenfei both wanted to stop the two, but they were both held back by Bai Shaohong and Long Tian. Everyone else also had their own opponents, so everyone could only watch.

Suddenly, Dong He’s eyes flashed. He had been fighting against Yao Xuan, but his hand moved. “Yu Secret Art: Void Transfer”

The green leaf atop the pillar disappeared, only to appear in Dong He’s hand.

Bai Shaohong's mouth curled into a smile. He had succeeded! With Shang Qing’s help? No. Bai Shaohong had never placed any confidence in Shang Qing. Instead, he had believed in Dong He, and the Junior Progenitor had ensured that everyone was focused on Shang Qing and Long Qi in order to provide an opportunity for Dong He to take action with the Yu Secret Art. After all, it was the best secret technique when it came to stealing things.

No one had expected Dong He to have such an ability at his disposal. Long Tian was extremely frustrated. He had already known that Dong He had comprehended that secret technique, but had not realized that it could be used in such a way. The moment the Origin Matter entered Dong He’s cosmic ring, it would be difficult to seize the Origin Matter. Long Tian not only wanted Dong He’s ring, but also his blood.

Yao Xuan had been careless, and Dong He had snatched the leaf by using the Yu Secret Art right under Yao Xuan’s nose. He reflexively wanted to grab it, but he was already too late.

Dong He was feeling very proud of himself, and he was about to store the Origin Matter, but suddenly, the leaf was gone! Dong He blinked; where had the leaf gone?

A short distance away, the leaf appeared in Lu Yin's hands.

Everyone stared at him, stunned.

"The Yu Secret Art?" Dong He felt speechless.

Bai Shaohong's pupils shrank. What was this? The Yu Secret Art?

Long Tian, Long Xi, Wang Su, Xia Shenfei, and everyone else had not believed that anyone else would know that same secret technique, let alone Long Qi.

Lu Yin coughed. Everyone was staring at him, and it made him feel a bit guilty!

"Long Qi, put it away!" Long Tian was ecstatic, believing the leaf to already be his.

Bai Shaohong shouted angrily, "How dare you!!"

He immediately tried to attack Long Qi, but Long Tian stopped him.

Lu Yin wanted to quickly put away the leaf, but he did not notice that a black mist had appeared on the ground at some point in time. The moment when the leaf was about to be put away, the mist shot upwards and took the form of Crown Prince Gui Qian. His golden eyes locked onto Lu Yin, and bones emerged from his back and slapped the leaf away. It fluttered to the ground, and was then snatched away by the black mist.

Lu Yin had never considered that Crown Prince Gui Qian might have still been hidden, and he blamed the Perennial World for the fact that he could not see any runes. If runes existed in this universe, Lu Yin would have seen the prince.

Still, Lu Yin felt amazed at the prince’s abilities that he had managed to keep hidden.
