Chapter 3072: People Of The Immemorial Citadel

Fei suddenly felt something strange. It was as though the setting sun had enveloped her. Was she feeling its warmth? No. She was feeling something indescribable. All she knew at the moment was that something had been separated from her. She looked at Ye Bo. He appeared to be so very close, yet infinitely distant. It felt as though she could never reach him.

Fei wanted to take a step forward, but her body could not move. Her battle techniques, her power, and absolutely everything she could normally do seemed to be locked down.

Lu Yin stared at Fei. "Setting Sun incinerates your martial spirit. With one move of the Setting Sun, twilight shrouds the horizon."

As he finished speaking, he waved a hand. In his eyes, as well as that of Di Qiong and countless other beings across the Third Scourge, the setting sun in the horizon seemed to be pushed by a great wind, and it slowly dissipated.

As this happened, Fei's expression changed drastically. An unprecedented feeling settled onto her. She felt like a puppet. Her mind was completely blank, and she was unable to do anything to resist.

Puff!

She spat out a mouthful of blood. Her grip on her sword weakened, and it fell to the ground with a clang. Fei’s Pupilless Transformation reverted, and her eyes lost all focus as she slowly crumpled to the ground.

The setting sun was beautiful, yet deadly.

Fei had lost.

Lu Yin stared at the fallen Fei. He had not expected his new technique to so powerful. Fei was a sequence powerhouse, and yet his Setting Sun had utterly overwhelmed her.

A short distance away, Di Qiong was amazed. This was the power of a comprehension technique. This was a power that could rival the laws of the universe, but in sways, was even more difficult to master. There was no method to train in comprehension techniques or develop the necessary insights. Without his comprehension technique, Ye Bo’s strength was fairly ordinary, and he was only able to barely survive attacks from sequence powerhouses. However, when he used his comprehension technique, his opponents would struggle to defend themselves.

This one technique provided an opportunity to change the course of a battle.

"Ye Bo."

Lu Yin turned to face Di Qiong. "Yes?"

"The Divine Selection is about to start. Unless absolutely necessary, do not use Setting Sun. It is your best chance of obtaining victory, so if others are prepared for it, it will lose a great deal of effectiveness," Di Qiong warned.

Lu Yin quickly agreed.

Di Qiong soon left, showing absolutely no concern for Fei at all.

Lu Yin glanced over at Fei. The woman’s sword technique was the sas what Wu Tian had shown Lu Yin in the Martial Heaven when the Divine Eagle had dived at the fish. What did this mean? Why did Fei know that technique?

"You’re not dead, right?" Lu Yin asked.

Fei's fingers twitched. She took a moment and then pushed herself up off the ground. She rose and looked at Lu Yin, shock evident in her eyes. "Is that... a comprehension technique?"

Lu Yin looked at Fei. "Where did you learn your sword skills? That technique is quite unique."

Fei did not answer. She stared at Lu Yin for a long moment and then walked away.

Once no one was around, Lu Yin let out a breath. He really wanted to go see Wu Tian, but this was not the right timing. There was no doubt that Di Qiong was watching Ye Bo, and if he revealed any flaws meeting with Wu Tian, it would be disastrous.

Lu Yin wanted to leave the Third Scourge, but that was not possible. All he could do for the tbeing was wait. The Divine Selection? Each Scourge would send their strongest powerhouses to represent them. These were Aeternus’s greatest experts beneath the level of the Three Pillars and Six Skies. Lu Yin wanted to see what such people were capable of. One day, he would have to face all of them.

...

In one part of the Third Scourge, divine energy formed what appeared to be a fog. Two cosmic doors suddenly crashed down from the sky, landing in the center of the Third Scourge.

"Di Xia, Ye Bo, each of you are to choose a cosmic door to enter. On the other side, you will face an opponent. Kill them to officially enter the Divine Selection. Otherwise, you will lose your qualifications." Di Qiong's voice echoed throughout the Third Scourge.

Countless corpse kings in the Third Scourge were facing the cosmic doors, as well as many human cultivators.

Xin Wu was among those staring at the cosmic doors. He longed to participate in the Divine Selection, but Ye Bo had taken that opportunity away. Despite Xin Wu’s unwillingness, there was nothing that he could do about it. Ye Bo had supposedly already defeated Fei, which made him the second strongest in the Third Scourge. He was only weaker than Di Xia.

The two cosmic doors were surrounded by a desolate area. Lu Yin instantly arrived, and he stared at the cosmic door in front of him. This was the beginning of the Divine Selection. Not every representative of each Scourge could actually enter the true assessment. Only those who managed to pass this initial test would have a chance to survive the following tests. The Divine Selection itself was an incredibly cruel assessment.

Lu Yin had learned this much from Di Qiong.

From Wei Shu, Lu Yin was aware that the true Divine Selection would be held at the Immemorial Citadel.

If it was held at the real Immemorial Citadel, then the difficulty of the assessment could not even be imagined.

Di Xia also appeared, but he entered a cosmic door without any hesitation.

Lu Yin stopped stalling. He stepped forward and passed through the cosmic door.

He was in the middle of outer space. Lu Yin used Heaven's Sight to look around, and his eyes instantly tensed. What was this?

"Another one? Aeternus still won't give up. They keep trying to get through my territory. Get lost!" A loud shout rang out from afar, though Lu Yin could not see the speaker. He quickly dodged, because Heaven's Sight revealed that the area he had been standing in had suddenly been filled with sequence particles. Sequence particles filled the entire region of outer space. In terms of sheer quantity, there were as many sequence particles here as what the Seven Skygods had. This person was a pinnacle expert. This was someone at least comparable to Senior Brother Mu Ke.

Space shattered where Lu Yin had just stood, and he heard the sound of scraping metal. He could see sequence particles forming chains that shot towards him from every direction. They not only appeared from where he had been standing, but everywhere else as well.

Lu Yin quickly released his divine energy, which surged up in a dark red haze that erupted from his body.

"What a disgusting power," a man said as he appeared in the distance. He was a burly and muscular man, and he was holding a large saber that he pointed at Lu Yin. "Aeternus scum, state your name. I don't kill nameless people."

Lu Yin felt nervous. He was surrounded by countless chains of sequence particles that were moving wildly. They could not break through his divine energy, but they kept him imprisoned within a confined space.

This could not be allowed to continue. Lu Yin had no idea what other tricks this man might have, but Lu Yin had already been trapped in place by the chains of sequence particles.

Thinking quickly, Lu Yin raised a hand and wrapped it in divine energy before lashing out. The attack shattered the chains in front of him.

"Decent strength. You’ve beca corpse king, a lifeless creature, so just die." The burly man raised his saber and slashed down at Lu Yin from above.

As the saber fell, Lu Yin heard a sharp and mournful sound. The ethereal noise caused Lu Yin's ears to throb in pain. The blade flickered with a cold glint as it dropped, and Lu Yin was forced to quickly dodge aside. The saber sliced by his side, shearing through the stars. Lu Yin lunged to grab the hilt of the saber just before the burly man’s attack finished. The man appeared to be surprised by Lu Yin’s reaction. "You have a bit of skill, but no luck."

As the man spoke, a new blade burst out from the hilt, and it abruptly spun around with a hiss. A gash opened up on Lu Yin's arm as a similar injury appeared on his opponent.

However, the burly man did not care at all, and he laughed raucously as he attacked again.

Lu Yin frowned. What was going on? This man fought so recklessly; did he not fear death? If Lu Yin were facing a corpse king, this would not be surprising, but this man was clearly human.

Unable to understand the man's tactics, Lu Yin pulled back.

"Hahaha, so you're not a corpse king! You're actually afraid of dying. Kid, the more you're afraid of dying, the easier it is for you to die against me. Watch my saber." The burly man's saber was not a normal weapon; the blade could attack from every angle, cutting both the man’s opponent along with himself.

The man was much like his saber, impossible to approach.

As the two exchanged attacks, the chains of sequence particles continued to entangle Lu Yin from all directions.

His divine energy surged wildly, and Lu Yin tried to push it outwards in an attempt to completely isolate the burly man. The man just sneered. He had already faced divine energy countless times before, and he understood it quite well. "How long can your divine energy last?"

Lu Yin's divine energy could last a very long time, but it was impossible for him to defeat this man with nothing but divine energy.

"Who are you?" Lu Yin asked.

The man laughed. "You chere to make trouble forand yet you don't know who I am?"

Lu Yin said nothing. To enter the Divine Selection, he needed to kill this man, but this man was an enemy of Aeternus, as well as an incredibly powerful expert. How could Lu Yin kill such a person?

"I am Qiu of the Immemorial Citadel! Remember that! I don’t want you dying without knowing who killed you!" the burly man shouted before suddenly throwing his massive saber. It shot forward like a dart, only to then circle back. It went around the chains of sequence particles three times before suddenly stabbing at Lu Yin in a vicious attack.

This was not ssaber technique. The man had completely abandoned using combat techniques. At this moment, he was essentially playing with his saber.

Lu Yin was shocked by the man's declaration. The Immemorial Citadel? Is this man a powerhouse from the Immemorial Citadel? Is this the Immemorial Citadel? Impossible.

There was no tfor Lu Yin to think any further. The saber thrust into the divine energy, and Qiu grabbed the hilt once more, only to throw it out again. Each the threw the saber, the power of the attacks rose, and the saber would tear through more of Lu Yin’s divine energy.

He gritted his teeth. No matter who this man might be, the Aeternals were undoubtedly watching this battle. If Ye Bo did not attack, it would be too suspicious.

Lu Yin thought of this as he watched the saber stab at him again. This time, the blade was less than a meter away.

The entire area was filled with chains of sequence particles.

Lu Yin turned to face Qiu as he raised a hand. He was going to use Setting Sun.

An exquisitely beautiful sunset appeared in the dark emptiness of outer space. It looked like a painting.

At this moment, Qiu felt the ssensation as Fei. It was as though he was being enveloped by something, and he felt a strange warmth.

The saber shot over from the distance, but it could not destroy the breathtaking scene of the setting sun. As Lu Yin waved the sunset away with a hand, the saber fell. At that moment, Qiu's expression changed dramatically, and his mind went blank. He felt as though he had just lost something very important, and he could not stop himself from spitting out blood. "A comprehension... technique."

Lu Yin took advantage of the opening created by Qiu's injury and quickly attacked. It looked like he was trying to kill Qiu. The truth was that Lu Yin had not used the full power of Setting Sun, just like how he had not used its full power against Fei.

Lu Yin threw a palm strike at Qiu, and the man did not try to dodge or evade in any way.

Lu Yin's eyes flickered. Why did the man not dodge? Given his strength as a sequence powerhouse, he should have been able to avoid the attack. Setting Sun was not powerful enough to incapacitate such an expert.

Even so, Qiu just stood there. He acted as though he had been severely injured and was unable to move.

Lu Yin was reluctant, but he had no choice but to finish his attack. He had already done his best and could not afford to be seen holding back. He needed to lose this battle. It was fine to be kicked out of the Divine Selection, and Lu Yin could even accept not going to the Immemorial Citadel, but he was not yet ready to abandon the identity of Ye Bo.

It might still prove extremely useful.

Besides, Lu Yin’s palm strike would not kill Qiu.

Bang!

The attack landed, but the strength of the attack was quite limited. This was not because Lu Yin had deliberately held back, but rather because the chains of sequence particles were still pulling at him, which made it difficult to release a full-powered palm strike.

Qiu finally looked up. "A comprehension technique. I have to kill you.

"Heaven’s Net."

The surrounding universe changed dramatically. Countless chains appeared, and they formed a nebula that spread out into the distance. These chains were not formed from sequence particles, but were rather a Progenitor’s world.

Qiu had released a Progenitor’s world.

As the Progenitor’s world appeared, Lu Yin felt a familiar energy: stellular energy.

Qiu was from the Origin Universe.
