Star Odyssey

Chapter 801: Blackless God And Mister Mu

Qiong Xi'er stared at Zhu San with a dumbfounded expression. “You actually dodged that?”

Zhu San cried out, “Xi’er, I came to save you!”

“Your Zhu family’s gotten something wrong.” Qiong Xi'er folded her hands together again, forming another strange shape that then shot towards Zhu San. Shockingly, the power of this strike was even higher than the first. “Let’s see how you dodge this.”

Zhu San sighed, and his eyes flickered as he observed Qiong Xi'er’s strike. He raised a hand, and his fingers impressively bent into the same shape that Qiong had just used before he tapped out as well.

Qiong Xi'er was astonished, and the collision between the two attacks forced Zhu San more than ten steps back. Although his finger was bent in a strange and clearly injured manner, he had still actually managed to block Qiong Xi'er’s attack.

“How do you know the Yinyang Trisage Technique?” Qiong Xi'er barked as she stared intently at Zhu San.

Zhu San hurriedly replied, "Xi'er, that monster’s coming back, so let’s leave this place first. I’ll explain everything to you later.”

Qiong Xi'er stared at Zhu San, but then her eyes flickered, and she ran off in another direction. “Follow me.”

Zhu San hurriedly chased after her.

The Specter Clan expert quickly plundered all of the star essence in the City Master’s estate, but when he returned to the underground room, he discovered that Qiong Xi'er had disappeared. He was about to chase after her, but he coincidentally glanced to the side and noticed the mark left behind by Qiong Xi’er’s battle technique. It surprised him, and he exclaimed, “This is-”

But before he could complete his thought, a rumbling sound came from even deeper underground. His expression changed. This isn’t good—those Enlighters are about to escape!

He had spent so much effort to force them all into the cannon barrel, but now, they had all escaped, and all his efforts had gone down the drain. He could not remain in this place any longer.

There was a thump as the stone wall in front of him suddenly split open. Blaze Engineer stepped out, carrying his screwdriver as he coincidentally moved in front of the Specter Clan expert’s path. The Specter Clan expert looked over with his white eyes and exchanged glances with an unprepared Blaze Engineer. The Enlighter from Aurora Enterprises felt his heart tremble as his eyes went slack. Death energy formed a sickle that quickly sliced out at the defenseless Blaze Engineer. Right before the sickle sliced into him, Lu Yin popped out and activated the Yu Secret Art, diverting the sickle and saving Blaze Engineer’s life.

The Specter Clan expert did not even consider fighting these people head on, so he quickly changed directions and tried to flee. However, he was blocked by Sall Phoenix, and the man’s black Undying Bird crowed as it flew over.

The death energy immediately whooshed forward and entangled the black Undying Bird, rendering Sall Phoenix’s attack completely useless.

The void trembled, and Yuehua Mavis suddenly appeared. “Moonkill.”

The Specter Clan expert’s expression changed. He might be able to disregard the others, but the only one he could not ignore was this woman from the Mavis family. As the Moonkill battle technique fell down upon him, he tried to block it with his death energy, but at the same time, a Lotus Strike entangled him from below.

With the crowd of Enlighters all attacking the man at the same time, not even a powerhouse from the Specter Clan was able to withstand the assault.

Cai Jianqiang, Saul, and Zhu Tiezhu also joined the efforts to suppress the Specter Clan expert.

His entire body transformed into death energy that then dissipated only to recondense in another area. But when he looked around him, he was already surrounded.

Blaze Engineer had woken up from his daze, and he gratefully thanked Lu Yin. “Thank you, young fellow.”

Lu Yin stared at the Specter Clan expert; if this person had been a grey eyed corpse king, this last round of attacks would have suppressed him. However, this Specter Clan expert had managed to somehow withstand everything. It was no wonder why he had sensed death energy, and Lu Yin wondered if his ability to suppress death energy would be effective against this person.

“Do you people really want to become enemies with my Neohuman Alliance?” a sinister voice called out as the Specter Clan expert intently stared at Yuehua Mavis.

Yuehua Mavis looked over at the man, and she actually purposefully exchanged glances with him. Her eyes flashed with a verdant green tone, and the white pupils stared at the green eyes as they each tried to take control of the other, but both were deadlocked in a stalemate. “The universal, ironclad laws state that all members of the Neohuman Alliance must be killed.”

The Specter Clan expert sniggered in a strange manner. “The Outerverse has been cut off from the Innerverse, so who can possibly help you? This is the final warning: let me go, or you will all die.”

“Where’s your confidence coming from?” Zhu Tiezhu growled out. “Where’s Qiong Xi'er? What have you done with her?”

The Specter Clan expert’s white eyes remained emotionless. “Since you want to die, then I’ll fulfill all of your wishes.”

The man then closed his eyes as all the death energy returned to his body. He then simply stood there silently, as if his entire body was nothing more than a corpse.

Everyone paused, not wanting to make any reckless moves as the reputation of the Three Dark Hands was too terrifying—the Neohuman Alliance was the greatest darkness that humanity had. Even with the numerous Enlighters present, not a single one of them dared to claim that they would absolutely win.

This person’s words made all of them tremble.

“Yuehua Mavis, what did he mean? What other methods does he have?” Sall Phoenix asked.

Yuehua Mavis’s expression turned solemn. “I don't know.”

The Mavis family boasted an incredibly long history, and they had been around almost as long as humanity itself. Their history even surpassed that of the Neohuman Alliance’s, but despite that, they still did not have a clear understanding of the Neohuman Alliance. The origin of this darkness, the methods that it possessed, and even its objectives were all unknown to Yuehua Mavis.

A clan elder might be aware of such details, but she definitely wasn’t.

Lu Yin’s eye twitched, as the Specter Clan expert’s rune lines had completely vanished in an instant. Were they truly gone with him becoming like a commoner, or was he instead preparing to escape? No, that was impossible. Lu Yin had always been observing this person, and there would definitely be rune lines if he was preparing to escape, unless he possessed a method to completely suppress his aura similar to Aegis’s assassins.

The crowd was confused, but nobody dared to approach the man. The Specter Clan expert’s eyes remained closed, and he seemed like a dead person without any spark of life. However, this strange state was exactly what scared the Enlighters the most.

“Stop messing with us.” Cai Jianqiang’s voice was low. As he spoke, he tapped out with a finger reinforced with nine lined battle force, and his attack shot towards the Specter Clan expert. This attack had enough power in it to instantly kill an ordinary Cruiser, as it was boosted with nine lined battle force.

However, the attack completely collapsed when it was less than a centimeter away from the Specter Clan expert.

Despite the collapse of Cai Jianqiang’s attack, nobody had sensed any aura fluctuations or seen any rune lines appear.

Lu Yin felt apprehensive, as this entire situation was weird.

Suddenly, the Specter Clan expert opened his eyes. However, his eyes were no longer the white eyes that they had seen before, but rather a pair of very normal looking eyes. They were bright and lively, though they were also deep and vast like the heavens, as their depths could not be seen.

Then, the eyes changed yet again. This time, three pitch-black and colorless lines superimposed upon each other to form a star-like diagram within his eyes, giving them a very crafty look.

Everyone warily watched the Specter Clan powerhouse.

“You can’t escape,” Zhu Tiezhu barked.

The Specter Clan expert released no aura whatsoever, and as far as everyone could tell, he seemed to be a dead person or perhaps a commoner. His eyes moved, and he looked over the crowd, his gaze slightly lingering on Yuehua Mavis. He then moved on and continued to scan through everyone one by one before his eyes finally settled on Zhu Tiezhu’s body, at which point he showed blatant amazement. “Someone from the Ce family! Interesting, do you guys also want this mobile fortress?”

Most of the others did not understand what he was talking about. Only Yuehua Mavis’s eyes shrank, and she turned to stare at Zhu Tiezhu. The Ce family? Is it that Ce family? Why would they be here?

Zhu Tiezhu frowned. “I don’t know what you are talking about.”

The Specter Clan expert gave a relaxed smile. “You dare play dumb in front of me? Well, since you are from the Ce family, you have to die as well.”

Suddenly, the diagram within his eyes started to spin. Then, seemingly without anything happening, Zhu Tiezhu was dead. He slowly crumpled to the floor, no longer showing any signs of life.

At this moment, everyone was horrified, and they started to back away as one. They stared at the Specter Clan powerhouse in disbelief. Had he really just killed an Enlighter? How had he done it? How had this person acted without making any moves?

Lu Yin was petrified, as he had not seen any rune lines appear. A chill ran down his spine.

The Specter Clan expert gave a slight smile and turned to look at Yuehua Mavis. “There are only a few members of the Mavis family left, and there are likely only one or two of you in the Outerverse. Since you’re one of them, I can vent a bit of anger by killing you, even if there’s not much meaning to doing so. Do you think that I should kill you?”

Yuehua Mavis asked in a low voice, “Who are you exactly?’

The Specter Clan expert suddenly stared straight at Lu Yin. “Black-less-Spirit.”

Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed, and his scalp went numb. The greatest disaster had just appeared.

Everyone else had no idea who he was, as even Villa Mistress Lian, Sall Phoenix, Saul, and Cai Jianqiang had no knowledge of Blackless God. The Seven Skygods’ existence was not known to most people, with the exception of a few old freaks. Typically, only those who were a part of the Three Dark Hands had heard of them. Yuehua Mavis was one of the Mavis family’s true members, so she also knew of this name.

“Why are you in the Outerverse?” Yuehua Mavis’s expression had completely changed. Even when she had been faced with death within the barrel of the energy cannon, she had not lost her composure. But at this moment, terror and even desperation were easily seen within her eyes.

Blackless God smiled, but he did not answer. Instead, he simply looked at Lu Yin. “This is our third time meeting, so please give me an answer.”

Yuehua Mavis looked at Lu Yin in utter confusion. Blackless God was a powerful character who stood at the true pinnacle of the entire universe, but he had seemingly met Lu Yin several times. What did Blackless God see in this youth?

The others did not utter any words, nor did they move, though that was because they were unable to. As soon as Blackless God had appeared, not to mention the Enlighters present, but even a powerhouse with Northgate Taisui’s strength would not be able to move. And this was all just from a strand of Blackless God’s spiritual force.

In Blackless God’s eyes, there was not much difference between someone with a power level of 200,000 and 10,000; they were all ants in his eyes. action

Lu Yin was growing anxious; where was Master? Why hadn’t he appeared yet? Lu Yin had crushed the jade talisman long ago. Was his master really so unreliable? The being before them was able to casually wipe out an Enlighter, and Lu Yin would feel no sense of safety even if he put his universal armor back on.

The diagram in Blackless God’s eyes consisting of the interposed lines started to spin. “Answer me.”

Lu Yin swallowed his saliva. “Let me ask you a question: do you know Mister Mu?”

Blackless God’s expression did not change in any way. “Are you trying to stall for time? Who are you waiting for? Do you truly believe that there is anybody who can save you? Tell me: who, exactly, can save you?”

“He’s waiting for me.” Four words suddenly rang out in the underground space, and they seemed to ring right next to everyone’s ears without any warning.

Blackless God’s expression changed drastically, and he suddenly looked up at the distorting void, from which Mister Mu slowly walked out.

The diagram of lines in Blackless God’s eyes suddenly began to spin much quicker. “It’s you? What are you-”

Mister Mu raised a hand and pressed down with a single palm that landed on top of Blackless God’s head. Millions City and the space around it all slightly trembled at the same moment, and the gathered people only saw a thread of black gas float out from the top of the head that then dissipated.

Everyone stared at this scene, flabbergasted and unsure of what was going on.

“It was residing within this person’s body through its spiritual force, and this trace of spiritual force has been erased by Master,” Mister Mu calmly explained.

Lu Yin was stumped, as his master had resolved things way too quickly.

Suddenly, Lu Yin shouted, “Master, be careful!”

That Specter Clan expert that Blackless God had possessed suddenly awakened, and he gathered death energy into his hand to slam it towards Mister Mu. The attack squarely hit Mister Mu, but Mister Mu showed no reaction. Instead, there was only the sound of a stifled groan, and when everyone looked, they saw that blood was spilling from the Specter Clan’s expert mouth while his face was contorted as though he was suffering from some indescribable pain. In addition, his white eyes were filled with an endless terror. Then, he fell to the floor, completely devoid of any vitality.
