Chapter 3023: Powerful Weapon

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Also, this woman is incredibly powerful. Is she Whiteless God?

Lu Yin replied, Her name is Progenitor Xi. She isnt Whiteless God.

Lord Xus voice betrayed his wariness. The full depth of Aeternuss strength is indeed profound. Anyone they send out is a formidable opponent.

Lu Yin was equally wary. He did not know Progenitor Xis history or level of strength. While the First Scourge had been attacked multiple times in the past, Progenitor Xi had never really done much to defend the place. Even so, Lu Yin distinctly remembered how Astral Anura had formally greeted the woman, and how she had referred to the Great Sovereign as Tai Hong. It was clear that Progenitor Xi was no ordinary figure.

The fact that she was familiar with both Astral Anura and the Great Sovereign meant that the womans simple appearance belied more.

When the Purple Emperor saw Progenitor Xi appear at the entrance to the Scourge, he heaved a sigh of relief. This womans presence showed that Aeternus would not allow its allies to die.

Progenitor Xi walked towards Shao Yin. She slowly and deliberately took each step, as though unaware that she was on a battlefield.

Shao Yin was staring at the ground. He was drenched in his own sweat and breathing heavily.

How do you feel? Progenitor Xi asked, her voice soft and gentle.

Shao Yin clenched his fists and rose to his feet. He looked over at Lord Xu with a great deal of caution filling his eyes. I didnt expect Xu Jia to have such an ability.

Progenitor Xi glanced at the gathered humans. Never underestimate anyone. Anyone who is able to become the ruler of one of the Sixverse Associations member universes is not simple, and that even includes Dao Monarch Lu.

Shao Yin stared intently at Lord Xu for a moment before turning to Progenitor Xi and giving the woman a slight bow. Thank you, Progenitor Xi, for rescuing me.

While submerged beneath the lake of divine energy, Shao Yin had succeeded in merging Extreme Yin and Extreme Yang, and he had broken free from the lake with his own power. At that moment, he had shaken the entire Scourge, and he had also greatly resented Progenitor Xi for punishing him. His pride in his new strength had made him arrogant enough to look down on the woman.

Progenitor Xi had not taken that to heart. Aeternus needed powerful individuals who could support them, and she had tacitly approved of Shao Yins escape from the lake of divine energy. She had even implicitly accepted him as a new member of the Seven Skygods.

However, the most recent battle had just crushed Shao Yins arrogance, while also revealing some of Progenitor Xis power to him. Seeing it destroyed his confidence, as he did not believe that he could force back Lord Xu on his own.

With Whiteless God above and Progenitor Xi in front, as well as Shao Yin and the True God Guard Captains, it looked like it would not be possible for Lu Yin and the others to eliminate the Purple Emperor and the being of pure energy.

Seeing Shao Yins respectful attitude towards her, Progenitor Xi ignored the man, and her gaze drifted to Aeternuss opponents. Xu Jia, have you recovered?

Thanks to being left alone and given a period of peace. You know me? Progenitor Xi had never left the Scourge, so not even Lord Xu knew who the woman was. Despite that, she recognized the Voidlord.

Progenitor Xis expression remained calm. Of course I know the ruler of the Voidforce Universe.

And yet I dont know you, Lord Xu retorted.

Lu Yins interest was piqued. He only knew of the woman as Progenitor Xi and knew absolutely nothing about her past or her abilities.

Progenitor Xi did not continue the conversation and instead looked over at Sovereign Dou Sheng. This battle has taken quite a toll on you.

Sovereign Dou Sheng was still breathing heavily. Three losers thought that they could ambush me. If you hadnt intervened, I would have left them without so much as an intact corpse.

The Purple Emperors eyebrows rose. If you hadnt received reinforcements, you wouldve died.

Progenitor Xi drily commented, Hes right. If we had not come to rescue you, you would have all died and your corpses destroyed.

The Purple Emperor felt puzzled, as he could not understand Progenitor Xis comment.

Lu Yin and the other humans were similarly confused, including even Lord Xu.

Sovereign Dou Sheng appeared to be on the verge of death, so how could he possess the strength to kill both the Purple Emperor and the being of pure energy?

Of the Cyclic Universes Three Sovereigns, Dou Sheng was unquestionably acknowledged as the most powerful of all, and he was seen as second only to the Great Sovereign herself. Still, even his impressive level of strength had limits, and the Purple Emperor had cooperated with two other outsider powerhouses to ambush the Sovereign. Such an attack should have been enough to kill the man. Was it really possible that he had kept some of his strength hidden?

Sovereign Dou Sheng stared at Progenitor Xi for a long moment. This woman was not simple.

Finally, Progenitor Xis gaze fell to Lu Yin. Her eyes filled with both admiration and a bit of surprise. Dao Monarch Lu, its been a while.

Lu Yin faced the woman directly. Just who are you?

Progenitor Xi replied, The steward of the Scourge.

You claim to be a steward, and yet you are able to change the outcome of this battle.

The fact that I am able to oversee the Scourge for True God and have the power to alter the outcome of this battle is nothing too impressive. On the other hand, Dao Monarch Lu, you are not even a Progenitor, let alone a Sequence Progenitor, and yet you also possess the strength to alter the outcome of such a battle. I have to admire that.

Everyone turned to look at Lu Yin, as Progenitor Xis words resonated with all of them.

The recent battle was no place for ordinary peak powerhouses, and even people like Arrow Sage and Food Sage had felt nervous participating. Despite that, a mere Semi-Progenitor like Lu Yin had threatened Aeternuss sequence powerhouses and made it difficult for the Purple Emperor to escape. Lu Yins presence had forced Aeternus to step out and save their allies, which amazed everyone.

The Purple Emperor and the creature of pure energy were staring at Lu Yin. This human was intimidating. For him to be so powerful as a Semi-Progenitor, just what sort of power would he possess when he became a Progenitor, let alone a Sequence Progenitor? They refused to even consider such a thing.

Both Jing Zhe and the Seven-Star Mantis had been killed by Lu Yin, and he had also directly contributed to the nine-headed birds death. Lu Yin posed a very significant threat to them.

Zhong Pan stared intently at Lu Yin. If not for that turtle from Whitecloud City, Zhong Pan would have successfully killed Lu Yin years ago.

Marquis Wu and Marquis Wang were also staring at Lu Yin. The shock that the young man had given all of Aeternus was immense.

Woof!

Skydog was staring at Lu Yin while sniffing curiously. He suddenly cocked his head to the side, giving Lu Yin an odd look.

Lu Yin smirked. Since you admire me, do you plan on eliminating me to remove a hidden danger for Aeternus?

Progenitor Xi met Lu Yins eyes. Of course.

Her answer instantly charged the atmosphere once again as tensions spiked.

As soon as Lord Xu had stepped back and Progenitor Xi had started casualy speaking, it had become clear to all that the battle was over and that no one would be able to do anything to their enemies for the time being. However, there were hidden blades in both Lu Yin and Progenitor Xis voices, and everyone readied themselves to attack at the slightest hint of provocation from their enemies.

Why not go ahead and try it? Maybe youll succeed, Lu Yin challenged with a hint of a smile.

Progenitor Xi just shrugged. We wont succeed now, but that day isnt far off. Im curious, now that youve seen the true strength of my Aeternus, what do you think?

Lu Yin clasped his hands behind his back as he replied, Kill all of you.

Progenitor Xi was momentarily startled, but then she laughed.

Shao Yins eyes grew cold. Arrogant.

Lu Yin glared at the man. That includes you.

Enraged, Shao Yin would have attacked, if not for his worries that Lu Yins side held the upper hand due to their greater numbers.

Woof! Skydog barked.

Lu Yin looked at the dog and frowned. Whats with that look? He couldnt have recognized me, right? Wait Lu Yin suddenly remembered that the dog had once pissed on his leg. Could Skydog have picked up that scent?

This thought caused Lu Yins heart to drop.

Skydog looked at Lu Yin in an increasingly odd manner, his nose twitching as though the dog was trying to figure something out.

Lu Yins eyes narrowed, as he realized just how much of a problem this was. He could not be recognized as Ye Bo. That alias was too important to lose. His eyes flickered, and then he suddenly pulled something from his cosmic ring. Shao Yin, in our eyes, youre just as disgusting as this.

As Lu Yin spoke, both Lord Xu and Sovereign Dou Sheng instantly moved away from him. Shock and disbelief filled their eyes as they stared at Lu Yins hand. What was that stench?

Everyone nearby looked over, stupefied by the foul stench that had suddenly appeared.

In front of them, Progenitor Xi frowned when the horrid scent reached her. It was unbearable even for her. She immediately waved a hand to disperse the smell, only to find that it was impossible to get rid of. What was that thing?

The smell reached Shao Yin as well, and he stared at the item in Lu Yins hand. It was so disgusting.

Woof! Skydogs reaction was the most intense, and he instantly vomited.

From his cosmic ring, Lu Yin had taken out the strange fruit that he had obtained from lockbreaking. The thing gave off the worst stench imaginable.

When the Sixth Mainland had invaded the Fifth Mainland, Lu Yin had used this fruit to disgust many people, and at this moment, he had taken it out again, hoping to confound Skydogs sense of smell. If the dog wanted to smell something, then Lu Yin would give him something special.

An intense, foul stench spread across the Scourge.

No matter if they were allies or enemies, everyone pulled away from Lu Yin as they stared at him in shock. Where had such a foul smell come from?

The stench of the fruit was something that Lu Yin knew not even Envoys could shield themselves from, but it was nothing more than a nuisance. Lu Yin had used the fruit to chase away anyone at the Enlighter realm and below, including even Zhi Yi and Bu Kong. Not even their secret techniques had been able to protect them from the smell of the fruit. However, Lu Yin had been against such weak opponents at that time that there had been no reason to expect the foul fruit to also be effective against even peak powerhouses.

It was only at this moment that Lu Yin understood how wrong he had been. Everyone around him was a peak powerhouse or a sequence powerhouse, but none of them could shield themselves from the smell of the fruit. How was that possible?

Even Lu Yin was taken aback. Could even Progenitors not block the smell?

Cough, cough!

Sovereign Dou Sheng coughed violently.

Lu Yin blinked.

Lord Xu could not help but speak up, Hurry up and put that thing away! If youre not careful, we wont be killed by our enemies, but rather die of disgust instead.

Lu Yin asked in shock, You cant block it?

Obviously not.

With your sequence particles?

They cant stop it.

Lu Yins expression changed. It was clear that something was wrong. How could sequence particles not block the smell of the fruit? That should not be possible.

It was also clearly not only the Voidlord who was unable to block the smell of the fruit, as it was obvious that the same was true of the more distant Sovereign Lotus, and even Progenitor Xi. The smell affected Shao Yin, the Purple Emperor, and everyone else present as it spread across the battlefield. No one could stop the smell.

Everyone stared at the nasty fruit as they wondered what it was. Even sequence particles could not block its smell!

Lu Yin was also suffering. Truthfully, it was a struggle for him to endure. He could understand why this fruit had driven Bu Kong, Zhi Yi, and others crazy when he had used it in the past. However, he had no choice but to endure for the moment. The fruit was the only thing that could confuse Skydogs sense of smell. It was clear that the dogs nose was extremely sensitive.

Woof! Skydog tucked his tail between his legs and fled back into the Scourge, vomiting as he ran.

Progenitor Xis expression grew solemn. No matter who Aeternus faced, no one could kill Skydog. The dog had never fled from a battlefield with his tail between his legs.

Sovereign Dou Shengs eyes went wide in surprise. The unkillable mutt had actually run away. When the Sovereign had pushed his way into the Scourge, he had been unable to kill the dog no matter what he did. It was clear that Skydog had unexpectedly met his nemesis, which was an unexpected benefit. Suddenly, Dou Sheng felt a sense of fondness for the foul stench.

Put it away now! Lord Xu urged.

Since Skydog had run away, Lu Yin quickly stored the fruit back in his cosmic ring. He was also unable to endure the smell any longer.

As the smell dissipated, everyone eventually recovered.

Lord Xu was amazed. Kid, just what is that thing? Even sequence particles cant block its stench. That defies the laws of the universe.

Lu Yin pursed his lips. I got it from lockbreaking.

Lord Xu nodded. I see. Anything that is sealed in a sourcebox is not simple. Unfortunately, most sourceboxes are empty when opened and are therefore usually more useful in sourcebox arrays. When you have a chance, let me borrow that thing.

Lu Yin readily agreed, as he was also quite curious about the fruit. If not even sequence particles could stop the fruits smell, what would happen if it was Enhanced with his die? It could become a very powerful weapon.
