Chapter 3254: Battle At The Immemorial Citadel

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

True God's expression grew increasingly grim. Lu Yin had already received the support of all of the creatures in the Origin Universe. Then, he had absorbed divine energy from the black Mother Tree, continually challenging his limits. At this moment, Lu Yin had gained additional support with a new breakthrough, and he now posed a greater threat than ever before. The child could not be allowed to live.

Even so, Lu Yin did not really matter. He could not break free from True Gods Dominion. Even if he was capable of reaching that level of strength, by the time he did, humanity would already be gone. What could Lu Yin do at that time?

In the Second Scourge, the Wordless Heavenly Book disappeared, and the golden light faded away. Everything returned to normal.

Lu Yin remained standing in place, looking slightly confused. He was certain that the Wordless Heavenly Book had broken through and become a Progenitors world, but it felt no different from before. Had anything at all changed? Was he simply unable to perceive the difference?

He looked up and saw that the shadow of the Origin Universe was beginning to fade. The tribulation was over, and yet it seemed as though Lu Yin had gained nothing. He had even made a grand vow to guide other humans towards goodness, but just the thought of doing so gave him a headache. How was he supposed to guide others? He was not exactly a good person himself!

As for breaking True Gods Dominion, that was even more questionable.

At this moment, Great Elder Shan Gu arrived in the Second Scourge.

The man had remained in the Mirari Realm after the battle there to recover from his injuries. Unfortunately, he had lost the ability to call upon the statues of his Heavenly King card. His strength had fallen drastically, and he had been continuously trying out new cards within the Lost Clans universe.

During the most recent battle, he had been tasked with protecting the survivors of the Lost Clan, which was why he had not gone to fight in the Second Scourge. It was unexpected for him to appear at this moment.

"Dao Monarch."

When Lu Yin saw Shan Gu, something suddenly occurred to him, and his eyes lit up. Senior, why are you here?

The man replied, I just happened to have some business with you, Dao Monarch, regarding Evernight.

Lu Yin stared intently at the Great Elder. I also happen to have something I need to discuss with you, Senior.

Me? Shan Gu looked puzzled.

Lu Yuan, Hongyan Mavis, and the others all approached him. Little Seven, did the Wordless Heavenly Book successfully become a Progenitors world?

Lu Yin nodded, but he also frowned. While I succeeded, I wasnt able to break True Gods barrier. However, I have another way.

He then looked at Shan Gu. If Im not mistaken, youre here because of that card, right?

The man replied, You are correct, Dao Monarch. Its about that card.

In that case, I want to summon that card here, Lu Yin stated. He was referring to what the Lost Clan publicly called a Primeval card. However, that card was not really a Primeval card. Primeval cards were equal to the Origin realm, which was Lu Yuans level. Both Evernight and Heavenly King had been enhanced to the Origin level, and adding another Primeval card would be meaningless.

The card actually possessed the power to protect the Lost Clan, and it had once allowed them to escape from some invincible being in their original megaverse, and it might have even posed a threat to that being.

That card was at least at the Dukkha Realm, which was the same level as the Origin Progenitor, True God, and the Great Sovereign. There was even a chance that the card was more powerful than those three.

Lu Yin had not considered using the card to break True Gods Dominion until he saw Great Elder Shan Gu. Of course, even if Lu Yin had thought of the possibility earlier, it would not have mattered, as he could not summon the card on his own.

Shan Gu grew confused. Here?

Will it be difficult to summon it here?

Of course! In order to summon that card, we need to wait for the Shangsan Festival. Only when the barrier opens is it possible to summon the card. We arent in the Lost Clans universe, which means that we cant open the barrier here, Shan Gu explained helplessly.

Lu Yins heart sank. Was it not possible to summon the card from the Scourge?

Isnt that the Lost Clans universe? Mu Shen looked up at a shadow in the sky.

Everyone else looked up to stare into the sky. They looked at where Lu Yins tribulation had appeared for his Wordless Heavenly Book. Since the tribulation had finished, the first thing that had disappeared was the images of the people, followed by the Fifth Mainland, and then the Origin Universe. Everything was disappearing in the reverse order that they had appeared in.

It was like a curtain was being drawn back.

So far, the curtain was only just closing on the Origin Universe, which was connected to the Lost Clans universe. Everyone in the Scourge had the strength to make out the Lost Clans universe within the vast image that had appeared.

Lu Yin looked at Great Elder Shan Gu.

The man was still staring at the image in the sky, puzzled by the sight of the Origin Universe in the sky of the Scourge. The Great Elder had not made his way to the Scourge because of Lu Yins breakthrough which had transformed the Wordless Heavenly Book into a Progenitors world. The old man had been intending to speak with Lu Yin, and his timing was nothing more than a coincidence. After hearing Lu Yins request and seeing the image of the Origin Universe in the sky, Shan Gus expression grew serious. Ill give it a try. Since we can see my peoples universe, it might be possible to open the barrier.

Senior, humanitys survival hangs by a thread. You must open the barrier! Hongyan Mavis reminded the old man. While she was not fully aware of the Lost Clans situation, she believed that a solution that Lu Yin had come up with at this point in time should have a good chance of succeeding.

Shan Gu felt even greater pressure after hearing Hongyan Maviss warning. While the old man did not fully understand the current situation, the serious expressions on Lu Yin and the others faces made it clear just how dire the situation was.

Heavenly King floated into the air. Shan Gu was no longer able to borrow power from any of the statues, but the card itself remained intact. This was just enough to allow the Great Elder to stand up to an Ortuser.

Shan Gu could not attack with Heavenly King, but he could still intimidate his opponents. However, this was insufficient for the Great Elder.

The reason why he had wanted to speak with Lu Yin was to ask for Evernight, as Lu Yin rarely used the Primeval card himself. If not, Shan Gu wanted to ask if Lu Yin could help improve another one of the Lost Clans cards to allow them to regain some measure of their lost strength.

Shan Go was not concerned about his own strength, but he was very concerned about the Lost Clans.

Tian Ci had slaughtered many of the Lost Clansmen. While Shan Gu had not participated in the battle against the Boundary Guardians, the burden of having failed to protect his people weighed heavily on him.

He was a powerhouse who had once fought in the ultimate battle of his native megaverse. He had seen an invincible being. There was no longer anything that could truly frighten Great Elder Shan Gu. What he lacked was strength.

I humbly request that the barrier be opened. Great Elder Shan Gu waved his hand, and Heavenly King seemed to pierce through the sky, vanishing from the universe.

Lu Yin and the others all watched.

Heavenly King did not pass beyond True Gods Dominion Technique. Still, just outside of the barrier, where the universe connected to the Lost Clans universe and the Origin Universe, there was a slight tremor. Right after that, an indescribable sensation overcame everyone. It was as though the air they were breathing had acquired a new flavor.

The people from the Origin Universe felt the sensation even more clearly.

It was as if the universe had just acquired something more.

The stronger the person, the more clearly they could feel this sensation.

Shan Gus face turned pale. Dao Monarch, with Heavenly King, the barrier can only be opened for enough time to burn one stick of incense.

Lu Yin stepped forward, his expression solemn. Thank you.

Everyone moved back as Lu Yin moved forward on his own. He slowly rose into the air, just like when he had triggered his breakthrough. No one could help him at this moment. He already stood at the pinnacle of the megaverse.

At the Immemorial Citadel, everyone heard Lu Yins voice, and that made True God even more afraid. The Aeternals assault on the Immemorial Citadel grew even more ferocious.

The Ossis Ark moved forward. It was going to crash into the Immemorial Citadel.

Yuan Qi was an ancient monster. He carried a bell on his back, and each time it tolled, the universe shook, and sequence particles were dispersed. Only the sound of Mister Mu's flute could resist the tolling of the bell.

From within the Immemorial Citadel, a super giant rose up. This was the source of the enormous arm that had appeared on several occasions. He was an ancestor of the super giants, and he had also captured the Ancient Lightning Locust. At this moment, he confronted the Ossis Ark itself directly, charging at the ship in a frenzy.

For Aeternus, Ancient God stepped forward. He released his gray, God-realm battle force. Stars disappeared as a palm strike shot out to meet the ancestor of the super giants.

The ancient giant simultaneously reached out to grab Ancient God.

The collision took place outside the city walls, and the impact suppressed the flames that surrounded the Immemorial Citadel. The force of the resulting shockwaves tore through the void, revealing the Hollow in all directions.

The ancient super giants hand cracked, and he quickly pulled it back. Who are you?

Ancient God raised a hand. "Purgatory Seal."

Unlike before, his Purgatory Seal had now taken on a dark-gray hue, and it gave off an ancient, primordial aura. The giant was astonished, as he was also an Ortuser. In the past, he had fought against Yuan Qi on multiple occasions while protecting the Immemorial Citadel. There were almost no beings within Aeternus who had the strength to face the giant directly, and yet a single palm strike from Ancient God had injured the giant. The demonstration power changed the giants expression.

Chu Yi appeared. "Musclehead, have you still not understood?"

Ancient God calmly looked at Chu Yi. "Understood what? Lets see how long your Immemorial Citadel can last for. No one is coming to help you. They cant break through True Gods Dominion. Humanity is already done for."

As he spoke, Ancient God disappeared. He reappeared in front of Chu Yi, already attacking.

Chu Yi sighed, "Even if the Immemorial Citadel falls, you Aeternals won't have an easy time of things. The people here do not fear death."

"Chu Yi, you can't stop me."

"Then I shall break through to the Origin realm. Master warned me to not do that unless absolutely necessary, but this is the right time." As Chu Yi finished speaking, Ce Wangtian, who had been standing beside the man, kicked at Ancient God. The Skygod raised an arm to block the attack, but he was still forced back.

The power of the kick startled Ancient God, and he looked at Ce Wangtian's slippers. Isnt that Lu Yin's weapon?

Ce Wangtian was from the Third Mainland, so Ancient God had seen him before. However, he had never paid attention to the mans slippers before, which was why he had not made the connection between Ce Wangtian and Lu Yins slipper.

"Senior Chu Yi, youve finally figured it out, so hurry up now. We cant hold out for much longer," Ce Wangtian shouted.

The Immemorial Citadel was being attacked by Aeternuss forces on all sides. One expert after another fell, and blood stained the citys walls as the flames incinerated the corpses.

The sudden appearance of Progenitor Xi, Arrow God, and the other experts from the Scourges was enough to overpower the Immemorial Citadel, and the humans were unable to mount a defense.

At this moment, the universe practically collapsed in one direction. The destruction suddenly transformed into a brilliant beam of light.

Chu Yi mourned the loss. Babal had just used his nine-star technique, Restart, which meant that the man was about to die.

Qing Hui, who had once fought with Lu Yin when he had posed as Ye Bo, had a Progenitors world known as Road's End: Andromeda, as well as sequence particles that granted him incredible defenses. Even Lu Yin had been wary of the man. At the moment, five of Arrow Gods arrows were lodged in Qing Huis body. The Arrows of Entropy transformed order into chaos. If not for Qing Huis sequence particles, he would have already died.

There were experts in the Immemorial Citadel who could endure Arrow God's attacks, but there were also experts with similar strength among the Aeternals.

Kong Tianzhao again sought out Progenitor Xi. This time, there was no big tree to save the swordsman. His choices were to either break through, or die.

The Immemorial Citadel was bathed in blood as the Aeternals nearly breached the city walls.

The Ossis Ark once again charged at the walls.

Deep underground, Tai Chu looked up, just as a pair of slitted crimson eyes appeared before him.

"That trick doesn't work on me," Tai Chu said, and the corpse king simply shattered. Tai Chu never even glanced at the corpse king, instead focusing on a particular corner. There, in a microscopic world that was invisible to human eyes, lay a threat. It was Whiteless God.

Suddenly, a flirtatious laugh rang out. "Origin Progenitor, we meet again! Miaomiao says hi."
