Lu Yin looked over, his eyes glinting sharply. You didnt act earlier, but you want to now?This battle has already gone on long enough. The Consciousness Domain is on the verge of collapse. If you strike again, not only will this domain be destroyed, but so will I. I am asking you, Third Boss, to show some leniency, Wu Wei bluntly replied.
Lu Yin chuckled. I cant give you that.
At this moment, the Consciousness Domain held two things that greatly appealed to Lu Yin: the strange karma, and Wu Wei.
Lu Yin could devour Wu Weis consciousness. If he did so, then the only ones who might be able to surpass Lu Yin in terms of consciousness would be those legendary Cosmic-realm conscients. Lu Yin was on the verge of becoming invincible in the realm of consciousness.
It was unbelievably tempting.
Even if Wu Wei decided not to take any action, Lu Yin had already intended to find a way to force the conscients hand.
After all, the High Seraph was not able to intervene. The Spirit Nidus was Lu Yins playground, and how many of the Seven Seraphs would do anything at all?
At a time like this, Lu Yin needed to gain as much strength as possible.
Third Boss, are you truly unwilling to stop? Wu Weis voice dropped even lower.
Lu Yin nonchalantly replied, I heard that you were captured by Qi Zun. Not even he was even my match, so what gives you the confidence to threaten me?
Wu Wei sneered. Qi Zun? Him? Capture me? You underestimate the Thirteen Luminaries!
All across the Consciousness Domain, countless cultivators were startled. Had Wu Wei not been captured by Qi Zun?
Even the members of the Qi family were shocked. This news was as harsh a blow to them as Qi Zuns capture.
For years, the Qi familys greatest pride had been the fact that Qi Zun had captured Wu Wei. That was their familys crowning glory and the source of their faith. Had it been nothing but a lie?
Outside the Consciousness Domain, everyone watching was similarly taken aback. Had the story been false?
Old Tao and Palace Master Yao exchanged glances. This was beyond even their expectations. The entire Spirit Nidus believed that Wu Wei had been captured by Qi Zun. That belief was the foundation of Qi Zuns status as the greatest ever consciousness cultivator in the Spirit Nidus. What was Wu Wei implying?
Wu Weis voice echoed through the silence of the Consciousness Domain. According to the final outcome, thats not wrong. I was indeed brought to the Spirit Nidus by Qi Zun.
However, before he captured me, I was already gravely injured. More than half my consciousness had been depleted. It took me many years here in the Spirit Nidus to recover. How else do you think he could have captured me? Ridiculous!
Lu Yins eyes narrowed. Then where is your confidence coming from? Your Skyshearer Millstone?
Wu Wei replied, Third Boss, the Thirteen Luminaries are the rulers of the Consciousness Megaverse, with a status equal to the Spirit Niduss Seven Seraphs. Do you really believe us to be so simple?
Ive since recovered, and the Consciousness Domain has been reduced to its current state. The Qi family has been destroyed, meaning that you have achieved your goal. Please leave. If we fight again, neither of us can know how things will turn out.
Lu Yins eyes blazed with the desire to fight. Hearing you say that just makes me even more eager to test the power of one of the Thirteen Luminaries.
Third Boss, do you truly wish to fall here in the Consciousness Domain?
Because of you? You arent capable of that.
Within Lu Yins sight, Wu Weis consciousness violently erupted and surged towards him.
His star of consciousness rotated as he unleashed a counterattack.
The collision of two Universe-realm consciousnesses exploded within the Consciousness Domain once again.
The impact left the remaining cultivators still in the domain stunned.
Shi Lin shouted, Third Boss, please stop! The Qi family has been destroyed! Why drag down the entire Consciousness Domain?
Lu Yin completely ignored the man. Wu Weis consciousness was just as vast as Lu Yins. However, while it was vast and unfathomable, it was not as condensed and solid as Qi Zuns.
If the clash of consciousness between Lu Yin and Qi Zun was like a river crashing into a rock, then Lu Yins clash with Wu Wei was like a river against a river. Or perhaps, it might be more accurate to call it an ocean crashing into another ocean.
The effects of the collision were not limited to just the Consciousness Domain, as they spread past the domain, warping the space beyond. The impacted area kept growing and expanding wildly.
Again and again, everyone was forced to retreat.
Qi Zun had relied on the Everstone sequence technique to restrict their clash of consciousness from spreading beyond a specific range, but Lu Yin and Wu Wei had no such restraint. They freely unleashed their consciousness in a contest of pure quantity.
Around the Consciousness Domain, the consciousness had formed a maelstrom that swept across the entire domain.
Outsiders were no longer able to see what was happening inside the Consciousness Domain.
The Skyshearer Millstone reappeared, larger and more solid than before.
As one of the Thirteen Luminaries, how could Wu Weis technique have been broken by Lu Yins Setting Sun?
The conscients earlier actions had merely been because of a commitment, but his true task was to protect the Consciousness Domain, not the Qi family.
With the Qi family destroyed and Lu Yin still attacking, Wu Wei had no choice but to fight at full strength.
The Skyshearer Millstone pulled and ground away at Lu Yins consciousness.
Lu Yin released Verdant Eternity. No matter how much pressure he was forced to endure, there were no signs of his consciousness being depleted.
The Skyshearer Millstone was trapped within Verdant Eternity, and it was suddenly subjected to unimaginable pressure by Lu Yins consciousness. Suddenly, it shattered with a roar.
However, the shattered disk formed into vicious blades of consciousness that slashed out in all directions.
Lu Yin remained stable on the ground. He was now the eye of the storm of consciousness as he reached out.
The blades all shattered in unison, but they simply transformed back into raw consciousness that then reformed the Skyshearer Millstone, much to Lu Yins surprise. So thats how it is.
Wu Weis Skyshearer Millstone was not a particularly powerful technique, but it was similar to Verdant Eternity in that it could be reformed without limits.
Verdant Eternity ensured that Lu Yin did not consume any energy, while the Skyshearer Millstone allowed Wu Wei to constantly reform its consciousness. While the technique lacked Verdant Eternitys ability and the conscient still had to consume some consciousness, its resilience was still remarkable.
It would not be easy to defeat the Skyshearer Millstone with Verdant Eternity, and it would also be extremely time consuming.
Third Boss, theres no need for you to waste your time here in the Consciousness Domain, Wu Weis voice rang out once again. In Lu Yins eyes, Wu Wei looked like a dark cloud, similar to Xu Jins appearance.
Lu Yin looked up at the dark cloud. You can be considered a Dukkhan, right?
Wu Wei did not understand why Lu Yin had suddenly askedit this question. Correct. Thats why you should withdraw. A Dukkhan wont be defeated easily.
Lu Yin laughed, and this time, it was a genuine laugh of delight. Now this just became interesting!
As he spoke, he released a spiral of karma. It spread across the sky to form a circle: Wheel of Karma.
The Wheel of Karma had been useless against Qi Zun, as the old man had died a long time ago and been reduced to mere remnant consciousness. However, that was not true for Wu Wei.
Wu Wei was a conscient. As such, it also pursued Immortality. To reach Immortality, it was necessary to overcome Dukkha.
Overcoming Dukkha was the same for all creatures. As a conscient, Wu Wei possessed a vitality core, which was different from Qi Zuns remnant consciousness.
Humans faced Dukkha, as did astral beasts and even plants.
Conscients were no different, and they also had to overcome Dukkha.
All living beings in existence were bound by karma.
The Wheel of Karma moved closer to the Skyshearer Millstone. Then, the wheel passed through the disk and entered the dark cloud.
Abruptly, the Skyshearer Millstone froze in place.
Lu Yin stared at the dark cloud.
He did not know what sort of Dukkha a conscient might face, but karma was always the same.
Suddenly, the dark cloud shrank. The Skyshearer Millstone vanished, and the consciousness that had filled the Consciousness Domain abruptly disappeared.
Lu Yin looked up at the sky and saw a sword falling down from above. It was aimed straight at him.
Heaven's Blade! Wu Weis voice rang out.
Lu Yins pupils shrank sharply, and his scalp tingled so intensely that it felt as if his head was about to explode.
The moment that sword was aimed at him, all his hair stood up. He had only ever felt this sensation when facing certain death.
How was this possible? Was Wu Wei actually capable of making Lu Yin feel like he was facing certain death? Given his strength, only the High Seraph himself should have had the strength to threaten Lu Yin to this extent.
Heaven's Blade suddenly dropped, shooting straight for Lu Yin.
Lu Yin knew that it was impossible to dodge this attack. Tear through space? Reverse time? No, neither of those things would work. For some reason, he sensed that this sword could not be avoided. It was not aimed at him, but rather at a specific outcome.
He was destined to be struck by this sword.
Destined? Why should that be destined?
Lu Yin released Verdant Eternity and used the Dao of One Heavens, pointing a finger upwards.
His finger met the edge of the sword, and blood appeared. Lightstream flickered, reversing time by one second, and Lu Yin pulled his hand back as he retreated. If not for the second he had bought, he would have lost his hand entirely.
What is this sword? How could Wu Wei possess such remarkable swordsmanship?
This sword technique had been executed with consciousness. Lu Yin had never seen anything like it before, and it was terrifying beyond words.
This single sword attack disregarded all causes, as it was focused solely on the final outcome.
This was a sword that cut directly at the result.
Heaven's Blade pierced the earth as it relentlessly pursued Lu Yin. Verdant Eternity continued to surround him as he moved his consciousness, bombarding Heaven's Blade.
Heaven's Blade shrank bit by bit, but it still gave off a palpable sense of threat.
The relentless blade left Lu Yin feeling an even stronger chill.
Above the Consciousness Domain, Wu Weis consciousness had weakened. It had never intended to use this technique, but Lu Yins strange action had actually destabilized its Dukkha, forcing the conscients hand.
Heaven's Blade was a trump card, one that not even High Seraph was aware of.
After this battle, all who witnessed the sword would have to die.
Beneath the Consciousness Domain, the blade edged closer and closer.
Lu Yin was entirely focused on the blade. A sword aimed at the result Where there is an effect, there must be a cause.
A spiral of karma coiled around his fingertip as he pointed toward Heaven's Blade.
Karma met the blade, and at that instant, a roar ripped through the universe, and Lu Yins vision turned pure white.
When he opened his eyes again, Lu Yin saw a strange scene flash by.
He saw walls of karma and a land shrouded with karma.
He had no explanation for what he saw. Such a scene should not exist. Was it an illusion formed from karma? Or had the impact revealed the cause behind the sword?
No matter what, Lu Yin felt like he had just touched upon something monumental.
In front of him, Heaven's Blade trembled. It was less than half of its initial size, and it slowly stopped moving.
He pointed out with another finger, shooting another spiral of karma at the blade.
A roar echoed through the universe once again, and the same scene unfolded. This time, Lu Yin saw more clearly. Not only were the walls made of karma, and the land shrouded in karma, but he also saw a drop of liquid resting above the karmic land.
Instinctively, he reached out to grab it.
Heaven's Blade suddenly slashed sideways, cutting off Lu Yins vision. The edge of the blade shone brighter and sharper than before.
Lu Yin quickly dodged, and he flickered in and out of sight as he stepped onto the ground of the Consciousness Domain. Beneath him, Heaven's Blade ripped out of the ground, rising back up towards the dark cloud.
The Consciousness Domain was still breaking apart. A full third of it had already been completely destroyed. All the territory that had belonged to the Qi family was now gone.
The members of the family fell unconscious, their fate uncertain.
Lu Yin looked up at the dark cloud, his eyes focused and wary.
He had believed that his spiral of karma had overcome Heaven's Blade. He had not expected the sword to suddenly unleash a burst of power right at the end.
Wu Wei was far stronger than anything Qi Zun could contend with.
Had the High Seraph taken direct action to cripple the Consciousness Megaverse beforehand?
Above the Consciousness Domain, Wu Wei was also on edge. The conscient was completely baffled by what had just happened. It had no choice but to stop the attack and focus on Lu Yin.
Heaven's Blade could not be exposed, and yet it was impossible to kill this Third Boss.
If the man could not be killed, then there was no need to kill anyone else. No one else would even be able to understand Heaven's Blade.
The Third Boss was the only one.
The Consciousness Domain fell silent. One was in the sky, while the other stood on the ground, but the two continued to stare at each other.
