Chapter 4487: Dawn Breaking

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

The horizon lit up, illuminating countless faces.

From the moment that this war had started, this was the first time that sunlight had shone upon everyone.

Master Qing Cao also felt the light, and the warmth swiftly dispelled the chill of the Godplume Spear.

Before him, the Godplume Spear hung silent, unable to advance another inch. One hand was holding the spear while another released a punch to the east.

This punch crossed the cosmos, passing over the Aevum Inch to descend upon the Tianyuan, where it shattered the Divine King’s meteor shower.

In the Tianyuan, countless people waited for the falling light points to end their lives, but what arrived was a gust of wind. When they reopened their eyes, the motes of light were gone.

Everyone was stunned. What had just happened?

"Senior, if you die like this, this junior will be quite troubled. There are many things still unresolved." A calm voice reached Master Qing Cao’s ears.

He gaped at the person right before him, holding the Godplume Spear. "Lu Yin?"

It was indeed Lu Yin who had appeared. While his clothes were still stained with blood, his bearing was even more imposing. There was no longer despair in his eyes, but instead a deep coldness. His gaze was as unfathomable as the Aevum Inch itself.

Lu Yin looked over at Nan Ling and met the bird’s gaze. He saw the disbelief in its eyes. His hand tightened, and with a bang, the Godplume Spear shattered.

He then turned to Master Qing Cao and smiled slightly. "How should I address you, Senior? Master Qing Cao? Or Greater Sancte Mi Jin?"

Master Qing Cao sized Lu Yin up and then looked at the shattered fragments of the Godplume Spear. He let out a long breath and then smiled. "Qing Cao will do."

Lu Yin nodded, "Senior, rest for now. Leave the rest to me."

Master Qing Cao did not object. He saw the Lu Yin that he had long known, the one who had been confident that he had everything under control, the Lord Lu who had once been invincible in the Tianyuan.

While Lu Yin had been immature at that time and had only been invincible within his own limited understanding, that state had represented his perception at the time, while his current confidence represented his current understanding.

But why can his aura not be sensed? Master Qing Cao could not understand Lu Yin, so he chose to not dwell on it.

Countless people saw that Lu Yin had arrived, and they felt both joyful and sorrowful. Just recently, he had been beaten badly, and the blood of those wounds still stained his clothes. It had not been long at all, and it was not at all easy to recover from wounds inflicted by Immortals.

They would have preferred it if Lu Yin had fled.

Though, why did they feel such an inexplicable surge of confidence when they looked at him at this moment?

Death's Dominion and Ni Bieluo both stared at Lu Yin. This human had changed. He had broken into the Immortal realm.

Green Lotus finally let out a breath. Has he finally broken through? Before he resonated with a cosmic law, he was already able to contend with two-law Immortals. What is he capable of now? Time will tell.

Just the fact that he had just caught a Godplume Spear with one hand was already astonishing. The Godplume Spear was the Plume Immortals’ ultimate technique. It was unstoppable and capable of piercing through anything. Although that description was somewhat exaggerated, it amply showed just how formidable the technique was.

All along, those at the same level of cultivation as a Plume Immortal would either dodge or take a Godplume Spear head-on. No one had ever caught one before.

However, Lu Yin had simply grabbed Nan Ling’s Godplume Spear. That was why everyone had fallen silent and why Nan Ling was staring in disbelief.

"You actually dare to return?" Nan Ling shrieked, its eyes growing vicious again. "Good! All of you will die together! Human civilization should be completely eradicated!"

Lu Yin lifted his head to look at Nan Ling. "Mongrel bird, I will destroy your Plume Immortals."

Nan Ling mockingly replied, "Even at death’s door, you still boast. Not even the Nine Ramparts were capable of that. Are you going to accomplish that all on your own?"

Lu Yin smirked. "Yes, just me."

"You are seeking death!" Nan Ling screamed as countless Godplume Spears shot at Lu Yin. At the same time, the void warped as the Plume Immortal released its unseen world.

It was not that Nan Ling was ignoring Lu Yin’s breakthrough. On the contrary, the bird was deeply concerned. In fact, it was terrified by the fact that Lu Yin had caught a Godplume Spear with one hand.

This battle had just become far more difficult, but even if victory proved impossible, Nan Ling could always just teleport away. What could this human do about that?

Lu Yin’s gaze flickered as he opened Heaven’s Sight, unleashing Pressure Over All Living Beings.

The cosmos suddenly seemed to sink as purple sight power appeared, catching Nan Ling off guard. The sight power had grown so powerful that it felt as though the cosmos itself was pressing down on it.

The pressure caused everyone’s hearts to drop, as they felt like the cosmos was collapsing.

This was more than a hundred times stronger than when Lu Yin had previously unleashed Pressure Over All Living Beings. Not even Nan Ling could immediately break free, though the bird was only frozen for a mere instant. As it was about to teleport away, Lu Yin appeared beneath it and seized a talon in that fleeting moment.

A chill spread through Nan Ling’s entire body, and it instantly used Thousand Feathers, Thousand Changes.

Lu Yin looked up. He directed his strength through his arm and hand and then swung his arm. Nan Ling’s talon instantly shattered. It screamed and unleashed Thousand Feathers, Thousand Changes again.

1,000 Nan Lings filled the area in every direction. Lu Yin’s arm slammed down, and an overwhelming force shattered space, revealing a bizarre spectacle to everyone.

Using sheer physical strength, he dragged the cosmos itself down, affecting the entire range encompassed by Nan Ling’s Thousand Feathers, Thousand Changes. Like a droplet of water, that entire region was pulled down by Lu Yin.

Within that area, his power surged, extending from his arm as it swung. Power rippled upward, instantly shattering 999 of the 1,000 Nan Lings. The solitary one that remained was whipped about by the force. Its body spun around, its feathers were ripped out, and its flesh was torn open. The Plume Immortal’s head, body, wings, talons—everything was shredded to bits. Ultimately, it was reduced to a bloody pulp of flesh and feathers that was scattered across the cosmos.

Drops of blood fell onto Lu Yin, looking like mottled plum blossoms.

A beautiful yet gory rain of blood softly fell upon the Trio. Countless people stared blankly, unable to believe it.

They had just watched Lu Yin instantly tear Nan Ling apart. How was that even possible?

Death's Dominion, Ni Bieluo, and even Old Man Hehe were all staring at Lu Yin in disbelief. What kind of power was this?

Nan Ling had not been weak. It had been a two-law Immortal and very close to the peak of that realm. Even if it had not been a match for them, it had not been far behind. Not to mention, with its ability to teleport and its Thousand Feathers, Thousand Changes, escaping should have been easy. And yet, it had been instantly torn to pieces!

Impossible. Could someone who had only just broken into the Immortal realm really be this powerful?

Near the Tianyuan, the Divine King was also staring in a daze. It instantly felt a deep fear for Lu Yin. Either this human would die today, or he could never be made an enemy.

The human civilization erupted with cheers. Countless people in the Nine Odysseys Megaverse cheered.

Green Lotus laughed loudly.

Laying in Qing Yun’s arms, Awe Gate looked at the sky and smiled as well.

Master Qing Cao closed his eyes. Only at this moment was he finally able to completely relax. "Heh, truly terrifying."

Standing in outer space, Lu Yin lowered his arm. In his hand, he held Nan Ling’s shattered talon, still covered with blood.

While the way in which he had instantly shattered Nan Ling appeared simple, the truth was that Lu Yin had mentally simulated the battle countless times.

Nan Ling had already been heavily injured, which had given Lu Yin a thorough grasp of the bird’s physical defenses. After breaking into the Immortal realm, he had first used his sight power to suppress and ambush the Plume Immortal, thus gaining a brief chance to grab it. The moment he touched it, he had unleashed his full power; Thousand Feathers, Thousand Changes had been used too late.

However, this was not something that outsiders could have seen.

Breaking into the Immortal realm had increased Lu Yin’s physical strength by more than a hundredfold. His strength had already surpassed most two-law Immortals’, and at the moment, he was confident that no creature at that level could surpass him in terms of physical strength. If there were any, they had to be creatures that focused solely on cultivating their physical strength.

Beings like Nan Ling, Ni Bieluo, and Death's Dominion were far inferior to Lu Yin in terms of brute force.

Nan Ling’s unseen world had actually been quite a simple one: energy conservation. If the bird removed energy from one space, then it had to replace it with other energy. This was the principle that Nan Ling had used to counter Lu Yin’s earlier attacks.

However, if the energy exceeded the amount that the Plume Immortal could maintain, its unseen world would instantly collapse.

Lu Yin’s strength easily surpassed that limit.

Killing Nan Ling had happened in a mere moment, but the process had started during their very first clash. Lu Yin understood this, but others did not. They only saw the shocking display of Lu Yin instantly killing Nan Ling.

That overwhelming rain of blood incited humanity’s most fervent cheers.

Lu Yin slowly lifted his head, looking at Ni Bieluo, and then at Death's Dominion. Finally, he turned to look at the Divine King near the Tianyuan. "Old Man Hehe, help me hold Ni Bieluo back. I want to kill Death's Dominion."

The branch stream of the River of Aeons surged. "Hehe, how truly domineering. Who in the Aevum Inch would dare to claim that they will kill an Abyss Lord of the Death Megaverse? Kid, I think highly of you. Ni Bieluo will not interfere."

"Thank you." Lu Yin teleported over to Death's Dominion and threw a punch at the towering skeleton.

This punch shattered the void, sending absolute darkness forward. Before the punch, the black light of the plaza shone, only to be broken. Lu Yin’s blow struck the skull head on, knocking it back.

Before, Lu Yin had failed to even budge Death's Dominion, but now…

The massive skeleton raised a hand, forming the Duality Seal.

Lu Yin also raised a hand. His arm withered and then recovered as he threw a palm strike.

Bang!

With a loud crash, the Duality Seal shattered beneath Lu Yin’s palm strike. A terrifying force crashed into the skeletal hand, cracking and breaking its bones.

Death's Dominion was shocked. What kind of power was this?

"Humans cannot possess such strength. Your bodies cannot even sustain it. You have only just broken through and resonate with one cosmic law at best. How is this possible?" They could not believe what had just happened, and they suddenly understood the shock that Nan Ling had just experienced.

This level of physical strength—let alone Nan Ling, but even Death's Dominion would not fare well if they had to fully endure an attack from Lu Yin.

Lu Yin clenched a fist. "Shut up."

With that, he threw another punch. There was no flourish; he simply used pure physical strength to defeat his enemy.

Death's Dominion grabbed the black plaza and slammed it at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin’s punch struck the black plaza. The powerful impact forced both him and Death's Dominion to retreat. The other skeletal hand swept in from the side with another Duality Seal. All around Lu Yin, ripples spread as he transformed into a larger version of himself. With Willforce, he merged with the megaverse.

One of his hands easily blocked the Duality Seal while the other reached across the Nine Odysseys Megaverse to launch an attack towards the Tianyuan, aiming at the Divine King.

That was because the Divine King had also just attacked him.

Lu Yin was forced to face two opponents at once. Only by doing so could he prevent the Divine King from acting at will.

Around the Divine King, points of light formed cone-shaped spikes that shot at Lu Yin, who had merged with the megaverse. His Willforce had also transformed after his breakthrough, and when combined with his physical strength, he managed to shatter the Divine King’s lights with a single palm strike before continuing to reach out for the Divine King.

The Divine King was horrified. How was this possible?
