Chapter 1840: Immovable Heavenly King Elephant

Xin Nü considered the question for a while. "While others may not know this, I am still a member of a branch of the Lu family, so I’ve heard of it before. First, there was my Lu family’s ancestor, Lu Tianyi, the Xia family’s Progenitor Chen, the Celestial Frost Sect’s Bai Wangyuan, the Wang family’s Wang Fan, Progenitor Hui, the Rune Progenitor, Progenitor Ku, and Progenitor Smoke."

"That’s only eight people."

"Progenitor Chen controlled two Mountains and a Sea."

While this amazed Lu Yin, it was expected that the invincible Progenitor Chen had been able to seize more than just one.

"Lu Tianyi was my Lu family’s ancestor?" Lu Yin asked.

Xin Nü corrected him, saying, "Progenitor Lu Tianyi was merely the current ancestor of the Lu family. Our Lu family has a very long history, as do the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas. Before the Progenitors that I just mentioned, others controlled the Mountains and Seas, but they were the ones during my time. There were rumors that, at the weakest moment of the Fifth Mainland’s Daosource Sect, there were only one or two Progenitors who managed to be recognized by the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas.”

"What sort of person was Progenitor Smoke?" Lu Yin asked. Of everyone that Xin Nü had mentioned, Progenitor Smoke was the one that Lu Yin had heard the least about, though this was not Lu Yin’s first time hearing the name. Progenitor Smoke’s smoke was truly miraculous. Both Eversky Island and Smoke-Eater Peaks possessed a bit of the smoke. While Progenitor Smoke was not particularly famous, they had left behind many legacies.

Xin Nü’s smile turned bitter. "I only ever heard a bit about the powerhouses at the Progenitor level. There were stories that claimed that Progenitor Smoke liked to create all kinds of smoke, but I don’t really know anything more than that."

"Did you hear of Progenitor Wushang back then?" Lu Yin eagerly asked. This was his first time meeting someone from the ancient era, and he wanted to learn everything possible.

Xin Nü replied, "Progenitor Wushang was another powerful Progenitor from my Fifth Mainland, and he also fought in the war."

Lu Yin stared at Xin Nü, waiting for her to continue, but she stayed silent. She had not been a part of the main battle, and she had even been sealed in stone halfway through the war. On top of that, because of how weak she had been at the time, she had not known about many matters. It was actually quite impressive that she knew this much about the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas.

Lu Yin asked a few more questions, but Xin Nü was not really able to answer anything more.

Given Lu Yin's status and perspective in the Fifth Mainland, the questions that he asked were all regarding matters at the heart of the ancient war, and Xin Nü’s status had been far from high enough for her to know about such things. All she could do was share some rumors that she had heard, but they were essentially meaningless.

Still, Lu Yin felt quite satisfied, as he had at least learned about some of the general details regarding the first war between the Fifth and Sixth Mainlands.

The two ended up talking for a long time without even realizing it. "Is the visualization method unique to my Lu family?"

"Not unique, but at least it wasn’t something that those traitors possessed."

“Did the Sixth Mainland have imprints back then?"

"No."

Lu Yin fell deep into thought.

"Since you still don’t have your memories, you aren’t able to use a visualization method, are you? I can teach you, though the only method that I know is my branch family’s Immovable Heavenly King Elephant. The Lu family’s direct line has a different visualization method, but that’s not something that I can help you with,” Xin Nü offered.

Lu Yin considered the proposal. "Okay."

"The Immovable Heavenly King Elephant was a creature from ancient times. It was said to be one of the largest creatures in the entire universe, and at the moment of its birth, the universe itself roared, and the six Mainlands all shook. The ancestors of our Lu family watched that first Immovable Heavenly King Elephant and used it to create this visualization method. This method of copying powers formed the path to help our family develop an invincible style of fighting." As Xin Nü spoke, the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant appeared behind her. "This visualization is the result of that."

Lu Yin stared intently at the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant and immediately began to follow Xin Nü’s instructions to comprehend the visualization method.

In the Neoverse, just beyond the Xia family’s sword-shaped mainland, Elder Gong and Highsage Grandmaster both appeared. "Xia Ji, come out!"

There was a shout loud enough to shake the entire region controlled by the Seven Courts.

The various powers that formed the Court of Seven Names occupied a circular region that surrounded Progenitor Chen's Mausoleum.

The old man’s fierce shout prompted various eyes to open within the various Seven Courts. They were the individual families’ strongest powerhouses.

Of the seven different territories, the two old men were closest to the Xia family’s.

Xia Meng’s eyes opened. Semi-Progenitors? Why are they here?

Elder Gong and Highsage Grandmaster had done nothing to hide their strength, and the power of two Semi-Progenitors caused the Xia family’s mainland to shake.

Xia Ji soon appeared, looking perfectly calm. "Have you two come to my Seven Courts to put on a demonstration?"

Elder Gong stepped forward, his old face no longer appearing indifferent to worldly affairs. There was steel in his gaze. "Xia Ji, where is Lu Yin?"

Xia Ji’s expression changed. While he had expected someone to confront him in an attempt to rescue Lu Yin, Xia Ji had not expected two Semi-Progenitors to show up at once. In particular, Elder Gong’s attitude left Xia Ji more convinced than ever that Lu Yin had some sort of extraordinary relationship with the Cosmic Sect. "Is this a joke? Two respected Semi-Progenitors have come to see me just because of some child?"

"You're a respected Semi-Progenitor yourself, and yet you actually went and attacked a child! Tell me, which sounds more like a joke?" Elder Gong retorted.

Xia Ji's eyes flickered. "Just what is Lu Yin’s relationship with your Cosmic Sect? What is it about him that makes him worthy of the sect’s Supreme Elder stepping out to save him?"

"So do you admit that you kidnapped Lu Yin?" Elder Gong would not be distracted.

Xia Ji replied indifferently, "I didn’t kidnap him. I simply wanted to ask him about something, and I intended to release him afterwards."

"Where is he now?" Elder Gong demanded.

"He already left, so go find him yourselves."

"He’s currently in the ruins of the Daosource Sect, so tell us, where will he appear once he leaves that place?" Highsage Grandmaster spoke up.

Xia Ji looked over at the Grandmaster. "I already allowed him to leave. Figure out where he’ll return on your own."

"Xia Ji, do you really want to force my Cosmic Sect to go to war with your Xia family?" Elder Gong suddenly shouted, and countless stars appeared around his body and replaced the universe that surrounded the three men. This was Elder Gong’s inner world.

Each star was massive, and some of them even smashed into true stars and formed black holes.fre(e)webnovel

A long knife appeared before Xia Ji as he stared at Elder Gong. He did not want to fight these two despite pulling off a victory before. He had taken advantage of Highsage Grandmaster’s Thousand Rivers Return to Sea secret technique to steal a win, but Xia Ji knew that he could not defeat the two together when it came to true strength. On top of that, Xia Ji was currently injured.

"Does your Cosmic Sect wants to start a war with my Seven Courts just because of Lu Yin? Why is he so important to you?" Xia Ji held his knife and pointed it at Elder Gong.

Highsage Grandmaster looked up. "Every disciple from Eversky Island is my child. If there is a fight between them their peers, I will not interfere. However, Xia Ji, you are a Semi-Progenitor and yet you went after one of my Eversky Island’s children. I cannot ignore this."

Xia Ji’s eyes flickered.

The three Semi-Progenitors’ inner worlds collided, and space within the Seven Courts’ territory began to shatter.

At this moment, Xia Meng suddenly appeared. "Ancestor, Arch-Elder Zen is calling you."

Xia Ji lowered his knife and took the offered gadget. He immediately saw Arch-Elder Zen. "Where is Lu Yin?"

Xia Ji quietly replied, "I let him go."

The two stared at each other for a while, and then Arch-Elder Zen asked, “Did you really let him go?"

Xia Ji’s voice grew cold. "He’s gone."

Arch-Elder Zen nodded. "I believe you, though I hope that you aren’t lying to me. You cannot touch Lu Yin."

Xia Ji subconsciously glanced over at Elder Gong and Highsage Grandmaster. "Just because of the Cosmic Sect and Eversky Island? Do not forget that his true identity will bring disaster to the Fifth Mainland."

"There is someone else behind him," Arch-Elder Zen stated. "That person is someone whom you and I cannot afford to offend. I will be blunt: I cannot cross that person."

Xia Ji was startled, as he was very familiar with Arch-Elder Zen’s personality. It was impossible for the man to try to scare Xia Ji into releasing Lu Yin, which meant that these words had to be true. "Who?”

"All you need to know is that you cannot touch Lu Yin, or else no one will be able to protect you." Arch-Elder Zen immediately ended the call.

Xia Ji tossed the gadget back to Xia Meng before turning back to face Elder Gong and Highsage Grandmaster. "If I tell you I let him go, then I don’t have him. He won’t encounter any trouble from me."

Elder Gong and Highsage Grandmaster glanced at each other, as neither was certain that Xia Ji was being truthful.

"In that case, we believe you," Highsage Grandmaster declared.

Elder Gong then spoke up, "By the way, how long has it been since we last visited the Seven Courts? We should take a look again."

Highsage Grandmaster smiled. "I quite enjoy the sight of the Netherworld River."

"I find that I enjoy the mountains and rivers on the Xia family’s mainland."

"Then let’s stay and visit for a while."

Xia Ji’s brows climbed high. While these two old men said they trusted him, they clearly wanted to keep an eye on him! They were going to monitor him. "I’ll accompany you."

At the moment, there was no reason to make another move, but there was also no way that Xia Ji could simply let Lu Yin go. The old man had plotted for so long and had even fought off two Semi-Progenitors in order to acquire Progenitor Chen’s inheritance, and he was now almost completely certain that Lu Yin possessed that inheritance. It was impossible for Xia Ji to forget about Lu Yin.

***

In Burial Garden, water rained down from the sky to form Water God’s Tears as it surrounded Liu Feng. Dojo Master Si was covered in blood, but she still raised a hand and caused the stream of water to form two cliffs that were about to fall.

Liu Feng appeared as calm as ever despite being trapped by the Water God’s Tears. There was not even a hint of panic to be seen. Instead, the edge of his sword twitched, and a sword slash swept out.

The Water God’s Tears was sliced through, and the sword qi continued on straight towards Dojo Master Si. Her hands dropped, and the cliffs of water formed from her innate gift fell. Not only was Liu Feng’s sword qi shattered, but he was also pressed to the ground. "Go! Now!"

One of Burial Garden’s exit gates stood nearby, and Yang Kong was standing next to it. However, when he started moving, he suddenly charged at Liu Feng. "Why would I leave? I’m going to kill him."

"Watch out!" Dojo Master Si shouted. Liu Feng had been suppressed beneath the two cliffs of water, but he still flipped his sword around, and a slash sped across the sky, slicing through space and into the true universe as it approached Yang Kong. The young man had not expected Liu Feng to still be able to fight back after being trapped by Dojo Master Si, so Yang Kong was caught off guard, and his arm was almost cut off.

At this moment, a beam of light shot through the sky towards the three people from the distance. It was one of the Hall of Honor’s Envoy-level androids.

Yang Kong's face twisted.

"Someone else has arrived. We’ve been branded as public enemies. We need to find our way back to the Starfall Sea." Dojo Master Si coughed up blood as she spoke.

But how could Yang Kong possibly know where the gate that led to the Starfall Sea was? They had never planned to return so quickly after entering Burial Garden, but that was because Yang Kong had not expected to be exposed so quickly. It had to have been that bastard Lie Yanzi, as there was no other option.

However, Lie Yanzi also had to already be dead, as no one could survive the Aeternals’ poisons.

"Go!" Yang Kong spun around and prepared to flee.freewebnovel.c(o)m

Liu Feng slashed at the two cliffs of water with his sword at just the right time. He stared at both Dojo Master Si and Yang Kong while clenching the hilt of his sword before slashing out again.

Dojo Master Si was furious, and she turned around to defend against the attack with her water while simultaneously trying to extract the water from Liu Feng's body. However, the swordsman’s strength surpassed Dojo Master Si’s, and Liu Feng passed by the woman and attacked Yang Kong.

However, Yang Kong’s eyes turned green. This was a Green Eyes Transformation.

A strange light flickered within the android’s eyes, and it instantly attacked Yang Kong, who retaliated with a punch that drove the android back.

Right when Yang Kong turned around and was about to leave through the gate, the space around him was cut off, and he was surrounded by something black. It was the secret technique: Black Coffin. Unseen Light had arrived.

Countless sharp spikes stabbed into the black coffin, and a roar shook the skies. The coffin shattered with a bang to reveal Yang Kong. There were wounds across his entire body, and his clothes were stained with blood. He moved forward and instantly entered the true universe to attack Unseen Light.
