Star Odyssey-Chapter 2758: The Power Of Laws
Chapter 2758: The Power Of Laws
Lu Yin was horrified. With Heaven’s Sight, he was able to see how Old Mo had suddenly started mobilizing the sequence particles. Darkness fell, devouring everything. This was a level of power that should not exist.
Even the Chiliagonist’s consciousness that had merged with divine energy was suppressed. Old Mo had gone completely insane. He had slept in the Umbral Universe for countless years, ever since the Heavens Sect era, just to find Heaven’s Sight. Regardless of the price that he had been willing to pay, he had never been able to find Wu Tian’s legacy, and when it was finally found, it was picked up by some little rat. Even more infuriating was that the little rat wanted to escape, but Old Mo would not allow that to happen.
After all, this little rat was part of the Lu family.
"You are seeking death!" Old Mo roared in fury. The darkness grew even deeper as it suppressed everything in the entire universe, aside from the light that came from Heaven’s Sight. The darkness could do nothing to suppress that beam of light.
The longer that the light endured and remained untouched for, the more frustrated and enraged Old Mo became.
He was well aware of just how powerful Wu Tian's Heaven's Sight was. Heaven’s Sight was what had allowed Wu Tian to rise to the same level as the God of Death and Destiny, becoming one of the Three Realms.
The God of Death had created death energy, while Destiny had developed the ability to see the future. Wu Tian had only ever cultivated the Origin Progenitor’s stellular energy, which had been very common, and yet such a common cultivator had managed to develop Heaven’s Sight. The ability to see through any battle technique or weapon technique had set Wu Tian on the same level as the God of Death or Destiny. Wu Tian had then used that ability to develop weapons techniques for humanity and shared them widely. He had been both a pioneer and a mentor for all of humanity, and he had done so with his Heaven’s Sight.
No, Old Mo had to obtain Heaven’s Sight.
Old Mo ignored the Chiliagonist and blended in with the darkness. He instantly appeared directly in front of Lu Yin, but the old man did not dare use too much of his power against Lu Yin. The child could not be killed, as that would just cause Heaven’s Sight to disappear again. Old Mo knew that he was not capable of finding Heaven’s Sight himself, due to Wu Tian’s punishment. It was possible that this child was the only one capable of grabbing Heaven’s Sight.
The more that Old Mo considered this possibility, the more he felt that he was on the right track. Perhaps this brat had not appeared to compete with Old Mo for Heaven’s Sight, but to obtain Wu Tian’s legacy for Old Mo.
Lu Yin watched as Old Mo appeared. It was impossible for Lu Yin to stand up to such an incredible level of power. The only thing that Lu Yin could try was to use Evernight.
It was impossible for him to pull Old Mo into the card, so Lu Yin entered the card himself, and Old Mo followed without any hesitation.
Did the Lost Clan still have any cards that could trap him? Unless that one old man from the Lost Clan showed up himself, no one was capable of trapping Old Mo.
Evernight was a seven-star Immemorial card, which could theoretically allow Lu Yin to kill Progenitors. But unless Lu Yin possessed that same level of cultivation, it would be very difficult for him to use the full killing power of the card.
More importantly, Evernight used the same power as Old Mo, which was absolute darkness that could leave anyone completely blind.
How could that power possibly defeat Old Mo?
When Old Mo entered Evernight, he instantly started laughing. "You’re actually trying to use the same power that I cultivate to attack me? Child of the Lu family, you are even dumber than Lu Buzheng."
Lu Yin had not been left with any choice, and he had simply wanted to buy himself a bit of time.
However, once Old Mo entered Evernight, Lu Yin realized that the sequence particles that had connected Old Mo to the Umbral Universe no longer existed.
What was going on? Could the Immemorial card isolate the laws of a universe?
Sure enough, a seven-star Immemorial card was truly powerful. If evaluated according to the standard of human cultivators, Evernight most likely corresponded to the peak of human cultivation. Even if it was not on the same level as the Origin Progenitor or the Great Sovereign, it should at least be on the same level as the Three Realms Six Dao. It was not impossible for such a card to isolate sequence particles.
Once inside Evernight, Old Mo also quickly realized what was wrong. He was incredibly proud that his own strength, as he had cultivated to the point where he was infinitely close to Wu Tian’s power, and yet he had now lost access to that power. "What kind of card is this?"
Lu Yin held the slipper in his hand as he took a step forward, swinging the slipper at the ancient powerhouse’s head.
Regardless of whether Evernight could be used to attack Old Mo, as long as the man remained inside the card, his greatest source of strength would be unavailable to him.
While Old Mo was still extremely powerful and far surpassed Lu Yin’s own level, the man had been weakened to the point where Lu Yin no longer felt pure despair when facing Old Mo.
After realizing that he could not use his greatest power, Old Mo's wariness instantly rose. In the pure darkness of the card, Lu Yin was still able to see with Heaven’s Sight, but Old Mo could also see with his own power.
While Evernight eliminated all light, darkness was essentially an extension of Old Mo’s own body, which meant that he could sense any movement in the dark.
"Do you really think that you can defeat me in this manner? Little rat from the Lu family, you overestimate yourself!" Not only did Old Mo avoid the slipper, but he also managed to instantly appear behind Lu Yin. A finger pointed forward in what appeared to be a piercing attack, but instead, a cone of darkness was emptied and pulled back, yanking Lu Yin backwards.
This finger technique that could compress the darkness was extremely powerful, as well as Old Mo’s ability to freely move about in the darkness.
Lu Yin used Inverse Step and used the resulting field of chaotic time and space to escape, startling Old Mo. "Infinite Steps? It’s no wonder you obtained Heaven’s Sight. What you got is Wu Xing's strength."
The man’s body swayed, and he also used Inverse Step to move through space, though he was unable to influence time. The old man’s mastery of Inverse Step was clearly inferior to Lu Yin’s.
"You actually managed to reverse both time and space?" Old Mo exclaimed.
Lu Yin looked back. "Old Mo, did you betray Wu Tian?"
"Do you actually believe that Aeternal’s words? You have already joined forces with a corpse king! If Wu Tian learns of this, he will undoubtedly erase your entire family!" Old Mo mocked as his hand rose up. Darkness condensed, and pressure fell upon the entire place.
This felt quite familiar to Lu Yin, as it was what had happened when he and Shan Pu had been deprived of the ability to see.
However, at this moment, it should be impossible for Old Mo to blind Lu Yin, as the old man’s power could not suppress Heaven’s Sight. No, this time, the old man was most likely attacking Lu Yin himself.
Lu Yin stared at Old Mo with Heaven’s Sight. The ancient powerhouse’s influence extended outwards without end, but with Heaven’s Sight, Lu Yin was able to clearly perceive every one of Old Mo’s actions. Lu Yin felt an incredible sense of clarity, and he continuously broke down and analyzed every action that Old Mo made. The man was using a battle technique, and by observing a battle technique with Heaven’s Sight, Lu Yin was able to break down and thoroughly analyze what he was seeing. This was the true power of Heaven's Sight.
There was no denying that Old Mo was incredibly powerful, but as long as he was inside Evernight, he was unable to influence sequence particles. He was still an incredibly powerful Progenitor, and he far exceeded Lu Yin’s own level of strength, as well as that of Shan Pu or most other peak powerhouses. But despite the old man’s power, his battle technique was still laid bare beneath Heaven’s Sight.
Lu Yin used Inverse Step, as he could clearly see that the darkness was approaching him from every direction. Even so, he managed to evade, and he did so in a seemingly impossible manner.
He moved through the attack because Old Mo’s technique had been completely broken down for Lu Yin.
Old Mo was stunned. How had this child avoided that attack? The man’s eyes blazed, as he recognized the power of Heaven’s Sight. It allowed a person to find impossible options and then use them by seeing every flaw in a technique. While Old Mo was facing a mere six-tribulation Envoy, the child was able to see through the attacks of a peak powerhouse like Old Mo.
Who would not covet such a miraculous ability?
It was this ability that had caused Old Mo to betray Wu Tian in the first place. He had dreamed of possessing this ability for countless years.
Given Old Mo’s current strength, after obtaining Heaven’s Sight, he would have risen up to become the second Wu Tian. Even if Wu Tian still lived, he may not be able to defeat Old Mo.
"Give me Heaven’s Sight!" Old Mo shouted. "Passing Oblivion."
Darkness descended as Lu Yin stared at Old Mo. This was the old man’s Progenitor’s world. novelbuddy(.)com
A Progenitor’s world fell, and there was no place in Evernight where Lu Yin could avoid it. In response, Lu Yin shouted, "Old monster, if you try to kill me, I will destroy Heaven’s Sight first!"
Old Mo sneered. "Can someone like you even destroy Heaven’s Sight?"
Lu Yin took out the bone spur. "This was what led me to Heaven’s Sight. I received it in the Voidforce Universe. Could you be unaware that Lord Xu and Wu Tian are good friends?"
Old Mo stared at the bone spur, enveloped by darkness. There was no denying that the bone spur contained Wu Tian's power, and Old Mo had also seen the bone spur drag Lu Yin away, and he recognized the power vessel.
For a moment, the old man became uncertain.
Lu Yin pointed the bone spur at the center of his forehead. "At worst, I will die alone with Heaven’s Sight. If I die, you will never be able to get Heaven’s Sight." f reewe bnovel
Old Mo stared at Lu Yin. "Do you want to die?"
"Of course not."
"Give me Heaven's Sight, and I will let you live."
Lu Yin laughed. "Old monster, you may be smart, but I’m no fool! Do you really think that I’ll believe that?"
"You don’t have any choice," Old Mo retorted in a cold voice.
Lu Yin shook his head. "Of course I have a choice. Let me go."
"What a joke." Old Mo stepped forward, and Lu Yin instantly grew alert. From behind, the darkness erupted to attack him, but Lu Yin spun around and lashed out with a palm strike. A purplish-black substance covered his hand as the visualization method of the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant appeared. His attack shattered the void.
Lu Yin had been prepared for this attack for some time. There was no reason for Old Mo to verbally threaten Lu Yin, and the fact that the man had done so indicated that he was about to attack.
Seeing Lu Yin block the darkness exceeded Old Mo’s expectations. He had not used that powerful of an attack, as he did not want to damage Heaven’s Sight, but that did not mean that the old man had been gentle with his attack either. He had used just enough power to incapacitate Lu Yin, only for the child to block the attack. On top of that... "Is that the same power as Hen Xin? Why do you possess that?"
Lu Yin raised a hand and waved his Wielder - Indestructible about. "I learned it."
Old Mo was genuinely impressed. "The Third Mainland’s Dao Monarch developed a unique cultivation method that raised a human body’s strength to rival a Progenitor’s power. However, only he and Hen Xin ever managed to successfully cultivate that method out of everyone who attempted to do so. So you actually succeeded as well? I understand now. Not only are you a genius from the Lu family, you are clearly no worse than Lu Tianyi.
"It would be a pity for such a talented child to die. Just give me Heaven's Sight, and I swear to not to touch you. On top of that, I can even offer a promise to owe you a favor, provided that you give me Heaven's Sight."
Lu Yin's heart skipped a beat. "Really?"
"Absolutely." Old Mo's eyes filled with excitement. He had already sacrificed a great deal in order to obtain Heaven’s Sight.
Lu Yin grew solemn. "Let me think about this."
Old Mo frowned. "What is there to think about? The higher one’s cultivation, the less likely they are to make pledges, especially someone at my level. Oaths involve karma and levels of power beyond your understanding. No one will make a promise or swear an oath unless they have no other choice."
Lu Yin shook his head. "At your level, things like karma can be broken."
Old Mo's eyes widened sharply. "Break karma? That means touching the governing laws of a universe."
"Haven’t you already reached that level with darkness?" Lu Yin shot back.
Old Mo stared at Lu Yin for a long moment. "You seem to know quite a bit, child. Lu Tianyi could not compare to you when he was your age.
"However, your knowledge is still limited. Even if the governing laws of a universe can be broken, doing so requires a significant price to be paid, and even someone with my power will receive the hostility of the universe that it happens in. There are universes that cannot be entered freely, and you also cannot interfere with the governing laws of a universe just because you want to.
"You know too little."
At this moment, the Chiliagonist entered Evernight. The absolute darkness of the card did not phase the corpse king, and his consciousness shot straight at Old Mo.
The corpse king was afraid that Old Mo would steal Heaven’s Sight from Lu Yin, and the Chiliagonist had only stayed in the Umbral Universe for so many years because of Heaven’s Sight.
He could not abandon this battle. No matter what, he had to stall Old Mo.
Lu Yin had not expected the Chiliagonist to enter Evernight. Did the corpse king also intend to try to steal Heaven's Sight? If not, he should have left Lu Yin to fight against Old Mo on his own.
There was no time to dwell on such matters. The corpse king had entered Evernight, and Lu Yin would not hold back against it.
