Chapter 1879: One Punch



Chapter 1879: One Punch

Lu Yin could no longer see anyone. His tribulation had grown too large, and it had already crossed the earlier battlefield. The Great Eastern Alliance’s fleet had been forced to flee into Frostwave Weave.

At this moment, Lu Yin was all alone as he faced the horrifyingly powerful stellular tribulation. He let out a long breath as he stared upwards. "I can’t even fathom how powerful this is going to be."

As soon as he finished speaking, the space above him started to burn, and an unbearable pressure assaulted him. It was so bad that Lu Yin spat out blood.

He was terrified by what he felt: was that aurelian force?

Off in the distance, Chen Huang looked up and loudly commented, “This feels familiar…"

Everyone was able to see the stellular tribulation, and they all saw how space itself was burning and churning. An intense pressure swept out and covered the entire surrounding area.

Liu Huang raised a hand to touch the power that approached them. "Battle force?"

"That's aurelian force!" The Second Nightking's voice was soft, but it betrayed his shock. “It's actually aurelian force, which is only those who have completely mastered battle force can comprehend. This is a truly invincible power."

Chen Huang grew excited. "My bloodline is resonating! This is the strength of our people!"

Ku Wei was on top of the colossal giant’s shoulder, and he also felt his blood surge within his body. He stared at the tribulation. "Master, something’s wrong! You must endure!"

Across the battlefield, there were also astral beasts who recognized the aurelian fore. Even though this power had disappeared from the Fifth Mainland, there were still a few individuals who recognized it, and Feng Lin was one of them. She was stunned by why she felt. "This is aurelian force! There’s no way for him to survive this."

Elsewhere Lan Xian was similarly startled. “Aurelian force? The child must have also cultivated battle force. What a pity."

The moment the aurelian force appeared, Lu Yin's heart had dropped to the bottom. There was no one in this place who better understood the horror of aurelian force than him. This was an invincible power that could burn space and shatter the void simply by existing.

A fist appeared above Lu Yin. It was massive enough to replace the universe in his sight, and it dropped down towards him.

Lu Yin was already struggling to endure the pressure of the aurelian force, and he reacted purely out of reflex when he saw the descending fist. He retaliated with his own punch that was reinforced with his golden battle force.

Bang!

A deafening noise shook the area, and Lu Yin’s body was smashed down by the fist, and cracks started to spread across his skin. All of Northcastle Weave was shaken by this blow, and countless people felt their hearts tremble. Many people were even killed by the sudden shock to their hearts.

They stared across the distance at the incomparably massive fist. It was as if they were looking at an ant confronting a tree.

Were humans the masters of the universe? People had believed that to be true in the past, but as they stared at the enormous fist and the oppressive and invincible aurelian force that shattered space, they found themselves unable to even speak. They felt as small as ants.

Countless astral beasts stared at this fist that seemed to suppress the universe itself in terror.

Lan Xian was startled. "That fist?"

Qing Hua looked solemn as he stared at the tribulation. "It's Chen Fan’s."

"Chen Fan? The one who crossed realms to kill a Semi-Progenitor?" Lan Xian was shocked. She was the only Semi-Progenitor present, but she was still younger than Qing Hua, and thus there were many things that she did not know.

Master Qing Hua nodded. "He was a colossal giant who was considered a disgrace by the giants, though he still managed to cultivate aurelian force. He challenged a Semi-Progenitor who was as strong as an Empyrean Imprinter and killed the powerhouse, proving himself to be a Realmbreaker. He fought against our Sixth Mainland on behalf of the Fifth Mainland and accomplished great things, but he was eventually killed by a different Semi-Progenitor."

Lan Xian was amazed. It was amazing for anyone to cross realms to kill a Semi-Progenitor. She had casually killed Sword King. But Chen Fan had been someone at the same power level as the astral beast, and yet he had supposedly managed to kill a Semi-Progenitor. This was indeed a feat worthy of being recorded down in history.

"Chen Fan's aurelian force was peerless during his era. He was the only one who was able to break an inner world with aurelian force. It’s surprising to see this stellular tribulation manifest his power. That fist does not even seem to be a copy of his strength from when he first became an Envoy, but rather from when he reached a power level of 600,000 or even 700,000. Lu Yin is being forced to cross realms to face Chen Fan's aurelian force. I have no idea how he will handle this," Qing Hua continued.

While the Empyrean Imprinter was dazzled by Lu Yin’s talent, the youth was facing off against opponents who were famous throughout history and who had been admired through the ages. Still, Qing Hua could not deny that Lu Yin was qualified to face such opponents. Not even Chen Fan would have been able to go against people with power levels of 700,000 while only an Enlighter.

Chen Fan had become a peerless powerhouse later on in life, which meant that Lu Yin was not facing a completely helpless situation.

Lu Yin was in a terrible situation at this moment. His golden battle force had shattered the moment it met the massive fist, and his body was being continuously pressed down. Fortunately, his physical strength was extremely high, and his mastery of the Overlaying Stacks Path was enough to keep him from being completely overwhelmed.

This was not his first time facing the terror of aurelian force. He had actually faced it multiple times when training with the Warden in Gaia’s Swamp. Back then, Lu Yin had been struck numerous times by aurelian force, but if he were to compare the Warden’s aurelian force to the fist in his stellular tribulation, the fist’s was more condensed and completely unshakeable.

The Immovable Heavenly King Elephant appeared behind Lu Yin as he used his visualization method, and the massive creature appeared before everyone's eyes.

Qing Hua blurted, "An imprint? No… is that? Is that an Immovable Heavenly King Elephant?"

Lan Xian's eyes flickered and lit up as she stared at Lu Yin. "The Immovable Heavenly King Elephant? The technique of the Lu family from back then?"

This comment startled Qing Hua. Lu Yin… Is he from the Lu family?

The appearance of the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant had caught Qing Hua completely off guard, but the appearance also shocked Lu Yin himself.

While this was not Lu Yin’s first time using the visualization method, its manifestation was completely different from the previous times. This time, Lu Yin heard a roar echoing from ancient times. It was the roar of the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant, and in that single moment, he felt as though he had traveled to the past; he saw an unfathomable large pillar standing in space. The top could not even be seen, and the pillar seemed to support the entire universe.

There was a man standing in front of the celestial pillar, his back to Lu Yin as he cheered in delight. While Lu Yin could not hear anything that the man said, he could sense the man’s happiness and excitement. There was a blood connection between them.

Suddenly, the man leaped up, and Lu Yin saw the lower half of the man’s face. The man looked a great deal like Lu Yin.

While Lu Yin was feeling confused, he felt something pull at his body, and he rose up higher along with the man. Suddenly, Lu Yin was able to see more clearly; the pillar was not a pillar, but rather the leg of an elephant. It was the leg of the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant.

Lu Yin rose up higher, and he saw someone sitting upon the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant. The man had 90% of Lu Yin’s facial features, and he patted the elephant excitedly while still chatting. This vision seemed to have allowed Lu Yin to peer into the past, but everything quickly dissipated as though it were nothing more than a dream.

Terrible pain wracked Lu Yin’s body as he was struck by a huge fist that pressed down upon him, pushing him further down through the sky.

Everyone was shocked. Lu Yin had failed. He could not endure.

Xu Qing and other astral beasts were all ecstatic. Anyone who failed their stellular tribulation would die.

The Sea King and many humans had ugly expressions on their faces, and Ku Wei looked as though he was staring at his dead father. The Second Nightking and Liu Huang were both calm while Mountain God could not resist growing excited.

Lan Xian and Qing Hua both appeared calm, and it was impossible to know what either was thinking.

Lu Yin stared at his tribulation.

Suddenly, a roar echoed out, powerful enough to cause space to tremble. Everyone stared in shock at the visualized Immovable Heavenly King Elephant. At this moment, it did not resemble an imprint, but rather a genuine, living creature.

It grew larger and larger, and in the blink of an eye, it was already bigger than the fist. It let out a roar, and there was a bang.

The fist was forced back.

Blood covered Lu Yin, his eyes bloodshot. He bit down on his lips and punched back at the enormous fist with all his might. The power of this punch was enough to terrify people, and many of the onlookers felt their hearts begin to race. They watched in horrified fascination as Lu Yin began his counterattack. They stared as the aurelian force was shattered by Lu Yin’s punch.

Boom!

Lu Yin’s right fist rose to the pinnacle, and his attack blasted out. The shockwave sliced through space, quickly reaching both the Great Eastern Alliance’s fleet and the astral beast horde.

The giant fist shattered. Lu Yin had completely unraveled the aurelian force.

The Sea King suddenly shot forward. He stretched out a hand to touch the shockwave as it swept through, and his body was forced back by an overwhelming power. The Envoy looked completely horrified. He had only touched the shockwave, and yet he been forced back. Just how powerful was Lu Yin’s punch just now?

The Immovable Heavenly Elephant King was one of the Lu family’s visualization methods that had been coveted by countless powers. How could it merely double the power of an attack?

Visualization methods were the Lu family’s unique power that had been coveted by the Perennial World’s four ruling powers, and each of the family’s methods had its own unique aspects.

The true visualization method of the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant when used by someone with the Lu family’s bloodline was able to increase the power of an attack by tenfold.

In the past, Lu Yin had only employed the visualization method without stimulating his blood. At this moment, possibly because Sword King’s attack had struck Lu Yin’s seal or because of the blood that covered his body, Lu Yin was able to utilize the true power of the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant visualization method. Thus, his attack had been amplified ten times over.

After it was magnified tenfold, Lu Yin’s punch instantly shattered even aurelian force.

Lu Yin stood alone in space with his arms at his sides. He was working to catch his breath as the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant slowly disappeared from behind him.

He looked up at the vortex that formed his stellular tribulation, and his pupils constricted when he saw that it was still not disappearing. This tribulation really wanted to see him dead!

His body was covered with blood, but the tribulation still was not over.

Xu Qing and the countless spectating astral beasts who all wanted to see Lu Yin fail could not even get excited when they saw that Lu Yin’s tribulation was not over. The Celestial Demon’s Force Explosion and Chen Fan’s aurelian force were each powerful enough to wipe out almost every single individual on the battlefield, and very few of them had the confidence to face these attacks. But despite that, Lu Yin had survived both of them.

And yet, his tribulation continued.

All living creatures were treated equally by stellular tribulations, and all creatures would be forced to face a tribulation when their strength reached the required threshold. At this moment, even Xu Qing felt a sense of sadness.

Cultivating was a matter of going against the universe itself, and once someone surpassed their tribulation, they would become capable of absorbing stellular energy. However, that would also earn them the enmity of the true universe. Cultivators’ true enemy was the universe itself, and stellular tribulations meant that they could go against any power, force, or individual who had ever appeared in the true universe.

Across the way, Qing Hua's eyes flickered. "That was the strength of the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant. He used that to shatter aurelian force, and Chen Fan's aurelian force at that."

Lan Xian stared intently at Lu Yin. It was impossible to know what she was thinking.

The entire region fell silent as everyone stared at the vortex of the stellular tribulation. It had not begun to dissipate yet, which meant that Lu Yin still had not finished. What would the tribulation throw at him next?

Lu Yin clenched his fists tightly. He felt that this was going as expected. After all, neither the Celestial Demon nor the aurelian force that he had just faced were enough to reach the same level as Bai Xian’er’s tribulation that had drawn the attention of even Progenitors. Lu Yin’s tribulation continued to grow, and he intended to see it do so until it drew the attention of Progenitors and the entire Fifth Mainland.

Come on! Lu Yin’s eyes blazed as he stared at his stellular tribulation. He was eager to see what would appear next.

Countless individuals watched in silence as a figure formed from the stellular tribulation vortex. The person slowly descended and stood there quietly. This figure did not make any impressive movements, and yet everyone who saw it grew pale.

Lan Xian froze stiff. This was a humanoid tribulation.

Of all of the various forms of stellular tribulations, humanoid ones were the most dangerous. The appearance of such a tribulation indicated that the tribulation was certain of its victory against the challenger, and everyone intuitively sensed this fact.
