Chapter 2501: Blue
The person’s figure that was hidden within the light was in a state of constant flux as she tried to land an attack on Lu Yin. Unfortunately, all such attempts were futile. She was unable to touch even the hem of Lu Yin's clothes.
Lu Yin finally retaliated, and he grabbed a hold of the person after instantly appearing at an intersection of the walls. It was a dead end, and Lu Yin was blocking the only exit. People who passed by the connecting corridor were completely oblivious as to what was happening in the dead end, as Lu Yin was blocking their view.
lightsΝοvel The details of the figure sharpened, and Lu Yin saw a girl who wore a combat suit from the Transcendent Universe. She stared at Lu Yin with a combination of fear and nervousness. He had noticed her and had dragged her to this dead end after seeing the horns on her head. This girl was one of the natives of the Cloudflow Universe.
"Let me go," she growled.
Lu Yin released her. "Don't bother attacking me again. You can't afford the consequences."
The girl took a few steps back until she was right next to the wall and unable to move any further back. She then just stared at Lu Yin without saying anything.
"You're from the Cloudflow Universe?" Lu Yin asked curiously.
The girl continued to stare at Lu Yin. "You're not from the Transcendent Universe."
"How can you tell?" Lu Yin was surprised.
"If you were from the Transcendent Universe, I would have been captured by now."
Lu Yin nodded. "I'm just curious. As someone from the Cloudflow Universe, why are you hiding in a wall? Aren't you fighting in this battle?"
"Which universe are you from?" the girl demanded.
Lu Yin's gaze sharpened, and a crushing pressure fell. It felt as though the sky had fallen, and the nearby void was completely shattered.
At that moment, the girl felt as if a god had descended. The terrifying pressure sent her plummeting into the pits of despair. Her mind went completely blank as her body slowly crumpled. She had absolutely no control.
However, the pressure lasted for only a moment.
As soon as Lu Yin withdrew his aura, the girl twisted her body and regained her balance right when she was about to fall to the floor. She looked over at Lu Yin with unmistakable fear in her eyes.
"You- you..." The girl could not say a thing. She had never before experienced such a powerful force, and she struggled to believe what she had just felt.
Lu Yin looked at the girl with open interest and asked, "Do you still have questions?"
She dropped her head. "No, I dare not."
Ever since Lu Yin had arrived in the new universe, his curiosity had been piqued by the place. The odd power that flowed through outer space had captured his attention. The cultivators of the Cloudflow Universe were not weak, as they had proven during the previous battles. There were powerful cultivators with the strength of Semi-Progenitors. This universe had a true cultivation civilization.
Even so, the civilization had been completely conquered by the Transcendent Universe.
Lu Yin wanted to learn as much as he could about the Transcendent Universe through the Cloudflow Universe’s civilization.
The Cloudflow Universe should not be a weak place, considering it had managed to produce the equivalent of Semi-Progenitors. Lu Yin had become curious about the place and whether the universe might be home to any Progenitors.
At this same time, in the Transcendent Universe. There were flowers in full bloom along a certain staircase. A melodious voice rang out, "How is your research proceeding?"
Two boys and a single girl were kneeling at the bottom of the stairs. All three had expressions of devotion on their faces. "We have had smooth progress, Madam. We will not disappoint you."
"Mmm. Whether it’s a cultivation civilization or mythological civilization, all civilizations contain valuable information. If we immerse ourselves only in our own civilization, then others will eventually surpass us. I hope that you will be able to bring an enthusiasm for cultivation to all of the people of the Transcendent Universe. Show the Ruling Council that our future lies in integrating various civilizations." The beautiful voice sounded completely flawless.
All three people enthusiastically replied in unison, "Yes, Madam!"
"Go to the Cloudflow Universe and put on a show of what all you have learned. If you can rouse Qiu Zhan's interest, he will become a part of my vanguard."
"We dedicate our lives to fulfilling Madam’s wishes."
In the Cloudflow Universe, Lu Yin stared at the girl in front of him, shock filling his eyes. If what she had said was true, then the damage the Transcendent Universe had brought to the Cloudflow Universe was truly immense.
Once again, Lu Yin was reminded of Gu Yue's actions. That man had truly been wise to try to prevent the Three Monarchs Universe from connecting to the Fifth Mainland!
The Fifth Mainland could not afford to follow in the footsteps of the Cloudflow Universe.
"For us, it might be acceptable to become a corpse king. At least that would be better than having to endure the torture that the Transcendent Universe puts us through day after day. They don't have any emotions, and they don’t even see us as living creatures, but only as mere tools," the girl spat angrily.
"Who is the strongest person in the Cloudflow Universe?" Lu Yin asked.
The girl replied, "Lord Cloudflow."
"Lord Cloudflow? This universe was named after him?" Lu Yin was surprised.
The woman nodded. "Before Lord Cloudflow appeared, very few people in this universe cultivated, and space itself was different. Lord Cloudflow transformed this universe and created the power that drifts around the stars that allows us to cultivate.
"Our horns are a natural side-effect of cultivating Lord Cloudflow's power. They make it easier for us to cultivate his power."
Lu Yin's eyes flashed. This Lord Cloudflow had to be a Progenitor, given that he had the power to change the universe. There was no other way that he could have altered the entire universe and influenced the evolution of the natives.
Suddenly, an alarm blared.
Lu Yin's expression grew serious. "Aeternus is attacking!"
He turned and left, leaving the girl standing where she was in a daze. Wait, she was free to go?
Lu Yin had no worries of the girl exposing him. He was not from the Transcendent Universe, and had no concern for any of the grudges between the two universes.𝐟𝗿𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝗯𝐧𝗼𝘃𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝐦
Countless scarlet eyes had appeared beyond the carrier yet again, and they rushed towards the carrier.
Lu Yin hurried to recharge his energy converter, yet by the time he managed to return to the platform, it had already been more than a day since he had left.
"Brother-in-law, this wave is even more intense than the last one, so be careful," Luo Lao'er warned.
Lu Yin looked out into space. Beams of black light crisscrossed to form a grid that acted as a shield overhead. Countless corpse kings howled as they rushed at the humans, and some had already reached the platform where Lu Yin and the others stood.
Many platforms had already been destroyed.
After having experienced the last battle, the noble heirs who were with Lu Yin were no longer completely paralyzed by fear.
Countless cultivators from the Cloudflow Universe rushed out, sacrificing their lives in gruesome battles.
Lu Yin watched the people of the Cloudflow Universe, and his expression changed. These people were not merely being forced to suffer as the losers of a conflict.
The intense battle lasted for days.

"Corpse kings!" someone shouted.
Multiple beams of light swept the area. A corpse king charged towards the platform from the metal corridor. Zuo Yu's group quickly worked together to attack, but this corpse king had the strength of an envoy. The people on the platform were not able to hold it back.
Luo Lao'er wailed, "Why do we always have such rotten luck?"
Zuo Yu gritted her teeth. An aura of death radiated from the corpse king as it approached them. The pressure was so potent and oppressive that every nearby human instinctively wanted to flee, yet none of them dared do so.
There was a bang as the corpse king smashed into the platform. It lifted its head and the sight of its crimson eyes brought a blooming despair to the entire crowd.
They had already survived a battle with a similar corpse king, which meant that they were fully aware that even if they all worked together, they would only be offering up their lives.
Zuo Yu let out a long breath. She removed the green energy converter from her chest and replaced it with a different one.
The corpse king released a punch. Once on the carrier, none of the corpse kings would use any attacks that were anything other than pure physical attacks, as anything else would be absorbed by the carrier’s energy converters. The corpse kings could only rely on their physical might.
A blue light flashed, and the corpse king froze and turned its head. A long whip slashed through the void, instantly tearing the corpse king's body into pieces.
Pu!
Zuo Yu spat out a mouthful of blood as she fell to her knees, clutching her chest. Her face was deathly pale.
Lu Yin shot over to her side and helped her up.
She had forced herself to use a blue energy converter, which had allowed her to wield a power level of 800,000 for an instant, but it had nearly destroyed her body.
"I'm alright," Zuo Yu said hoarsely as she sat down and removed the blue energy converter. She took a moment to catch her breath.
Luo Lao'er patted his chest. "That was close. Thank goodness you're fine."
Mu Duo was stunned. "You can use a blue energy converter?"
Zuo Yu wiped the blood from her lips. "After using it, I need to rest for half a month.”
"That's still impressive," Mu Duo said enviously.
Luo Lao'er suggested, "Why don't you use it, Mu Duo? No need to leave it going to waste."
Others chimed in, "Yeah, use it. We believe in you."
"Good idea. Who knows when another corpse king might show up," the muscular youth commented.
A scream pierced the air. It came from a nearby platform.
Everyone looked over to see a corpse king standing on that platform, slaughtering the people who remained and leaving a trail of blood in its wake.
People stared in a daze. This was exactly what the muscular youth had just mentioned.
Zuo Yu clenched her fists. She had already used her blue energy converter once, which meant that she no longer had anything left to give. Suddenly, she remembered something and tossed the energy converter over to Mu Duo. "Quick, use it!"
Mu Duo caught the energy converter and then looked up just in time to see the corpse king turn to look at them and start charging in their direction.
Mu Duo raced to remove his energy converter and replace it with the blue one he had just received. Blue light illuminated the area, and people watched in anticipation. However, instead of defeating the corpse king, Mu Duo coughed up blood and collapsed. He was unable to make use of the energy converter.
"Luo Lao'er, you use it," Mu Duo said weakly. Blook leaked from his mouth, and he was clearly in terrible shape.
Luo Lao'er directed a conflicted expression towards Lu Yin. "Brother-in-law..."
Lu Yin took decisive action and snatched the blue energy converter from Mu Duo's hand.
At the same time, the corpse king landed on their platform. No one noticed that someone else had also arrived from the opposite direction.
Right as the corpse king landed, a girl fell from above. She was one of the three youths who had been kneeling at the bottom of the staircase covered with flowers.
Everyone's attention was so focused on the corpse king that no one other than Lu Yin even noticed the girl.
As for the girl herself, she directed a curious look at the blue energy converter in Lu Yin's hand, surprised to see that anyone on this platform was capable of using such a thing.
The corpse king attacked, its arm swinging down to attack the people in front of it. Anyone who was touched by the attack would be doomed.
"Brother-in-law, hurry!" Luo Lao'er shouted in panic.
Lu Yin pretended to grit his teeth. "Then let's go all out!"
As he spoke, he removed the green energy converter from his chest.
The girl sneered at Lu Yin's recklessness and drew a sword from her waist. Blue light shone brightly, drawing the corpse king’s attention to her.
She slashed the sword upwards at an angle from beneath the corpse king’s falling hand. Blue power tore through the void as an attack headed towards the corpse king's arm.
The corpse king's arm was severed in an instant. The girl's sword moved with clean and precise movements, without any unnecessary moves. Even Lu Yin was impressed by her attack. Her skill was comparable to Li Zimo's when he had first joined the Sword Sect.
Her skill with the sword was comparable to an Enlighter, but the boost from her blue energy converter meant that her attack was equivalent to that of a four- or even a five-tribulation Envoy. With such skills, killing this corpse king was a breeze for the girl.
