Star Odyssey-Chapter 2833: Come Back Soon

Big Sis looked up and saw her own memories, which caused her eyebrows to rise. "This path has never been walked before. Even during the Heavens Sect era, it would be difficult to see such a scene. Very few people were capable of truly breaking free from cultivating with stellular energy."

She looked at the mountain behind the Heavens Sect. "Little Seven has found an incredible person."

Lu Buzheng, Destina, and the others all looked at the mountain as well. They understood just how rare it was for someone to become a Progenitor by walking down a path completely independent of the Origin Progenitor’s. In the Heavens Sect era, the most well-known ones had been the God of Death and Destiny. Gu Yizhi and most of the other Three Realms Six Dao had only managed to break free from cultivating with stellular energy after they had already reached the peak.

Wu Tian was regarded as an outlier among the Three Realms Six Dao. He had only ever cultivated with stellular energy, but he had also managed to reach the pinnacle.

Shao Chen was taking an unprecedented path, and it was impossible for anyone to imagine what his future would hold.

Kui Luo was arrogant, and he served only the Lu family, showing contempt for the four ruling powers and even their Progenitors like Bai Wangyuan. However, even he had been convinced of Shao Chen’s ability, admitting that the headmaster had surpassed him despite the short amount of time since Shao Chen had become a Semi-Progenitor. It was easy to imagine just how shocking Shao Chen’s path truly was.

Throughout both the Heavens Sect era, when human cultivation reached its greatest heights, and the Daosource Sect era, when masters had appeared for all of the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas, very few people like Shao Chen had ever appeared.

The rainbows of memory formed the mortal world, and the mortal world refined Shao Chen’s heart. This was his tribulation.

The headmaster took a single step to cross over the Chiliagonist’s memories. The man paused for a moment before moving on to Leng Qing's memory. Shao Chen was walking through their memories, which caused him to feel as though he was a part of their lives. This was a tribulation that only Shao Chen could experience.

No one stopped the man, as no one knew what might potentially happen if they tried to stop the headmaster from challenging his tribulation. After all, this was a Progenitor’s tribulation, and if the reaction was the same as a stellular tribulation’s, then no one would be able to survive interfering with the tribulation.

The headmaster was walking through the path of the mortal world. Every time he took a step through the red dust, his demeanor took on more and more of the mortal world’s characteristics.

Finally, he came to a stop at the bottom of the Heavens Sect’s Stairway to Heaven. There, all the rainbows of memories moved towards Shao Chen. From a distance, it looked as though the mortal world was bowing to the man.

The ripples spread out further and further, until it encompassed the entire Frostwave Weave. The mortal world spread out, and rainbows of memories rose up and bowed down. It was a shocking sight.

Kui Luo gritted his teeth and forced himself to his feet. He cleaned the blood from his mouth. He finally broke through.

With one more Progenitor, the Heavens Sect could hold out for a bit longer.

Shan Pu and Shan Fangyi glanced at each other in shock. Was this a cultivator from the Origin Universe? This sort of breakthrough was unheard of. There were so many possibilities. It was no wonder why this universe had once been the true peak of human power. Compared to the rigidity of the Cyclic Universe’s Three Sovereigns and Nine Sages, the Origin Universe was far stronger.

The ripples continued out from Frostwave Weave and enveloped the entire Outerverse, and then they crossed the Astral River and entered the Innerverse.

This was a Progenitor’s tribulation that would shock the entire Fifth Mainland.

Shao Chen’s breakthrough required him to walk through the endless mortal world. His tribulation was so pervasive that, for a moment, the entire battle stopped.

…

At the Cyclic Universe, in the Great Sovereign’s Tea Ceremony, Lu Yin had no intention of fighting against Sovereign Shao Yin. He simply wanted to return to the Heavens Sect.

He had assumed that, with Lightstream’s ability to reverse time and the Wordless Heavenly Book’s ability to block sequence particle-level attacks, no one would be able to stop him from leaving.

However, Lu Yin had forgotten about one person: True God.

Lu Yin’s Semi-Progenitor tribulation had shocked the Sixverse Association, the Seven Skygods, and even the True God himself.

Too many bizarre things had taken place during Lu Yin's Semi-Progenitor tribulation. There had been things that were completely out of reach for Semi-Progenitors, and even Progenitor-level experts might not qualify to encounter such things. Furthermore, Lu Yin had brought out something that even True God or the Great Sovereign were interested in.

Once Lu Yin’s tribulation finished, the True God had immediately enveloped the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths with his divine energy so that no one could leave.

Oddly enough, the Seven Skygods, who had previously been determined to kill Lu Yin, did not try to attack him after his stellular tribulation even once.

Lu Yin had no idea if the Seven Skygods still wanted to kill him, nor did he know that he had stunned True God with his tribulation. Instead, Lu Yin only knew that he was unable to leave the battlefield.

Divine energy permeated the void, and Heaven's Sight revealed an endless amount of sequence particles. While Lu Yin could create an isolated region of the universe within which he could tear the void apart, it was very difficult for him to find the opportunity to do so.

As long as True God did not want Lu Yin to leave, it would be impossible for him to do so.

The Great Sovereign had no intention of helping Lu Yin to leave. After all, Lu Yin possessed impressive combat strength.

"You want to escape? Let's see just where you can run to!" Sovereign Shao Yin placed all five of his fingers together as he faced Lu Yin from the distance. Within the Extreme Yin City, rot sequence particles spread out and attempted to rot Lu Yin.

The sequence particles assaulting Lu Yin at this moment were as threatening as the lightning that had tempered his body during the tribulation—both were deadly threats. Even if his body had been strengthened to the point where he had a slight resistance to sequence particles, it was still impossible for him to endure Sovereign Shao Yin’s attacks.

Overcoming his Semi-Progenitor tribulation had greatly increased Lu Yin's combat power. Put crudely, he would no longer struggle in a one-on-one fight against Bai Wangyuan. Even if Lu Yin faced off against Old Mo, he was certain that he could at least escape, even if his chances of victory were practically zero.

Controlling the laws of the universe with sequence particles was a qualitative change in power. Lu Yin could escape from such strength without much difficulty, but how was he supposed to defeat a Sequence Progenitor?

The only possibility was Evernight.

Evernight had managed to isolate Old Mo from his sequence particles, which meant that it should also be able to isolate Sovereign Shao Yin from his sequence particles. As long as Lu Yin could draw the Sovereign into Evernight, where he was deprived of his sequence particles, Lu Yin was utterly confident that he could kill Sovereign Shao Yin.

It was true that Lu Yin was unable to defeat Sovereign Shao Yin at the current moment, but it was similarly improbable that Sovereign Shao Yin could defeat Lu Yin. Lightstream’s ability to reverse time, as well as the Wordless Heavenly Book's ability to block sequence particles gave Lu Yin all the leverage that he needed to fight against someone of Sovereign Shao Yin’s strength.

Before becoming a Semi-Progenitor, Lu Yin had been unable to move around in the Extreme Yin City, and he had had to team up with Bai Xian'er to escape from that desperate situation. At present, Lu Yin was certain that he could protect himself even in the Extreme Yin City. If Sovereign Shao Yin was slightly careless, Lu Yin might even be able to transform his once-certain defeat into victory. His breakthrough into the Semi-Progenitor realm had granted him the slightest chance of victory.

However, this only applied to someone like Sovereign Shao Yin. As for someone like Corpse God, Lu Yin had no desire to even touch them. Sovereign Shao Yin could not compare to the Seven Skygods at all.

In the same manner as how Lu Yin could just barely survive against Sovereign Shao Yin, the Sovereign would just barely be able to survive against the Seven Skygods. He might barely survive, but he would never win.

The gap was absolutely massive.

Lu Yin took out his wireless jincan while evading the onslaught of sequence particles. As long as the battle at the Heavens Sect slowed in the slightest, he would be able to receive some news.

Ancestor, please come back as soon as possible!

…

In the Heavens Sect, the memory rainbows spread across the entire Outerverse. Every living creature—human, astral beast, and even the androids of the Technocracy—gave off a memory rainbow. It was a beautiful and unbelievable sight.

It was something that had never appeared in the Outerverse before.

The endless mortal world was paying homage to Shao Chen, and the headmaster underwent a complete transformation. His new aura announced to everyone that his breakthrough had succeeded.

However, no one knew just what sort of breakthrough Shao Chen had undergone. Was he a Progenitor now? Something else? No one could say.

The Chiliagonist immediately attacked. Regardless of whether the headmaster was a Progenitor, he needed to die. He was walking down an unprecedented path, and even though it might be a dead end, it could also lead to a path of unprecedented power.

Regardless, humanity could not be allowed to have such a person.

What Aeternus feared the most was not the rise of a powerhouse, but rather the birth of a creator.

The headmaster glanced back. He was assaulted by consciousness, but he remained firm. "Your path has truly been difficult. You wish to impose suffering on others, but you have never truly experienced their suffering. I will allow you to experience it now."

With that, Shao Chen threw out a palm strike.

The Chiliagonist instinctively tried to dodge, but the headmaster was not attacking the Chiliagonist, but rather his mortal world, which was represented by the rainbow of memories formed from the Chiliagonist’s past.

The headmaster did not wield the power of time, and he was similarly unable to reverse time. However, he could force the Chiliagonist to experience others’ lives in the same way that Shao Chen had been refined by the mortal world.

The Chiliagonist’s pupils shrank, and his eyes lost focus. At this moment, his entire demeanor changed. He was experiencing other people’s lives and their suffering and pain.

This was a pain that far exceeded the agony of physical pain.

The Chiliagonist had joined Aeternus because his life had been too painful to the point where he had been unable to bear it. He had therefore severed his humanity, thinking that, as long as he was not a human being, he would have no emotions.

However, indifference, selfishness, and numbness were also emotions. And inevitably, people with those outlooks could change as well.

The Chiliagonist clutched his head while wailing. He looked up at the headmaster with bloodshot eyes. "What have you done? Get rid of it! I don't want this pain! I don't want to suffer!"

The headmaster shook his head. "Completely pathetic."

"You are seeking death!" The Chiliagonist raised his hands to lash out at the headmaster.

From the other direction, a shadow appeared as the camphor bug fell towards Shao Chen.

Ancestor Tortoise appeared from the side, slamming into the camphor bug.

On the bug’s back, the black-armored man jumped down, his mace heavily falling upon Ancestor Tortoise’s shell. Compared to Ancestor Tortoise, the man was so small that he might as well be a mote of dust drifting about a tree.

However, the black mace started to grow larger and larger. In an instant, it surpassed the size of both the camphor bug and Ancestor Tortoise, nearly reaching the size of the Heavens Sect itself as it slammed down upon Ancestor Tortoise.

The members of the Mavis family watched in horror as the mace fell. This weapon had grown even bigger than Ancestor Tortoise.

Boom!

There was a deafening noise as Ancestor Tortoise was smashed back. It instantly retracted its head.

The black-armored man with the massive mace snorted contemptuously. "Just wait for your love tap! I have to deal with that old thing that created a new path of cultivation first. Such people cannot be allowed to live."

The mace shrank back down, and the man turned to attack the headmaster with the mace.

Halfway through the man’s swing, Big Sis suddenly appeared with her Thundering Hammer battle technique, which she smashed against the mace.

There was another bang, and both people retreated in unison.

"I am a captain of the True God Guard, Chong Gui. The fact that you can match my blow means that you deserve to be acknowledged. Tell me your name!" the black-armored man yelled.

Big Sis sneered. "Your mother."

"True. If you can beat me, you can become my mother!" Chong Gui answered with a laugh, completely ignoring the fact that he had just been insulted. His mace rose up to attack again.

Big Sis retaliated with Thundering Hammer.

The two mighty attacks collided.

Chong Gui grew excited. "You are not even a Progenitor, and yet you can match my blows! This is fascinating! Come on, come on, come on! This is a collision of love!"

Big Sis was disgusted, but she was also wary of her opponent. He was extremely difficult to deal with, as every one of his attacks contained a strange force.

She had been in seclusion, preparing to break through to become a Progenitor, but she had been abruptly disturbed by this battle. At this moment, she realized that it would have been much better if she had finished her breakthrough. She suspected that none of these captains of the True God Guard were simple opponents. On top of that…

She glanced at a distant point in space. A powerful enemy was hiding there.

As Big Sis looked over, Old Mo revealed himself. "Lu Buzheng, you little Lu brat! You need to pay back all that you owe me!"
