Star Odyssey Chapter 3217: Limits Of Power

Chapter 3217: Limits Of Power

The Origin Progenitor crouched low beneath the Immemorial Citadel. He clenched his jaw, holding countless sequence strings between his teeth.

At this moment, those sequence strings were all vibrating, which caught him off guard.

Mister Mu arrived. "Hold tight. That kid is breaking through to the Progenitor realm, and it’s creating a huge commotion. Even the Immemorial Citadel is being affected."

The Origin Progenitor chuckled. "It's not that big a deal. He's just trying to create some more s.p.a.ce to survive in. During my breakthrough, there was a much bigger commotion. Do you think the various species came to fight me? No! All of them were too scared of me. Even the Boundary Guardians were frightened."

Mister Mu calmly replied, "Stop boasting. This breakthrough is only for one of his inner worlds, and he still has three more. That huge commotion that you stirred up wasn't during your Progenitor breakthrough, was it? Do you think I’m ignorant? That happened during your breakthrough to the Origin realm."

"It was when I became a Progenitor. You're underestimating me."

"No, it was when you became an Ortuser. I'm absolutely certain."

"Old Mu, accepting Pillar as your disciple is the only thing in your life that you can brag about. Aside from him, you're worthless."

"Go ahead and insult me all you want, but I'm not changing my words. Endure. It's almost time."

Right as they were about to collide, a familiar sight appeared; it was the Sixth Mainland.

The Origin Universe also appeared. Lu Yin had been born in the Origin Universe, so if he were to create a new parallel universe, the first one that would be pushed aside was the Origin Universe.

Both the Sixth Mainland and the Fifth Mainland were ready to crush Lu Yin.

Lu Yin took a deep breath. He had already known that his Progenitor’s breakthrough would be difficult, but this still exceeded his expectations.

Who else had ever needed to withstand the suppression of numerous parallel universes to overcome their breakthrough and become a Progenitor? No one. Lu Yin had never heard of such a thing before.

Lu Yuan, Hongyan Mavis, Wu Tian, and Garan Zhiluo were all stunned. They were among humanity’s strongest experts as the Three Realms and Six Daos, and they all had ama.s.sed vast experience, but none of them had ever encountered such a phenomenon, aside from their master. He was the only one who had ever produced a similar phenomenon during a breakthrough. He had caused the entire megaverse and countless parallel universes to tremble in fear. That commotion had been much greater than what Lu Yin was currently inducing, but that was because it had happened during their master’s breakthrough to the Origin realm. His tribulation had disrupted the entire megaverse’s sequence particles. But right now, Lu Yin was just challenging his Progenitor breakthrough.

"Little Seven," Lu Yuan called out, worried.

Lu Tianyi, Qing Ping, Mu Ke, Jiang Feng, and many others looked at him with similar concern. This breakthrough’s tribulation was so large that none of them knew how to deal with it.

Bai Xian'er looked up at the sky with calm eyes.

The Divine Eagle and Python Ancestor both let out cries, seemingly worried.

Lu Yin clenched a fist. Since he had triggered this tribulation by trying to breakthrough with Dust World, he would need to use Dust World to overcome this.

He closed his eyes.

The void in the Second Scourge continued to split apart, the fissures coming together until they formed a black river that appeared to flow backward. This was not a real river, but rather the illusion of one formed by countless spatial tears that had merged together.

More and more spatial tears opened as the river edged closer and closer to Lu Yin.

From a distance, it looked as though Lu Yin was trapped inside a black jar that was about to close.

Lu Yin’s eyes suddenly snapped open, and his Dust World appeared above him, surrounded by the six pieces of Primaldust. He clasped his hands behind his back and stared at the Origin Universe. He spoke with an aura of transcendence, "I am the Dao Monarch of the Heavens Sect. I carry the will of the people and accept the prayers of all creatures. �

"Today, I vow that I, for the sake of humanity, will establish a foothold in this megaverse.

"I, for the sake of humanity, will protect all creatures in this universe, no matter if they are human or other.

"In the megaverse, among the countless races, humanity shall rise above all in wisdom.”

The parallel universes all trembled and roared, and the countless spatial tears flashed non-stop.

"Fifth Mainland, will you acknowledge my name?"

The Fifth Mainland trembled.

"Sixth Mainland, will you acknowledge my name?"

The Sixth Mainland trembled.

"Origin Universe, will you acknowledge my name? I am Lu Yin, Dao Monarch of the Heavens Sect."

In the Origin Universe, countless people looked up, and they all saw Lu Yin. Everyone was able to see him. That’s the Dao Monarch, the Dao Monarch…

"I will lead humanity to invincibility. Beneath this sky, in this megaverse, in this reality, who will dare oppose us?

"No matter what path I take, humanity will always be my first priority. I, Lu Yin, will always be right, and the path I tread will lead to success. Am I wrong?"

There was a brief silence in the Origin Universe, followed by a thunderous roar, "Yes, the Dao Monarch is right! The Dao Monarch's path is true! It will succeed. Who dares to oppose the Dao Monarch?"

"The Dao Monarch's path is true!"

"The Dao Monarch is invincible and leads humanity!"

"The Dao Monarch is invincible!"

"The Dao Monarch is invincible!"

...

Countless voices converged into a torrent of sound that ran through the Origin Universe, shaking the Fifth and Sixth Mainlands. Everyone in the universe was shouting wildly, and soon, countless parallel universes that were part of the Sixverse a.s.sociation and even outsider universes joined them.

Lu Yin stood in the sky, countless voices swirling around him. He was listening to them again, but this time, the voices were for him. This was the true meaning of "prayers of all creatures."

The prayers of all creatures did not only mean listening to the desires of all creatures, but also disseminating the desires of an individual to all creatures.

There were no absolutes in the megaverse. Only living creatures were able to create limits.

The countless prayers melded into a surge of force that pushed the Origin Universe into its neighboring parallel universes, and dozens of parallel universes that were part of the Sixverse a.s.sociation also appeared. They slammed into the various parallel universes that sought to crush Lu Yin as well.

The entire sky above the Second Scourge shattered. Lu Yin stood in the air like a deity, without even needing to lift a finger. No matter who stepped forward, none could block his path. The path he walked was the correct one.

From the top of the black Mother Tree, True G.o.d's expression fell. As he stared at Lu Yin in the midst of his tribulation, an unprecedented bloodl.u.s.t appeared in True G.o.d’s eyes.

The boy could be allowed to have extraordinary talent, hold onto a mirebound artifact, and even reestablish the Heavens Sect and lead it back to its former glory. True G.o.d could tolerate all of those things, but at this moment, he saw something that he could not allow.

Lu Yin had gained the support of countless individuals. It could even be said that he was supported by the entire human race.

It was impossible to say just how powerful such support could be.

The higher one's cultivation, the better they understood how terrifying this power could be.

It was at this moment that Lu Yin presented a greater threat than anyone else True G.o.d had ever known, including even the Origin Progenitor.

Far away, Tian Ci's expression grew even darker. He wanted to bring his people into this megaverse and replace the indigenous humans here. As he observed Lu Yin’s breakthrough, Tian Ci saw his hope slipping further away.

A single person had received the support of the entire human race. Just what sort of terrifying power was that?

This power had helped Lu Yin by overcoming his tribulation for him, and it could also allow him to ascend to unprecedented heights.

This was the support of an entire species.

Bai Xian'er let out a breath. They were too late. She had not been able to stop this from happening. Lu Yin had broken through and become a Progenitor. How powerful would he become now? Not even Bai Xian'er could begin to guess.

All she could hope was that, as a newly ascended Progenitor, Lu Yin had not yet achieved a realm of power that was beyond her. Otherwise, who would be able to stop him?

Up in the sky, Lu Yin spread his arms open wide, and the numerous parallel universes that had tried to crush him all vanished. The Scourge returned to normal.

His Dust World had successfully transformed.

Dust World disappeared, and the first piece of Primaldust that Lu Yin had been given by the Origin Progenitor, as well as the other five pieces, all fell upon the landma.s.s in Lu Yin’s inner universe. One day, all six pieces of Primaldust would be returned to the Origin Progenitor. They were his weapons.

At this moment, a barely noticeable dot had appeared on Lu Yin's brow. This dot was his own Dust World.

Dust World had transformed from an inner world into a Progenitor’s world. It held the voices of countless creatures; it held their prayers and a spark of vitality. At this moment, Dust World was truly a Progenitor’s world.

Lu Yin was finally a Progenitor.

While this breakthrough was only for one of his inner worlds, that did not change the fact that Lu Yin was now a true Progenitor.

He had finally stepped into the realm of peak powerhouses.

The Divine Eagle and Python Ancestor both suddenly shot towards Lu Yin.

As countless eyes stared on in astonishment, Lu Yin found the Divine Eagle perched on his shoulder and Python Ancestor coiled around his waist. This was completely unexpected. The two beasts must have mistaken Lu Yin for the Origin Progenitor.

Hongyan Mavis's eyes flushed red. "Master, Master."

Ancient G.o.d's body trembled. Master…

At this moment, Lu Yin looked like the Origin Progenitor, uncannily so. Many were reminded of the ancient past, and they could even see the brilliance of that era.

But the illusion only lasted for a moment.

The Divine Eagle and Python Ancestor stared blankly at Lu Yin's face, and their expressions suddenly changed. There was no hesitation as they both left. They had finally realized that it was Lu Yin and not the Origin Progenitor. The man was an impostor.

Hongyan Mavis and several others snapped back to reality. Lu Yin was still Lu Yin. He was not the Origin Progenitor.

They missed their master.

Lu Yin looked down, and his eyes locked onto Bai Xian'er’s. "Now, it’s time for round two."

With that, he stretched his hand out towards Bai Xian'er, and a cylindrical ma.s.s of soil appeared in the sky. It was only as wide as a palm, and it shot towards the woman like a spear.

Bai Xian'er pointed a finger to intercept the attack, but her expression quickly changed. She contorted her body as quickly as possible, but the column of dirt still tore through her wrist before continuing down to the ground.

At that moment, Bai Xian'er found that it was impossible for her to stop the soil.

Lu Yin's expression was glacial as he curled his fingers. More and more columns of soil appeared in the sky, only to rain down on Bai Xian'er like a storm.

Bai Xian'er used her sequence particles and learned the trajectories of the cylinders of soil. She could see the dirt’s vessels, and breaking them caused the soil to shatter.

However, her features twisted once again, as she discovered that she was only able to shatter a few attacks. Most of Lu Yin’s columns of soil continued unimpeded.

She stood in place as the soil pierced her body, one column after another, each one continuing down into the ground.

Bai Xian'er fully regenerated, but it took more effort than earlier in the battle. In fact, her face looked as pale as death.

Lu Yin stared down at the woman. "How many more times can you use that method to recover?"

His arm rose up, and a shocking scene unfolded.

The entire sky of the Second Scourge became speckled with black flecks. Each dot was a bit of soil. Each one was a destructive column of soil that even Bai Xian'er feared. The sight of so many attacks left her dazed.

Lu Yin swung his arm down, and countless columns of soil rained down to bombard the entire Second Scourge. He was no longer just aiming at Bai Xian'er, but at all the Aeternals who were fighting against his Heavens Sect, as well as the Boundary Guardians.

The Ortusers were immune to sequence particles, but Lu Yin was not attacking with any laws of the universe. This was nothing more than the pure power of a Progenitor.

Just how strong could a Progenitor become? At one point in time, Lu Yin believed that Xia Shenji had reached the peak of what a Progenitor could be. With his abilities like his Shenwu World, Graduation, and his Nine Clones Secret Technique, Xia Shenji had seemed practically invincible. Lu Yin had genuinely thought that Xia Shenji could not be much weaker than even Progenitor Chen.

However, as Lu Yin's cultivation had advanced and his perspective expanded, he had gradually come to understand what Sequence Progenitors were.

Even then, Xia Shenji had still been regarded as a peak Progenitor beneath the realm of sequence powerhouses. The man had not touched that level himself, but he was nearly impossible for anyone who was not a sequence powerhouse to defeat.

However, Lu Yin had completely redefined the limits of what a Progenitor’s power could be.
