Chapter 2897: Humanity’s Flagbearer
Everyone stared on with wide eyes.
Aside from sequence powerhouses, who else had ever seen sequence particles? Lu Yin was an exception, but no one else was capable of observing them.
At this moment, even people like Wang Wen and others who were not Envoys were able to see the ultimate power of the universe.
Only by mastering sequence particles could one hope to truly have the strength to protect themselves. This was something that was gradually being recognized by everyone in the current era. Just becoming a Progenitor was no longer enough to guarantee security.
"Are those sequence particles? They’re a bit cute." Wang Wen was intrigued.
Kui Luo\'s face twitched. "I have no idea if an old man like me will ever live to be able to use sequence particles."
"Not likely," someone replied.
Kui Luo turned around, ready to curse angrily, only to discover that Lu Qi had made the comment. Kui Luo’s expression turned as ugly as if he had swallowed a fly.
Lu Yin was surprised. "Dad, why are you here?"
Lu Qi continued to stare forwards with his eyes wide open. "Ancestor Tianyi told me that there are sequence particles that you can observe, so I came to see. Xiaoxuan, have you actually developed sequence particles?"
"It wasn’t us, but rather the Transcendent Universe and the Aeternals." Lu Yin then shared all that had happened, and the story completely stunned Lu Qi.
"Senior Hui Wen isn’t dead?"
Lu Yin shrugged. "Probably not."
Lu Qi sighed. "Sure enough, Progenitor Hui deserves his reputation."
Zi Jing spoke up, "Which of you seniors will try? Just as a reminder, I don\'t know what sort of sequence particles these are, and I can’t control which laws of the universe will manifest, so whatever shows up is completely random. If you seniors are not satisfied with what appears, then just use it. There are countless laws of the universe, and if you want to wait for a specific law to appear, then you must understand that it is nearly impossible and be mentally prepared for this."
Arch-Elder Zen stepped forward. "How do we use them?"
Zi Jing replied, "Just touch them, and the sequence particles will cling to whatever touches them."
Surprised, Arch-Elder Zen touched the sequence particles while everyone watched on in expectation. The sequence particles did indeed wrap around Arch-Elder Zen\'s hand in a manner that looked as though they were conscious, ultimately forming a shape that looked like a bracelet that clung to his wrist.
"What does it feel like?" Big Sis was curious.
Arch-Elder Zen replied, "It doesn\'t feel like anything. It feels as though it isn’t even there."
"Go ahead and use it to find out what sort of law they are."
Lu Yin was also quite curious. These sequence particles had been manifested through technology, which meant that they were more of a tool than anything else. Arch-Elder Zen had no way of knowing what law had been manifested just by touching the sequence particles. He needed to discover it for himself.
In the past, sequence particles had always been a symbol of the most powerful peak powerhouses, but they had just become a tool of the Heavens Sect. While they did not have full control over this tool, once they managed to manifest powerful sequence particles, the Heavens Sect’s Progenitors would gain a powerful weapon.
Zi Jing was also very curious about what sort of law Arch-Elder Zen had obtained. In the Transcendent Universe, they had tested the cultivation technology just a few days before Lu Yin arrived. All of the sequence particles had been related to odd laws of the universe, some of which they had not even been able to confirm.
Arch-Elder Zen began testing things.
In order to determine what law he had obtained, he had to first discover the nature of the sequence particles.
As Arch-Elder Zen tested things out, Zi Jing restarted the machine and started to manifest more sequence particles. Each activation of the equipment took a long time, and it was just enough time for Arch-Elder Zen to determine the law of his sequence particles.
A short time later, Lu Yin\'s expression changed, and he left. He went straight to the Heavens Sect’s main hall.
Wu Heng had arrived.
When the Arborean saw Lu Yin, he quickly bowed. "Greetings, Lord Lu."
Lu Yin nodded and waved a hand. "Sit."
Wu Heng took his seat. "Lord Lu, Mr. Daheng has gone to the Endless Frontier to find Luo Shan."
A glint flashed across Lu Yin\'s eyes. "When did he leave?"
"Only a month ago. Mr. Daheng first asked me to go to the Endless Frontier and search for signs of Luo Shan, but a month ago, I learned that Luo Shan had gone to the Transcendent Universe. Shortly after that, Mr. Daheng went to the Endless Frontier. It seems that he was certain of Luo Shan’s whereabouts," Wu Heng reported.
Lu Yin looked away. A month ago? That would have been at the same time as the battle with Shaman God. Luo Shan had escaped during that battle, and the only place that he could have fled to was the Endless Frontier. Mr. Daheng had also gone to the Endless Frontier right after that. Did he want to take advantage of Luo Shan\'s injuries and attack the Monarch?
Wu Heng did not disturb Lu Yin and simply waited quietly.
A short while later, Lu Yin looked up at Wu Heng and gave the man a small smile. "This news is very useful. Well done."
Wu Heng stood up. "It\'s my honor to have helped the Dao Monarch. I wonder what the Dao Monarch’s orders might be? I will do my best to accomplish whatever you need."
"Find a way to locate Mr. Daheng and inform me without him knowing," Lu Yin ordered.
"I understand."
The Arborean showed a great deal more respect towards Lu Yin than he had in the past. Lord Wei had died, and Lu Yin had been present for the death of the ruler of the Transcendent Universe. No one knew exactly what had happened, and speculations were running rampant in the Sixverse Association. There were even some people who claimed that Lu Yin had killed Lord Wei.
Despite the conjectures, people only dared to discuss such things in private, and no one dared to question Lu Yin. This reflected Lu Yin\'s current status. He had the final say in the Sixverse Association. While it was true that the Great Sovereign was in seclusion, even if she were not, there was no doubt that Lu Yin would stand at the apex of the Sixverse Association.
Just what did it mean for someone to have more than a dozen Progenitors under their command? Just the thought gave people shivers.
Lu Yin was the only one in the entire Sixverse Association who would dare to announce that he would conquer the Endless Frontier. In the past, the Sixverse Association had only ever been able to defend the Endless Frontier in the war against Aeternus.
Wu Heng greatly admired Lu Yin, and because of that, he had become more obedient.
Elsewhere, Arch-Elder Zen had figured out what sort of law these sequence particles affected: objects must fall from a high place to a low place. That was the law.
Lu Yin was taken aback, as he was surprised that such a law of the universe even existed. At the same time, he felt that it was only natural. Of course objects should fall from high places. If they went from a low place to a high place, it would not be falling, but rather flying. This had nothing to do with gravity, as even if gravity were reversed, “falling” would still mean falling, and “flying” would still mean flying. The core of this law was the concept of falling, not gravity.
With the law made clear, the next question was how it could be used.
At this juncture, Arch-Elder Zen felt completely lost.
The next person to obtain sequence particles was Monarch Xing. After that, Lu Qi also tried out of curiosity. He did not really care about whether he ever became a Sequence Progenitor. Finally, Shao Chen tried it out. His cultivation was based on experiencing the mortal world, which was different from any path that anyone else had ever taken. He was more than willing to try the various laws of the universe in order to better understand the mortal world of the universe.
On the mountain behind the Heavens Sect, Lu Qi and Lu Yin were sitting across from each other.
"The Heavens Sect and the Daosource Sect were the same sect in the past, but the names actually represented different things." Lu Qi stared off into the distance at the huge jiao and Ancestor Tortoise. "The Daosource Sect is the name that was used internally, and it referred to humanity. This was the Origin Progenitor’s intention. He created stellular energy and the foundation of all human cultivation, as well as the six Mainlands. That was the Daosource Sect, while the Heavens Sect included more than that. It represented the unification of all different races and indicated the invincibility of humanity.”
Lu Yin blinked. "Dad, is this what you wanted to talk about?"
Lu Qi made a face. "Ancestor Tianyi asked me to tell you this. We did not want to tell you about certain matters, as we didn\'t intend to impact your cultivation path, but there are certain things that you need to be aware of."
The man’s expression grew solemn. "Are you aware of the Lu family’s direct line’s visualization method?"
Lu Yin replied, "The Fifth Mainland?"
Lu Qi nodded. "You have been using the branch family’s visualization method of the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant, but have you ever considered using the direct line’s visualization method?"
Lu Yin shrugged. "I’ve already trained with it."
Lu Qi felt confused. "You have?"
Lu Yin replied, "Don\'t worry, Dad. I really have practiced it."
The continent of fatesand in Lu Yin’s chest had become the Fifth Mainland with the visualization method of the direct line of the Lu family. The image of the Fifth Mainland had long been imprinted directly upon Lu Yin\'s heart.
The continent in Lu Yin’s chest had first formed from Destiny’s fatesand, but it had grown endlessly beyond that to form a replica of the Fifth Mainland.
This was something that Lu Yin had only gradually come to understand.
"Since you are already training with that, then there’s no need for me to say anything more about it. However, do you know where the idea of using the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant as a visualization method came from?" Lu Qi asked.
Lu Yin pursed his lips. "Lu Buzheng lived during the Heavens Sect era, and there are a few things that he’s more informed about than even you, Dad. The Immovable Heavenly King Elephant is Ancestor Lu Yuan’s mount."
Lu Qi grew embarrassed. How did this kid already know everything?
Lu Qi had learned from Lu Tianyi that Lu Yin had already conferred a number of gods to his Investiture of the Gods, including even Xia Shenji. That man was a Progenitor who was even Lu Qi’s senior, which left Lu Qi feeling very embarrassed. He remembered when he had conferred Wang Jian and blushed.
"What about the Champions’ Stage? Do you know about that?"
Lu Yin grew puzzled. "The Champions’ Stage? Isn\'t that our family’s innate gift?"
Lu Qi heaved a sigh of relief. Finally, there was something that the kid did not know about. He grew solemn as he spoke. "The Champions’ Stage is not just our Lu family\'s innate gift. What does ‘Champions’ sound like to you?"
Lu Yin\'s eyes flickered. Champion, Champions’ Stage... "Warriors who represent a domain and fight for them?"
A smile spread across Lu Qi\'s face. "On the battlefield, soldiers are given orders, and so are champions, while our Lu family serves as the commanders. That is the true use of the Champions’ Stage. Xiaoxuan, if you want to conquer the Endless Frontier, then it’s time for our Lu family to join the Sixverse Association and take command once again.
"During the Heavens Sect era, our Lu family were known as the Origin Progenitor’s commanders. One person as strong as a nation, one person lording over all. Regardless of the size of a battlefield, our Lu family served as commanders who never fell. The other Mainlands were all destroyed, but the Fifth Mainland will never be destroyed. That is because it is protected by our Lu family.
"Our Lu family not only served as the Origin Progenitor’s commanders, but also as the commanders for all of humanity.
"Our Lu family is the backbone of humanity, the flagbearer that will never fall. Our Lu family will never fall, and thus humanity will never fall.
"From the moment you became the Dao Monarch of the Fifth Mainland, you became the master of our Lu family, Xiaoxuan. Bring the Champions’ Stage back from the long river of time and restore humanity’s past glory."
Lu Yin looked down at the Heavens Sect, determination filling his eyes. He loudly declared, "Send word—in 100 days, the Heavens Sect will formally assign generals for the conquest of the Endless Frontier as we push back the Aeternals.
"All grudges and enmities between the people of the Origin Universe are to be put on hold, and all cultivators are to await further orders.
"For these 100 days, no fighting will be allowed in the Origin Universe. No..."
Orders rang out one after another, and the entire Origin Universe started to churn, and the flurry of activity spread throughout the entire Sixverse Association.
Lu Yin had announced in the Transcendent Universe that he intended to conquer the Endless Frontier. Most people in the Sixverse Association had assumed that this would only involve a few peak powerhouses who would charge out and destroy a few corpse kings. Who had thought that Lu Yin would treat the matter so seriously?
The Great Sovereign and the other most powerful individuals of the Sixverse Association were all in seclusion, but so was the Aeternals’ True God. One of the Seven Skygods had died, and in a very rare twist, the rest were all also in seclusion. The Heavens Sect had reached new heights of power and prosperity. Lu Yin wanted to seize this unique opportunity to increase mankind\'s advantage over the Aeternals. On top of that, he felt that it was imperative that the Heavens Sect also used this opportunity to demonstrate their strength to the Sixverse Association.
