Chapter 4471: Catastrophe Descends

At the very moment that Joy City and Void Mountain went to war, the Human Trio was struck by a terrifying crisis.

Stretching out from one direction of the Trio, a gigantic black plaza crashed through outer space and abruptly appeared outside of the Nine Odysseys Megaverse. It arrived so suddenly that there was no time for humanity to prepare.

The instant the black plaza appeared, the Nine Odysseys Megaverse’s Mother Tree bent and started cracking apart.

Greater Sancte Blood Tower, Greater Sancte Awe Gate, and the other Immortals were all horrified as they stared at the enormous black plaza that held a boundless sea of white bones, as well as the short section of a finger bone that emerged from the void to press down upon the Nine Odysseys Megaverse. They could not believe their eyes. How had it appeared so suddenly?

On the black plaza, a bloodstained figure was hanging upside down. It was Lu Feiyang.

He had been mapping out the star chart in one direction. The moment he saw the black plaza, he had also been seen. Teleportation was not omnipotent. The Lu family had taught their descendants that much, but they could not teach them how to survive such a situation. After all, not even Ancestor Lu Yuan himself could have survived this terror.

Lu Feiyang was dead.

Death's Dominion. This was the ruler of one of the Death Megaverse’s seven Abysses, someone who stood equal to Withered Requiem.

They were the gigantic skeleton that the Immortal that had given birth to Yue Ya’s body of manifested thought had once encountered. The Immortal had tried and failed to escape from the giant that was so large that it looked like they were holding up the cosmos itself.

Lu Yin had seen this gigantic skeleton multiple times in Yue Ya’s manifested thought and through the Stillness left behind in the megaverse that had been reset.

This was the being that Green Lotus had thought to be the Death Megaverse itself, the being that he had lured away by using himself as bait.

This giant’s name was Death's Dominion.

At this moment, the gigantic finger bone pierced the sky of the Nine Odysseys Megaverse. It continued to descend, looking like it was going to pop the entire megaverse like a bubble.

Blood Tower’s eyes bulged with fury as he charged straight upward.

Awe Gate passed through a gate, Awecloud in hand as she thrust the spear forward.

Blood Tower and Awecloud struck the finger bone at the same time. The bone was stopped for a moment, and it even bent slightly. But then, Stillness coiled around it, and with a deafening bang, both Immortals were driven back.

From atop the black plaza, countless skeletons stepped into outer space and charged at the Nine Odysseys Megaverse.

The Tianyuan saw this scene, and from outside Manifest City, Ancestor Lu Yuan saw it as well. The Mirrorlight Art allowed many to see the crisis that had just befallen the Trio, and they immediately turned back.

Lu Hui grabbed Chen Jian, who was the closest to the Nine Odysseys Megaverse, and then turned back to take Mister Mu and the others over as well.

Ba Yue rushed out, slashing at the finger bone with a sword.

Chen Jian clenched his fist and unleashed the Star Fist.

The incomparably gigantic humanoid skeleton leaned down, looking at Ba Yue and Chen Jian. It then murmured something.

Awe Gate turned pale in horror. Not good! “Be careful, that’s Bone Script!”

It was already too late. The bones within both Ba Yue and Chen Jian ripped free of their flesh to emerge. In an instant, two Immortals were as good as dead.

This scene struck countless people in the Nine Odysseys Megaverse like an overwhelming blow. They had never imagined that mighty Immortals could be rendered so utterly helpless.

At the same time, past the Tianyuan, light appeared, arriving in the blink of an eye. It was the Divine Realm’s Divine King, together with Nightflow God.

The Divine King peered at the Nine Odysseys Megaverse. So it is not only us.

Another powerful civilization was also making a move, and it was even a civilization that the Divine Realm had fought before.

The Divine King could sense Death's Dominion’s presence, and Death's Dominion could naturally sense the Divine King’s arrival as well.

Both were peak two-law Immortals, and yet they were attacking the same civilization at the same time. Such a situation was rare.

All of this was because of the Keeper of Balance.

The Tianyuan was also ripped open.

Mister Mu and Chu Songyun simultaneously released their guardian artifacts to forcibly withstand the Divine King’s strike.

The Divine King was surprised. Could these creatures actually withstand its attacks? No wonder. They must have become Immortals through direct breakthroughs.

But that was not enough.

The universe was overturned, countless stars shattered, and the megaverse cracked, trembling on the verge of being reset.

All of this happened in a single instant.

This once-powerful human civilization was teetering on the brink of collapse.

Even Ba Rong was stunned. How had things suddenly reached this point?

Countless people wailed in despair. No one had expected war to arrive so suddenly.

In the Tianyuan, Forgotten Ruins God and Wang Xiaoyu stared up in a daze. This human civilization had clearly climbed step by step, reaching great power, but at this moment, it appeared to be fragile beyond comparison.

A gentle voice came from Skydog’s back. “Lu Yin is very good, exceptional even, but unfortunately, he was born at the wrong time. The glory of the Nine Ramparts left every civilization wary, causing every move of the human civilization to be watched by all living beings.

“He wants to grow and recreate that glory, but that is fundamentally impossible.

“It is time for this to end. Immortality is truly exhausting. Matters that should be simple instead take endless years to clarify. Now that everything is understood, let it end.

“Treat it as a dream. It is time to wake up.”

***

At Void Mountain, Lu Yin was charging forward together with a host of skeleton creatures when his vision suddenly blurred. His true body was being awakened.

In his seclusion grounds behind the Heavens Sect, Lu Yin’s eyes snapped open to see a panicked Long Xi and Xiang Siyu. His heart sank. He instantly teleported to his skeleton clone while its consciousness was still lingering around it before dispersing. He brought it back and merged it with his true body and only then did he look outside the Heavens Sect.

He saw the Divine King suppressing Mister Mu and Chu Songyun’s guardian artifacts and the bones of two Immortals beneath Death's Dominion’s gigantic finger bone tearing free of their own flesh.

Damn it! How did this happen?

He had already known that the Keeper of Balance was plotting something, but he had not expected it to come so quickly.

Obscura’s protection of the Trio had only just ended. Lu Yin had assumed that, if anyone moved against the Trio, it would be Joy City.

He had been careless. The Death Megaverse had seven Abysses, and Joy City was only one of them.

The Abyssal Displacement had provided experts for Joy City, but it could have also provided them for the Abyss attacking the Nine Odysseys Megaverse.

So that’s what happened.

Lu Yin teleported straight to the Nine Odysseys Megaverse. Rather than the Divine King, Death's Dominion had to be stopped first. Otherwise, with their Bone Script, not even humanity’s Immortals would be able to endure, let alone anyone else.

Especially since using Bone Script did not increase one’s karmic chain at all.

Death's Dominion’s voice rang out again. This time, they were targeting Blood Tower and others.

Lu Yin suddenly appeared, releasing the Cosmic Art as his hand rose and his scythe appeared: Extremes Must Be Reversed. With a surge of activeness, he gained a vast amount of Stillness, which he combined with the Stillness that he had devoured in Joy City. Stillness erupted from Lu Yin, spreading throughout the entire Nine Odysseys Megaverse to resist Bone Script.

Death's Dominion turned to stare at Lu Yin in surprise. Stillness? And quite a great amount at that.

Lu Yin leapt up, releasing his Willforce and merging with the megaverse as he threw a palm strike. Countless skeletons were smashed to bits, including Immortal skeletons.

Lu Yin’s Willforce had grown extremely powerful after cultivating in Manifest City.

His Willforced encompassed the entire Trio, merging with them as one palm was thrown at Death's Dominion and another was thrown at the Divine King.

“Qing Cao, go to Vestigium right now! Tell them that I am willing to make a trade!” Lu Yin shouted sharply.

In the Spirit Nidus, Master Qing Cao’s face turned deathly pale as he took out a gate and immediately passed through it.

In the Tianyuan, a voice rose from Skydog’s back. “So you returned? I don’t know where you went, but it doesn’t matter. Everything is about to end, and no one can stop it.

“It is time for us to meet.” As the voice spoke, a jade-white hand rose, and specks of starlight fell, one by one. It was a beautiful sight.

In the Spirit Nidus, Master Qing Cao passed through the gate, yet he was still within the Spirit Nidus.

He stared at the gate in shock. It had failed.

From the Nine Odysseys Megaverse, Lu Yin saw this as well, and his heart dropped. Obscura’s White was cooperating with the Keeper of Balance. Lu Yin immediately threw out the red floating coffin, sending it to Master Qing Cao for him to lie inside, sending his consciousness to Vestigium.

But that failed as well. Not even his consciousness could enter Vestigium.

Obscura’s floating coffins were connected to the gates. With the gates failing, the coffins were similarly useless.

The failure of the gate and red coffin meant that it was impossible to contact Vestigium. Lu Yin’s negotiations had failed before they could even start.

In truth, even if the coffin had worked, it still would not have helped. The members of Obscura moved through gates. Without gates, even if Ba Se wanted to protect the Trio, no one would be able to make the trip in time.

Everything had been anticipated by the Keeper of Balance. For so many years, he had watched human civilization develop, and he understood it even better than Lu Yin himself.

No one could match his schemes or his methods. He had foreseen every single step.

From up above, the gigantic finger came crashing down upon Lu Yin.

Lu Yin’s Willforce palm strike was not enough to drive Death's Dominion back. The blow had only checked the giant for an instant.

The same was true for the Divine King as well. Both Immortals attacking the Trio had merely been halted for a brief moment by the two palm strikes.

Lu Yin no longer had any attention to spare for Master Qing Cao. He looked up at the gigantic bone finger, clenched a fist, and set his stars in motion to unleash the Star Fist.

His fist blasted forward, his flesh withering as he released all of his strength against the finger. At the same time, Stillness surged behind Lu Yin like a tide, endless and unbroken.

With a thunderous bang, the Star Fist directly collided with the finger, causing it to bend.

Using megaverses as stars to create an invincible path—this was the first time that Lu Yin was revealing his Star Fist to a true enemy. This strike was comparable to a tri-color divine energy transformation.

Even Death's Dominion was shaken by the blow, and they let out a deep, booming voice, “The Sixth Rampart’s invincible fist art.”

Lu Yin opened Heaven’s Sight to stare at Death's Dominion. The being was an incomparably gigantic humanoid skeleton. Lu Yin did not know what the skeleton had originally been, only that, at this moment, the skeleton was his human civilization’s greatest enemy.

Death's Dominion stared back at Lu Yin and met the gaze of Heaven’s Sight.

Countless irregular black lines spread out to instantly envelop the skeleton: Crow Immobilization.

Death's Dominion was surprised. “An innate gift of the Ten-Eyed Divine Crow?”

How many powers had this human mastered?

Seizing the opportunity, Lu Yin moved, teleporting away to arrive directly behind Death's Dominion’s head, where another Star Fist blasted out.

Death's Dominion could not move, but the black plaza that rested in their hand released a black light that instantly shrouded the entire skeleton. Lu Yin’s punch failed to break through, only producing ripples.

This punch’s power was comparable to a tri-color divine energy transformation. In terms of pure destructive power, there was still a gap, though only a small one. The two were nearly identical in power, so why could Lu Yin still not break through the black plaza?

The tri-color divine energy transformation had helped him defeat multiple two-law Immortals, including Ni Ren, Ming Yu, and Chang Dou. It was the strongest power that Lu Yin was currently capable of unleashing, and yet not even that level of power could injure Death's Dominion. Lu Yin was immediately overcome by a sense of helplessness.

After all, there was another expert of similar power attacking the Tianyuan.

Was this truly the end of their human civilization?

From the black plaza, a gigantic skeleton violently slammed into Death's Dominion, knocking them out of the range of Crow Immobilization.

Death's Dominion raised a hand to strike Lu Yin. “Human, no matter how many methods you possess, they cannot make up for a gap in absolute strength. Today, this human civilization will surely be destroyed.”

Lu Yin looked up and watched the gigantic skeletal palm descend.

His Karmic Dao suddenly contracted. “If you want to destroy my human civilization, then let’s see if you can pay the price.”

Karma formed a Dao Sword.
