Chapter 263: The Cosmic Sea And The Court Of Seven Names (1/2)

Tang Si’s eyes glinted, and his spear darted forward, shattered the Darkgold Palm, and then pierced straight into Arikar’s abdomen. Blood splattered onto the ground from the spear’s shaft.

Arikar turned pale. How is this possible? How could a Limiteer realm native be so powerful as to be able to shatter Arikar’s Darkgold Palm with a single attack? This native was so strong that he was comparable to the top students from the Astral Combat Academies. At that moment, Arikar remembered a warning he had received from a Blaze Realm elder—Do not underestimate the Shenwu Continent! This continent had been able to defy the entire Darkmist Weave, and even powerful forces from the Innerverse hadn't been able to defeat it. This was a very strong continent.

Splat!

Arikar spat out a mouthful of blood and slowly crumpled to the ground. He was in great pain and had nearly fainted due to the wound in his abdomen.

The Reverent King, also known as Ming Zhaoshu, walked over and coldly looked at Arikar. “Revive him and then bring him to my study once he’s awake.”

“Yes, Your Highness,” Tang Si replied respectfully.

When Lu Yin entered the Shenwu continent, a battle broke out in the Great Yu Empire when a mysterious powerhouse suddenly ambushed Undying Yushan. The battle caused half of the city to be destroyed, and even changed Zenyu Star’s weather, to the point where one of its three rings were slightly fractured. In the end, Undying Yushan was heavily wounded while Huo Qingshan and some of the other Thirteen Imperial Squadrons’ captains were slightly injured as well. Fortunately, there were no fatalities from this battle.

Not long after the battle, Undying Yushan announced that he would be going into seclusion to recover from his injuries and ordered Dorren Yushan, Wendy Yushan, and all of the other remaining members of the Yushan family to return to Zenyu Star.

The Great Yu Empire was thrust into a state of panic and rumors began circulating that Undying Yushan didn’t have long to live and that he would soon be passing his throne down.

Lu Yin was also included among the list of Yushan family members who were summoned; however, he had already entered the Shenwu Continent by that time and didn’t receive the message.

Back in Astral-10, Silver thoughtfully said to himself, “You old fox, this only proves that you are one of the seven. Yu, you cannot escape.”

The Cosmic Sea was formed from very similar elements as the Astral River and was filled with surging liquid energy. But compared to the Astral River, the Cosmic Sea was way larger, and many people believed that the Astral River actually originated from the Cosmic Sea.

If Lu Yin were here, he would have definitely recognized the man as Uncle You Ling.

“Undying Yushan might die after this last battle that took place within the Great Yu Empire. The person who attacked him hasn’t been identified yet,” You Ling muttered in a low voice.

“Do we actually have to investigate this? It must have been someone from the Neohuman Alliance—only they would keep investigating the Court of the Seven Names,” an icy voice responded from the cabin. It was the high pitched voice of a woman.

“Could it be the Daynight clan?” You Ling asked.

“That’s impossible. Little Yin’s actions aren’t enough to cause the Daynight clan to send out a Hunter realm powerhouse. Moreover, they are focused on their expansion into the Outerverse, so they won’t initiate any battles without a serious reason. The Ross Empire’s attack on the Great Yu Empire shouldn’t have been the Daynight clan’s influence either, since they wouldn’t be so nearsighted. Oh right, where is Little Yin?”

“He went to the Shenwu Continent,” You Ling replied.

“It seems that he still hasn’t forgotten his initial mission. We cannot give up on the Great Yu Empire. If he really is one of the Seven, then this is a huge matter. Once we discover the truth behind that issue, we’ll be able to return home.”

You Ling’s eyes gleamed. “Understood, captain.”

In the Shenwu Continent, crowds of people bustled about in the broad streets. Five planets covered the sky above the passersby’s heads while a huge sun radiated warmth, bringing life and energy to the continent.

The monotone chirping of cicadas was enough to cause drowsiness within anyone.

Lu Yin was lying under a tree and helplessly looking at his hand.

The Shenwu Continent had its own ecosystem, which would cause one’s star energy to gradually weaken and their combat ability to slowly decrease. Martial power completely suppressed star energy here, and Lu Yin had been able to feel that from his previous fight with the Explorer. The effect of the star energy suppression was actually quite significant here. If it weren’t for his five-lined battle force, then he would have suffered the same fate as Arikar.

He definitely needed to get some martial crystals as soon as possible.

He wondered how Arikar was faring. Information about Lu Yin would definitely be leaked now that Arikar had been captured by the natives. Lu Yin had immediately used star energy to change his appearance and also decided to assume a false identity. From now on, his name here would be Lu Qi.

Crack crack.

In the distance, a convoy was slowly rolling through the streets. There were quite a few people following it, and apart from some laborers, the rest were mostly soldiers responsible for protecting the convoy.

The animal dragging the carts resembled cows, but they were much larger than any cow Lu Yin had ever seen. They had a gentle look to them, but they were probably quite strong since each of them was dragging a cart covered with white cloth towards the west.

Lu Yin’s eyes gleamed as he hid his aura and tailed the convoy from within the forest.

Half a day later, the convoy stopped when the sun set. “We will reach Taicang City in Qiong Zhou in half a day’s time, so let’s take a ten minute break for now. We’ll continue on after that,” someone from within the convoy ordered.

The group paused to take a break.
