Everyone in the Allsense Megaverse looked up to see space shatter and collapse. Seeing that they were about to be crushed filled them with despair and horror, leaving many stupefied.
They were not afraid of death. After all, they had chosen to fight in a war between civilizations, but this sight was beyond courage. They were flooded with the instinctive despair of life facing annihilation.
Luo Yan and Hui Can were both present, focused solely on Mo Bai to ensure that she could not flee. At this point, Mo Bai had no intention of running. After all, there was nowhere to go.
If her master won, she would live. If her master lost—well, that was simply impossible. Her master could not lose.
Master Qing Cao’s expression was grave. Lu Yin, what are you trying to do? Will you really allow everyone here to die?
Universes popped and cracked as tears in the void fell, ripping apart universes. The ground caved in, the entire sky burned, and lightning fell in sheets. Everything was devoured by the rips in the void.
Suddenly, Lu Yin merged with the will of the megaverse again, accepting all of the pressure bearing down on the Allsense Megaverse onto himself. In an instant, his body returned to normal with Extremes Must Be Reversed, and then he released a Willforce Wave. A hand rose and pointed at the green stalk as a dark ripple shot out from a fingertip.
That dark ripple replaced the sky, becoming the only color in the Aevum Inch as it pressed down on the endless darkness and filled everyone’s sight.
In a blink, all of the pressure vanished. All that remained was the dark ripple.
At the same time, the green stalk released a green beam to meet the dark ripple.
Whoosh.
Then, there was silence, as both light and sound alike were swallowed by the Aevum Inch.
The only thing that Master Qing Cao and the others saw was the Aevum Inch warp, followed by a vast ripple spreading out, shattering everything nearby as it expanded out of sight.
The darkness and green alternated and clashed head-on.
At that moment, Lu Yin had actually blocked an attack from the Immortal Lord.
No one had expected Lu Yin to be able to go so far.
Such a blow could erase an ordinary Immortal like Ku Deng. Only top experts, such as Greater Sancti Awe Gate and Blood Tower could fight back against such an attack, and even they might not come out unscathed.
And yet Lu Yin had taken it directly.
Not only were Green Lotus and the rest baffled, but the Immortal Lord was even more confused.
Is an Aberrant capable of doing this much?
Blood appeared on Lu Yin’s lips as the Allsense Megaverse trembled. This was his Willforce Wave.
The pressure that reached the limit of an entire megaverse was transformed into a counterforce through Extremes Must Be Reversed and then released while Lu Yin was merged with the megaverse. So far, this was the strongest attack that Lu Yin was capable of unleashing. It was not even possible through his own strength, as it originated from the damage that the Immortal Lord had wreaked on the Allsense Megaverse.
The greater the Immortal Lord’s attack, the stronger the Willforce Wave that Lu Yin could unleash.
Had the Immortal Lord targeted Lu Yin alone and not the megaverse, the Willforce Wave would have been useless.
Fortunately, Lu Yin had taken the right gamble.
With Luo Chan in peril, the Immortal Lord had sought to destroy everything. It was that exact mindset that had allowed him to use the Willforce Wave.
It had allowed Lu Yin to release a mythical attack.
Before becoming an Immortal, he might never reproduce such a blow, but even just doing so once was already enough.
It was enough because it had cowed the Immortal Lord.
The Immortal Lord truly was badly shaken. Even Master Qing Cao was stunned, and he stared at Lu Yin in disbelief. Is this man a monster? How could he release such a blow?
For that moment, everyone fell silent.
Even the Immortal Lord was struck speechless.
While they had not lost the exchange, the fact that Lu Yin had successfully blocked the Immortal Lord’s blow was victory enough.
Lu Yin stared at the Immortal Lord, a smile on his lips. “Today, I’ll take not only Luo Chan, but also you. I’ll see what you truly are.”
He stretched out a hand, and the Heavenly Karmic Macrocosm poured down endless karma. Vast streams of karma moved like arms as they formed a ring, and the darkness was illuminated by karma.
This was the second time that Lu Yin had illuminated the Aevum Inch.
Before, he had done so with that dark ripple, but this time, he was doing so with karma.
Karma replaced the cosmos and the darkness. It was as if all of reality had been exchanged and then gathered at his fingertip. “The Thousand Faces of Karma: Karmic Heavenwheel.”
An unimaginable, majestic power pressed down upon every heart, Master Qing Cao’s included.
When he looked at Lu Yin, it was as though he was seeing Greater Sancte Green Lotus.
At that moment, Qing Cao could not tell if Lu Yin or Green Lotus was releasing the attack.
The Karmic Heavenwheel made even Qing Cao shudder. He felt a chill that shot straight between his brows.
The green stalk vanished. The Immortal Lord... had fled.
Staring out at the emptiness before him, Lu Yin calmly dispersed the karma. This outcome might have been expected, but it was also a bit unexpected.
The Immortal Lord was terrifyingly powerful. Their pressure had seemed capable of crushing the entire Aevum Inch. Lu Yin had no doubt that the Immortal Lord possessed an unseen world comparable to the size and scale of the Heavenly Karmic Macrocosm.
It was foolish to fight against such a master without being confident of victory, or at least being certain that defeat was not possible. If not, a grim fate would be a certain outcome.
Step by step. That was the way to face such an opponent.
First, Master Qing Cao had attacked. An Immortal had stood up to show the Immortal Lord that humanity had more Immortals than what the Nest civilization was aware of. Next, Lu Yin had unleashed an attack capable of shocking even the Immortal Lord. Finally, he had wielded the Heavenly Karmic Macrocosm in a bid to truly intimidate the enemy Immortal.
Lu Yin was all too familiar with how a weak individual’s schemes could leave the powerful wary, as he had frequently used them over the years. In contrast, Green Lotus was far less versed in such schemes. It was possible that the man had stood at the top for too long, which might explain why he had urged Lu Yin to strike too soon.
Had Lu Yin opened with the Karmic Heavenwheel, he might still be engaged in battle with the Immortal Lord. They would have likely risked everything in order to seize Lu Yin and Master Qing Cao in a bid to trade them for Luo Chan. On the other hand, after Lu Yin blocked their attack, an Immortal had stood at his side and the Heavenly Karmic Macrocosm had loomed above, the Immortal Lord had no longer been able to read the board.
