Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed. This was a civilizational weapon. Ni Gui was finally getting serious.
The paper folded into what looked like a mountain that pressed down upon the region, shrouding everything in Lu Yin’s sight as it dropped down to crush him. At the same time, a Heavenly Mud Ghost Claw reached up to grab him from below. Pincered from above and below, the two attacks pressed in upon Lu Yin.
If he were an ordinary Aberrant, he would have never been able to withstand this move. Just the paper mountain civilizational weapon alone would be more than what an ordinary Aberrant could endure.
But Lu Yin was not an ordinary Aberrant.
He raised his arm and stopped the mountain with one hand, easily holding it aloft as Ni Gui stared on in shock. It cried out, “Impossible! How can you withstand the weight of a civilization?”
Lu Yin was not using brute force, as there was no need to; he was using Willforce.
Recording civilizations was not destroying them, and wherever there was a civilization, there would be Willforce. Lu Yin was using the Willforce of the recorded civilization to withstand the weight of the civilization. This was so effortless for him that Ni Gui began to doubt its very existence.
As for the attack from below, Lu Yin casually flicked the Heavenly Mud Ghost Claw away with a wave of his other hand.
That hand then rose, the index finger extending and then falling. Countless strands of Tri-Azure Sword Intent slashed downwards, slicing towards the Mudwater Dominion. They cut at the flowing dominion, aiming at Ni Gui.
It just sneered. “So that’s it. You’re certainly ruthless enough. You were pretending just now, weren’t you? But do you really think that you can fight above your level against an Immortal like me, who hails from a fishing civilization? Little thing, you are far too arrogant. Let’s see just how much you can withstand.”
With that, multiple civilizational weapons that looked like origami shot at Lu Yin. At the same time, Ni Gui itself charged out.
This was not an unfamiliar scene to Lu Yin. He had seen the civilizations recorded by a mud doll before, and he had even had his own image painted, though the mud doll had been too weak to actually paint Lu Yin’s picture. However, Ni Gui was different.
Lu Yin swept through the various civilizational weapons. Willforce canceled out any pressure that they might have placed on him. To Lu Yin, these weapons were no different from ordinary paper, and they might as well have been as light as feathers.
In front of him, Ni Gui rushed for the kill, attacking directly with a Heavenly Mud Ghost Claw.
Above Lu Yin, the Investiture of the Gods blazed with light. Tri-Azure Sword Intent: Hidden Blade formed a river of sword intent.
The river of sword intent was vast and powerful as it surged towards Ni Gui. The Heavenly Mud Ghost Claw was simply shattered by the river.
Ni Gui quickly dodged, but under Lu Yin’s control, the river of sword intent relentlessly pursued the creature. As one of the Mudwater Dominion’s eight elders, Ni Gui was rarely pushed to such a miserable state, but that was primarily due to its civilizational weapons, which had no effect on Lu Yin whatsoever.
It would rather face a true Immortal. Immortals would not dare to directly touch a civilizational weapon, out of fear of increasing their karmic chain from damaging an entire civilization. On the other hand, anyone beneath the Immortal realm should be completely incapable of withstanding the pressure of a civilizational weapon.
Unfortunately, Ni Gui had run into Lu Yin. With just the power of an Aberrant, he was able to ignore the weight of civilizational weapons, transforming Ni Gui’s strongest attack into what looked like a mere illusion. Not even the Heavenly Mud Ghost Claw could stand up to Lu Yin’s physical strength. Every one of its methods had been countered, to the point where Ni Gui felt like it was the one being hunted instead.
Lu Yin split off a portion of his river of sword intent and attacked the Mudwater Dominion itself, tearing it apart and erasing all of the Mudwater Dominion creatures within it. There was no need for him to hold back. These creatures continuously recorded entire civilizations, species, and clans. Any who were recorded were trapped forever within a painting, unable to even move. Such agony was enough to drive anyone mad.
Obscura was not a kind civilization, and neither was the Mudwater Dominion.
In truth, civilizations could only do their best to survive in the Aevum Inch. There was no such thing as morality.
The Nine Odysseys Megaverse also attacked foreign civilizations simply due to their proximity. Such actions were normal.
To other civilizations, humanity was not kind either.
Lu Yin was building a wall in his heart with black and white bricks, and at this moment, his mental state shifted entirely to match the black bricks. His slaughter showed no mercy.
Ni Gui roared, “You’re courting death! I’ll record you and then slowly torture you! I’ll torture you to death!”
More sheets of paper flew out from the Mudwater Dominion, folding into tiny chains that linked together without end. They eventually formed a vast net that dropped down onto Lu Yin: Celestial Weave Net.
Lu Yin raised his hand, ready to eliminate the net with Willforce, only to suddenly sense that something was wrong. He quickly dodged.
Celestial Weave Net continued to expand, and it enveloped him again.
This was not an ordinary civilizational weapon, but rather an Immortal civilizational weapon.
Within the recorded civilizations that formed Celestial Weave Net, there were also some with Immortals. While the Mudwater Dominion’s hallmark was suppressing enemy Immortals with civilizational weapons, the truth was that they also used recorded Immortals.
Ni Gui’s surface seethed endlessly. “Little thing, you’ve forced me, one of the eight elders, to use my killing move. You can be proud as one of the strongest Aberrants in existence. Be good and let me record you now.”
Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed as Celestial Weave Net descended from overhead.
He had more than one way to overcome this attack. At the very least, he could instantly avoid the net by teleporting away.
However, there was no need for that. Ni Gui was simply not strong enough to force Lu Yin to reveal that he could teleport.
