A scene that previously occurred in the Transcendent Universe now played out in the Heavens Sect.
The void warped for a time, and then, with a strange gentle sound, particles started to appear in the void. They were arranged in a curve, and they started to slowly rotate.
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.
