Star Odyssey

Chapter 1843: Wu Tian’s Legacy

Given what had happened, Lu Yin became incredibly curious about the place that he had been taken to after being kidnapped. It was clear that Xia Ji did not want Lu Yin to know about that place, and it definitely had something to do with his clone, which was why Lu Yin could not be allowed to know about it.

Lu Yin remembered what he had seen in that place. So, he drew some pictures and decided to have a divination done on them after he reunited with the Starsibyl Sect. When he figured out where that place was, he might be able to deduce where Xia Ji’s clone was located, as well as the clone’s identity.

Lu Yin lowered his gadget and looked around. Then, he stood and stretched his neck before leaping off the meteorite and entering the true universe. He started searching for people, and he intended to simply find the strongest person around.

There were still some places in the universe where gadgets could not determine a person’s location.

Rain fell from the sky. Lu Yin was standing on a remote island, staring at the rain up ahead of him. Was that really rain?

There were countless delicate lines falling down, and each one absorbed star energy from the nearby area. After a moment, the lines would shatter and release raindrops that fell down to the sea. Every so often, the thin lines would fall all the way to the sea before shattering, and each burst in the sea killed many fish.

This was the first time that Lu Yin was seeing such an odd thing, and only one place popped into mind: the Cosmic Sea. That was only place that had such odd weather phenomena.

After confirming that he was in the Cosmic Sea, Lu Yin planned to get in touch with Big Sis and the others in her mercenary crew.

Despite Lu Yin’s impressive strength, the universe was vast, and he had no idea what he might encounter. Even if Lu Yin was confident that he could get through the Cosmic Sea, it would take him a long time to do so. So, it was better to reunite with Big Sis and ask her people for a route out of the Cosmic Sea, or even to ask them to just take him out. There was no need to trouble Elder Gong and Highsage Grandmaster with this matter, and Lu Yin also wanted to see Big Sis again.

A black dot appeared in the distance, and it started to grow larger. The sight caused Lu Yin's eyes to light up, as it was a warship. It looked massive, and he soon saw that there was someone at the ship’s bow holding the weird rain back. They were clearly no weakling, and they seemed to be an Enlighter.

He lowered his gadget and dismissed his thoughts of calling Big Sis and the others for the time being. He could just meet up with this crew and figure out his location from them.

It did not take long for the warship to arrive at the island and dock.

Judging from the number of rune lines that he could see, Lu Yin could tell that the most powerful person on the warship was only an Enlighter with a power level of a bit more than 300,000. There was no one even close to Lu Yin’s level of strength, so he could easily maintain control of the situation.

However, it was not easy to sail on the Cosmic Sea, so Lu Yin did not intend to immediately show himself.

The warship moored at the island, and the crew started to disembark one by one. "There’s no one on this island."

"There are many islands like this that pop up in the Cosmic Sea every year. Some of them rise up from the sea bed, and those can actually hold a lot of ancient treasures. Let’s search the place."

"Stop dreaming! Do you really think people like us would ever be that lucky?"

"It’s not just dreaming! Make sure that you don’t say anything like that in front of the captain and upset him. Our Arcadian Arrow Crew’s no worse than anyone else, so why can’t we get lucky?"

"Haha, let’s get a drink first and warm up. This weather’s shit."

…

Lu Yin leaned against a stone cliff as he listened to the crew talk. The Arcadian Arrow Crew? He remembered that a few people from this crew had been invited to participate during the Tournament of the Strongest. One of the invitees had not been too powerful, but Lu Yin had heard that one had visited the Sword Sect to make their name known. However, one had been defeated by Liu Shaoqiu and the other by Lu Yin. In the end, neither of the people from the Arcadian Arrow Crew had participated in the tournament.

There were more than just the Four Pirate Crews in the Cosmic Sea, and the Arcadian Arrow Crew was actually ranked quite highly. Lu Yin understood why when he saw that they had an Enlighter with a power level of more than 300,000. This was strong enough to become a commander of one of the regiments of Leon’s Armada.

"Nate, hurry up and use your domain to find out what’s on the island. We don’t want anyone surprising us with an ambush," someone suggested.

A young man nodded and released his domain. He was Nate, the youth who had lost to Liu Shaoqiu in Astral-3. He had been quite arrogant at that time, but he had since matured and become much more subdued.

Nate's domain swept across the island. It covered an impressive area, but even though it passed by Lu Yin, Nate found nothing.

Some time later, the Enlighter who had been standing guard at the ship’s bow left the ship to land on the island. "I'm exhausted from this damn weather! And to think that it was sunny just an hour ago."

"First Mate, has the captain considered it yet? Do you want to join Leon’s Armada? I’ve heard that several other crews have already joined their fleet," someone whispered.

Everyone else around looked over.

The first mate just shrugged. "No idea. Captain didn’t say anything about it to me."

"If you want my opinion, we shouldn’t. Even if our Arcadian Arrow Crew isn’t that strong, we’re still able to stay alive in the Cosmic Sea. As long as we don’t go trying to recruit more crew members, we won’t offend anyone. Even if Leon’s Armada is looking to make trouble, we can just send some tribute," someone muttered.

Many of the other crew members agreed. "It’s better to be on our own."

"Still, I wouldn’t mind joining Leon’s Armada, as that would ensure our safety."

"I agree. It’s better to be protected."

…

The first mate casually roasted some meat as he listened to the crew go back and forth.

At this moment, a man appeared at the ship’s bow, which caused everyone to fall silent. “The captain came out."

"Shh!"

The man jumped down from the ship and moved over next to the first mate. He sat down, grabbed a bit of meat, and began to eat. "What's all this noise about? We’ll just wait to see if Leon’s Armada’s going to make trouble for us. If we can’t avoid it, we’ll join them, but if we can, we’ll continue on our own."

"Captain, have you ever thought about just leaving the Cosmic Sea?" someone suddenly asked, which caused many of the other crew members to start arguing.

"Little Jiuzi, what’s this crap? Leave the Cosmic Sea? This place is the foundation of our Arcadian Arrow Crew!"

"That’s right! We’ll never leave the Cosmic Sea!"

"If we leave the Cosmic Sea, we’ll become nothing. The reason why those different Innerverse powers fear us is because we control some of the routes to the Neoverse. Without that, nobody would pay any attention to us at all."

The captain tossed some bones away and cleaned his mouth. "Cut the crap! It’s up to me, and it’s none of your business, so just eat your meat."

Everyone stopped talking.

Lu Yin was still leaning against the cliff, and he glanced up at the sky. Of the Cosmic Sea’s Four Pirate Crews, only the Soldier Crew and Leon’s Armada were still around. The Soldier Crew was a mysterious group, and few people could even speak to them. Lu Yin had looked into the crew, but he had not found any useful information. No matter what, no outsider could join the Soldier Crew. However, if Leon's Armada really intended to unite the Cosmic Sea, they would eventually have to force the Soldier Crew to join them.

As Lu Yin considered this development, his body flickered, and he suddenly appeared at the captain’s side. Lu Yin grabbed a piece of meat, put it on the fire, and casually started grilling it.

No one noticed a thing for a while.

Many of the crew members were either drinking, bragging, or training, so no one noticed Lu Yin within their numbers until they heard a shout. "Lu Yin?"

The captain who had been sitting beside Lu Yin leaped to his feet, his hair standing on end as he stared at Lu Yin casually roasting some meat. The captain looked like he was staring at a ghost. When had Lu Yin appeared?

The first mate and the rest of the crew all stared in disbelief. Why was Lu Yin with them?

Lu Yin kept cooking his food. "Sorry, I was just passing by."

He looked at the captain and offered a smile. "I didn't mean to startle you."

Bullshit! I thought I was looking at a ghost! The captain internally swore, but he said nothing aloud. He was familiar with Leon’s Armada, the Great Eastern Alliance, and Lu Yin, as they were all connected. The captain knew of Lu Yin’s reputation for being ruthless, as well as his absurd power. Rumors claimed that despite being an Enlighter, not even Envoys would stand up to Lu Yin.

"Why is Alliance Leader Lu in the Cosmic Sea?" the captain choked out. Many of the nearby crew members slowly backed as far away from Lu Yin as possible. Fear filled many of their eyes.

Lu Yin set his meat down. "I was passing through and didn’t expect to run into an old acquaintance."

He turned towards Nate. "It’s been a long time."

Nate's eyes flickered, but he had no idea how to respond.

"I remember that you were with someone… Silus? Where’s he?" Lu Yin asked.

Nate's eyes dimmed. "He’s dead. Died when the Sixth Mainland invaded the Cosmic Sea."

Lu Yin nodded, but he did not say anything more. People died during wars. It was expected.

Silence reigned for a bit. The captain wanted to say something, but he had no idea why Lu Yin had approached them.

"Ah, right." Lu Yin suddenly spoke up and looked at the captain. “Please take me to Leon’s Armada. I seem to be lost."

Every single member of the Arcadian Arrow Crew was completely dumbfounded. Lost?

"You’re lost?" Even the captain was caught off guard.

Lu Yin shrugged. "Yeah, I'm lost. But you shouldn't be too far from Leon’s Armada."

"We’re not close," the captain replied.

Lu Yin smiled. "That works too. I can just take in the sights of the Cosmic Sea."

The captain and the first mate glanced at each other. Neither seemed to have any idea how to refuse Lu Yin’s request, and they were also nervous to actually refuse.

It was not long before the Arcadian Arrow Crew set sail in a different direction.

Lu Yin was very curious about the warship. It was made of an odd material that seemed to be a bit slippery and hydrophobic. He gave it a bit of a squeeze, and there was a clicking sound as a bit of the ship shattered.

"Alliance Leader Lu, please be careful!" The captain panicked and quickly shouted for Lu Yin to be more cautious, and the rest of the crew just stared at Lu Yin.

Their warship was their only means of survival in the Cosmic Sea. Without their ship, there would be no Arcadian Arrow Crew.

Lu Yin quickly apologized.

Since Lu Yin had managed to find the Arcadian Arrow Crew, he no longer needed to worry about how he would meet up with Leon’s Armada. After growing bored, Lu Yin started browsing through the network.

Suddenly, he leaped to his feet. How was this possible?

He had stumbled upon a widely distributed post: 'The legend reappears! Wu Tian’s inheritance! Who can defeat me?'

Wu Tian’s inheritance? Lu Yin quickly skimmed through the post, and then he lowered gadget. He really did not know how to feel about this. He had never heard of Wu Tian in any of the Fifth Mainland’s legends, but Wu Tian had been an Ancient Progenitor, just like the God of Death and Destiny. These were legends of legends! Names that not even Envoys may have heard of, let alone common people, and yet he had just read about Wu Tian on a public post on the network.

At first, Lu Yin had thought that the name was just a coincidence, but after reading the post, he realized that this was not the case. The Wu Tian that was mentioned in the post was the same Wu Tian that he had heard of.

Someone had stumbled upon Wu Tian’s inheritance in Burial Garden, and although no one seemed to know who that person was, all of Burial Garden had shaken when that had happened, and that scene had been captured in a video.

A Hunter had managed to record a video, and the moment he saw a stone tablet, the name Wu Tian had mysteriously appeared in his mind.

It was impossible for a Hunter to have heard of Wu Tian before. The moment the words appeared, they had seemed to resonate with heaven and earth. This scene that had played out when the inheritance was acquired made everyone believe that Wu Tian’s inheritance had been obtained by someone in Burial Garden.

Wu Tian’s legend was also dug up and revealed by some scholars who studied ancient records. Even though there were only a few words written down, it was still enough to expose the value of this particular inheritance, as Wu Tian had been someone on the same level as the God of Death.

This matter had made great waves on the network, and countless people had poured into Burial Garden, hoping to be lucky enough to find some sort of inheritance. There were even some people who compared Lu Yin with Wu Tian’s inheritance, as they brought up how Lu Yin had become peerless within his generation after receiving the God of Death’s inheritance. These speculations steeled more and more people’s determination.
