Star Odyssey

Chapter 2900: Green Lights One After The Other

At Lu Yin’s command, all of the guides who had been waiting nearby stepped out to lead the battalions to the Endless Frontier.

The Endless Frontier had previously been made up of sixty-two parallel universes. With the addition of the Three Monarchs Universe, the number had risen to sixty-three, but the massive battle of the Great Sovereign and the other top members of the Sixverse Association had destroyed several universes.

The four battalions split up to push across the Endless Frontier along four different paths.

These routes had been predetermined even before the commanders were appointed. They had also come up with defensive measures and tactics to deal with the Seven Skygods, should they be encountered.

Each of the four commanders was a Sequence Progenitor, which meant that they would not be quickly defeated even if an individual battalion encountered one of the Seven Skygods. If not for this, Lu Yin would have never dared to try to conquer the Endless Frontier.

The appointment of the battalion commanders at the Heavens Sect had shocked the entire Sixverse Association.

A full twenty-five Progenitor-level powerhouses had appeared. In the past, the only time that so many powerhouses had ever appeared was during the Great Sovereign’s Tea Ceremonies, and even then, such numbers were unusual.

Lu Yin's influence had clearly been revealed at this moment.

In the Cyclic Universe, Sovereign Lotus let out a breath, a complicated expression on her face. Lu Yin had casually thrust the decision of whether or not to launch the crusade upon all of the people participating in it. Regardless of whether the crusade was successful, even if the resulting casualties were catastrophic, Lu Yin would not be held responsible at all.

Still, that did not mean that his words were not unreasonable. Humanity did need to seize the initiative and instigate the war against the Aeternals.

The massive battle that the Great Sovereign had led the other most powerful humans on had not been a real declaration of war, but rather an attempt to get revenge.

Lu Yin was truly inciting war.

At the end of this crusade, regardless of victory or defeat, the Heavens Sect's influence would undoubtedly transcend that of the Cyclic Universe. Similarly, Lu Yin's reputation would rise to nearly match the Great Sovereign’s, even if the young man was not even a peak powerhouse yet.

The moment that Lu Yin broke through again and became a peak powerhouse, it was possible that he would take the position of leader and master of all humanity.

While Sovereign Lotus did not want to admit it, she was certain that it would not be long before Lu Yin’s influence would completely eclipse the Great Sovereign's.

How could such a person have appeared?

Sovereign Lotus found it hard to believe that the Aeternals had not made a point to kill Lu Yin. If she had been in their position, she would have ensured Lu Yin’s death no matter what it might cost.

On the Endless Frontier, in Proximity, Sage Bodhi welcomed four guests. They were Shui Chuanxiao, Xu Qing, Wang Wen, and Wei Rong.

The Sage frowned when she looked at the four people. It was normally impossible for Proximity to accept the presence of any outsiders, but Lu Yin had strongly insisted on this, claiming that it was a necessary step for Proximity and the crusade to communicate, which was not something that Sage Bodhi could refuse.

She was not confident that she could fully command the crusade, given the number of peak powerhouses participating.

"There are four battalions and four of you. Did Lord Lu task each of you with keeping an eye on one of the four battalions?" Sage Bodhi asked.

Wei Rong smiled. "We are here to learn from you, Senior Sage Bodhi."

Sage Bodhi looked at Wei Rong. "Get rid of that hypocritical smile."

Despite not knowing much about Wei Rong, the woman’s instincts warned her that the man was extremely conniving.

Wei Rong's smile remained unchanged.

Wang Wen looked around curiously. "Hey, Wendy. It’s been a long time."

Shui Chuanxiao observed the various displays and commented, "So, this is Proximity? What a good place. I’ve only dreamed of being able to operate from such a command center."

Xu Qing calmly stated, "I am responsible for the second battalion."

Wei Rong continued to smile. "I am in charge of the third battalion."

Shui Chuanxiao said, "I am in charge of the first battalion."

Wang Wen shrugged. "In that case, I’ll be responsible for His Royal Chesspiece."

"What's your real purpose here?" Sage Bodhi asked.

The other women in Proximity glanced over at the four people in a questioning manner. No outsider had ever entered Proximity before. The Heavens Sect’s Dao Monarch was arrogant and overbearing.

Wang Wen smiled at the Sage. "We’re looking for spies."

Sage Bodhi nodded. She already had too much to do with the arrival of the four battalions. Since these four people had been sent to Proximity by Lord Lu, then they should be quite capable. "Then I'll leave that to you."

Shui Chuanxiao turned to look at Sage Bodhi. "You are still the commander of this battlefield, Senior."

Sage Bodhi’s eyes flashed. Bullshit!

"There it is!" someone exclaimed. Everyone turned to look at the displays. Simultaneously, green lights had appeared on four different parallel universes in the Endless Frontier. They were the Sky Spider Universe, the Majestic Universe, the Cyan Universe, and the Lilliput Universe. These were the four parallel universes that the four battalions had entered.

The moment the four battalions entered the Endless Frontier, Lu Yin’s crusade had officially begun.

The crusade was not anything new to the people of the Perennial World. They had initially been unwilling to invade the New World, but then Lu Yin had taken the lead and acted as the vanguard. That charge had completely driven the Aeternals from the rear battlefield. The crusade to conquer the Endless Frontier was not the first such campaign that Lu Yin had launched.

Only by knowing oneself and the enemy was it possible to have a chance to defeat that enemy. However, there were also times when being cautious would cause one to lose the courage necessary to win.

Lu Yin arrived in the Lilliput Universe, but unlike when he had first appeared in this universe, he was not alone this time. Instead, he was accompanied by hundreds of thousands of cultivators, most of whom were from the Origin Universe. Many of the people were even part of the Heavens Sect, though a good number of people were from other universes of the Sixverse Association.

Among the cultivators were many with the strength of Explorers, which meant that they were able to freely travel through outer space on their own, but there were also weaker cultivators who relied on universal armor to move through outer space. These people were not on the Endless Frontier to fight in the crusade, but rather to search.

It would not be easy to find any of the Seven Skygods. Even if they were present, it was impossible for anyone to sense them unless they took action.

Fortunately, the development of the sequence particle cultivation technology came with many other innovations. In particular, Zi Jing had developed a new tool. It was not a weapon, but rather a sensor that could disrupt sequence particles. It was essentially a grossly oversimplified version of the sequence particle machine, but instead of manifesting sequence particles, this machine would detect the usage of any sequence particles within a certain range.

The reason why some of the Seven Skygods were hiding on the Endless Frontier was that they had been injured during the most recent battle and needed to recuperate. While recovering, it was likely that they would utilize sequence particles. If they did, that activity would be picked up by the sensors, which would inform the battalion. This was the only way they could hope to find any of the Seven Skygods.

It was certainly not a very efficient method, and it really boiled down to waiting for something to happen, but it was the best option that Lu Yin had been able to find.

The 100 days of preparation had not been in vain. Not only had cultivators gathered to participate in the crusade, but equipment had also been mass-produced, including the sequence particle sensors.

After learning about the sensors, Lu Yin had asked Zi Jing if it might be possible to create a device that could interfere with the laws of the universe within a certain range, and the idea had resonated with her. She was certain that it could be done, but it would take time to develop the technology. She did not know if it was something that could be done quickly, or if it would take a long, long time to develop.

If such a device could be developed, it would be of immense use. The idea that an enemy’s sequence particles could be interfered with, even if for only a moment, would be an incredible advantage. Such a device would be a sequence weapon.

With the sequence particle sensors activated, the fourth battalion descended upon the Lilliput Universe.

Elder Ling Neng and Princess Ling Qi, as well as the other Lilliputs, all stared at the vast host of human cultivators which had just arrived. The sight of such an army was indescribably shocking.

There were a number of cultivators whose strength the Lilliput elder could not even sense, as well as a number who were clearly equal in strength to the elders. Initially, Lu Yin appeared to be leading an infinite army.

As Lu Yin raised his hand and waved it forward, the jiao let out a roar, and Leng Qing’s saber slashed out, nearly severing the universe in two. The fighting on a distant battlefield instantly ceased, as all of the corpse kings were instantly destroyed, even the Semi-Progenitor-level corpse kings. Not a single monster had been able to put up any sort of resistance.

When Lu Yin had purged the Lilliput universe, he had eliminated every last Aeternal in the universe. However, the Aeternals would not abandon any part of the Endless Frontier. So naturally, they had resumed their efforts in the Lilliput Universe, returning.

It was impossible to truly eliminate the Aeternals from any of the parallel universes on the Endless Frontier, including even the Decaying Diablo Universe that belonged to the Merchant Exchange.

"Kill!"

Endless shouts shook the universe, and the Lilliputs were left dumbfounded as they watched the Aeternals be slaughtered across all the battlefields in their universe. When had humanity grown so powerful? They had always held a disadvantage in the past.

Princess Ling Qi was familiar with Lu Yin, so she quickly stepped forward. "Mr. Lu, is it really you? Why are you here?"

Ling Qi did not dare to approach the massive jiao, and she instead shouted from a distance.

Lu Yin quickly suppressed the jiao and then moved over closer to Ling Qi. He smiled at her. "As long as the Aeternals still live, I will come fight them."

The Lilliputian princess was impressed. "Mr. Lu, these people are so powerful. The elder mentioned that some of them are even peak powerhouses. Is that right?"

Lu Yin smiled. "Your Lilliput Universe will quickly be purged. Lead your people away and leave the fighting here to us."

Ling Qi grew excited and bowed low to Lu Yin. "Thank you, Mr. Lu, and thank you to all of your comrades."

It was not a battle, but a slaughter. The jiao roared arrogantly as it looked down on the universe. Very soon, the beast led the fourth battalion to the Gemini Universe.

At nearly the same time, the Sky Spider Universe, the Majestic Universe, and Cyan Universe were all given green lights as well. It was not a matter of purging the universes, but more like a competition to see who could do so first.

In Proximity, Sage Bodhi had never witnessed such a thing before.

She has seen several universes receive green lights, but never had multiple purges occurred so close together with the victories so flawless. Was this the crusade to conquer the Endless Frontier? Such a thing had never been accomplished in the entire history of the Sixverse Association. This was truly an unprecedented gathering of humanity’s strength.

"Senior Sage Bodhi, please send out an order to all the cultivators from the Sixverse Association who are not serving on the Endless Frontier but are present. As soon as any such people encounter one of the crusade’s battalions, they must join the army, and they will not be allowed to refuse for any reason. Any who disobey this order will be punished as spies." Wang Wen suddenly spoke up, addressing Sage Bodhi.

The Sage grew curious. "Cultivators from the Sixverse Association who are not serving on the Endless Frontier?"

Wang Wen looked over at Sage Bodhi. "The Endless Frontier is the greatest battlefield in existence, and it is a place that even people as strong as Progenitors don’t want to visit. Any cultivator from the Sixverse Association who is on the Endless Frontier is naturally serving time on the battlefield, which means that none of them should be present for any other reasons. If they are there, then what is their purpose? Their mere presence on the Endless Frontier is an issue, so please order them to join the crusade so that we can keep an eye on them."

Sage Bodhi replied, "There are always people from the Sixverse Association who volunteer to fight on the Endless Frontier without being ordered to serve on the frontlines. In fact, there are quite a number of such people."

"And that is indeed very admirable. After the crusade is over, I will make sure that such people are rewarded and acknowledged for their sacrifices, but that doesn’t change anything, does it? After all, there are also other possibilities why such people would be present on the Endless Frontier, aren’t there?" Wang Wen's smile never changed.

It was only then that Sage Bodhi realized that this man might be even more insidious than the one named Wei Rong.

Right, Bai Wangyuan and Wang Fan are both on the Endless Frontier, and neither one was sent to serve there. Is Lord Lu pushing for Proximity to send this order out?

Sage Bodhi’s eyes flickered as she hesitated.

Wang Wen frowned. "Are you unwilling to give this order, Senior Sage Bodhi?"

The woman locked eyes with Wang Wen. "Infighting is not allowed on the Endless Frontier." Wang Wen nodded. "Of course not."

Only then did Sage Bodhi give the command for the order to be sent out to all the universes of the Endless Frontier.

The Gemini Universe received a green light as the Sage’s orders were submitted. However, Lu Yin would not wait for the Sixverse Association’s cultivators in a universe as weak as the Gemini Universe to gather and join the crusade. None of the people would be able to keep up with the battalion, which meant that it would be impossible for them to catch up when the battalion moved on.

Every battalion was led by Progenitor-level powerhouses, and with their assistance, even Explorers were able to experience what it was like to travel at the speed of a Progenitor. This ensured that all the battalions would quickly move across the Endless Frontier.
