Chapter 1971: God Of Disaster

This chapter is updated by Novels.pl

The two people turned to stare at each other in shock. They were both part of Leon's Armada, and they knew that they were backed by Eversky Island and had the support of a powerful Semi-Progenitor. However, they had never seen that expert before. They bragged about being backed by a Semi-Progenitor, but it was nothing more than talk. They had never actually thought that they would one day see an elite powerhouse at the Semi-Progenitor level.

Unexpectedly, to build the Tower of the Fifth, Little Seven was even able to ask a Semi-Progenitor for help.

As Ghost Doc had mentioned, the Fifth Mainland would survive regardless of if the Tower of the Fifth was built or not. However, if it was built, then it needed to be a dazzling beacon for the entire Fifth Mainland from the very start. Nothing could be more impressive and convincing than having a Semi-Progenitor lay its foundation, especially when the powerhouse was Arch-Elder Zen himself.

Arch-Elder Zen was not merely a Semi-Progenitor, but also the master of the Hall of Honor. His identity and status were so high that his intervention ensured that the Fifth Pagoda would not be ordinary. After the foundation was set in place, the Tower of the Fifth would officially be recognized by the Hall of Honor. It would be a place of training for all humans, and it would stand as an eternal symbol of the Fifth Mainland.

At this moment, Leon's Armada, together with its seventh regiment and countless other ships from the entire Cosmic Sea, were all waiting for Arch-Elder Zen to set the foundation in place. After that, they would begin constructing the Tower of the Fifth.

"It's too bad that Liu Feng was trapped in Burial Garden and that he couldn't get out. Now he can't see the Semi-Progenitor. What a pity," Kidney complained.

Ghost Doc calmly replied, "Everyone has their own fate. It's possible that Liu Feng will have his own adventure within Burial Garden."

Half a day later, Highsage Leon appeared with a massive blade in his hand, and he stared out across the sea.

At this moment, everyone near the Abyss of the Sea was staring at it.

They could see that someone had appeared above the Eye of the Sea at this moment. They were all looking at an old man, Arch-Elder Zen.

The Semi-Progenitor was standing in the air above the sea, looking down at it. He then opened a hand as though he wanted to grab a hold of the entire Cosmic Sea. As the solitary hand descended, the universe trembled. Everyone watching felt as though they were witnessing the end of the universe. Everything in existence seemed to be trembling, and the vortex in the middle of the sea began to slow down as well.

Right after that, from a distance so far that no one could see where, a solid mass of dirt appeared, pulled over by Arch-Elder Zen. It started to pile up at the center of the largest whirlpool in the Abyss of the Sea that devoured untold amounts of seawater every day. More and more of the dirt appeared, and eventually, it seemed as though an entire continent was flying through space.

There were strands of soil that connected the entire Neoverse. Apparently, this dirt was what was left after the destruction of the Fifth Mainland. Countless cultivators in the Neoverse would find a place on the dirt to cultivate, and supposedly, this was the only way for one to become a Progenitor.

This dirt was incredibly important to the Fifth Mainland, and yet it was being used as the foundation of the Tower of the Fifth.

Arch-Elder Zen used a tremendous amount of power to pull the soil from the Neoverse in order to build a foundation in the Abyss of the Sea. Eventually, the entire pit was filled with soil, which formed an incomparably large island at the center of the Cosmic Sea.

Once Arch-Elder Zen finished, all of the dirt still in the sky miraculously returned to the Neoverse while the soil that had been used to form the island solidified. Countless people could see that the Tower of the Fifth's foundation had been laid.

The vortex reappeared in the sea, but it could no longer devour any seawater. Instead, the currents crashed against the foundation of the Tower of the Fifth, which caused more currents to emerge. Both the speed and strength of the currents that appeared greatly surpassed what had existed in the Abyss of the Sea in the past.

The climate of the Abyss of the Sea had completely changed.

Countless people were stunned by the sight. This was the strength of a Semi-Progenitor, someone who could alter the universe at a whim.

Highsage Leon's eyes tightened. A Semi-Progenitor was an unfathomably far level of strength, but he was fully convinced that he would eventually be able to reach that level.

After this thought flickered through his mind, he looked back towards the new foundation and waved a hand. “Let's go, kids."

The members of Leon's Armada let out a loud cheer, but not because they were about to build the Tower of the Fifth. These people were not that altruistic or selfless. They had no thoughts about improving the overall strength of the entire Fifth Mainland at all. No, they were cheering because when the Great Eastern Alliance had contacted Leon's Armada about helping with building the Tower of the Fifth, the pirates had been promised that they would be allowed to enter the tower first.

When it came to the members of Leon's Armada and the Great Eastern Alliance, Lu Yin would never be inclined to treat them badly, and he was already planning to make some of the battle techniques in the Tower of the Fifth readily available for those people.

The Tower of the Fifth contained both Lu Yin's selfishness and selflessness. He truly did want to improve the overall strength of humanity, as he had no desire to see the Fifth Mainland hold a weaker position in the future, regardless of whether they faced the Perennial World or Aeternus.

Lu Yin had already left the hidden world that was Shamrock Enterprise's headquarters. Not only had he taken care of Leaf King, but he had also obtained astronomical amounts of wealth. Even more importantly, Lu Yin had found a cultivation path to tread as he passed through the Envoy realm.

This thought caused him to pay even more attention to Sapling and feel more and more attached to the plant, and he could not help but play with it a bit.

Sapling was happier than ever at the increased attention, and it kept jumping around on Lu Yin's shoulders in its own little dance.

"It would be great if you could talk," Lu Yin said regretfully. He had not yet forgotten about the stellular energy pills. Since Leaf King had been able to sense and control the pills, Sapling should be capable of doing the same thing. However, Lu Yin had no idea how to convey this idea to Sapling.

Before leaving the hidden world, Lu Yin had looked at the list of Shamrock Enterprise's seeds, and he could not help but be impressed by Leaf King's capability. There were thousands of seeds and hidden seeds, each of whom was a cultivator with an innate gift. His former classmate, Hei Xu, had been a seed, and he had possessed an innate gift that allowed him to cause the void to explode.

Numerous hidden seeds had been sent to many of the Fifth Mainland's major powers.

Lu Yin had already sent the list to Wang Wen, who would indirectly control the seeds through Shamrock Enterprise, which meant that Wei Rong had been given a path into many of the major powers.

Taking over Shamrock Enterprise meant nothing less than also taking over everything that the company had built up over countless years, which would provide incredible help in progressing Lu Yin's forces.

For the foreseeable future, he needed to devote himself to overseeing the construction of the Tower of the Fifth, as well as helping out whenever needed. He was certain that many people from various major organizations in the Fifth Mainland were already preparing themselves to make a trip to the Cosmic Sea. As soon as the Tower of the Fifth opened its doors, countless people would instantly charge towards it in order to seize an inheritance.

The tower had to be completed before the Perennial World invaded the Fifth Mainland, or else his intentions would most likely be uncovered when the Perennial World's forces started hunting him down. After all, that was when the Fifth Mainland would start feeling the pressure into turning Lu Yin over to the invaders.

The Second Nightking's expression was quite ugly as he carried a spaceship towards the Cosmic Sea. It was not long before they left the Honor Zone and entered the northern region of the Neoverse.

Sapling was still bouncing around over Lu Yin's head as he stared off into space, thinking about how to lure more people into the Tower of the Fifth. What about making a contribution memorial and placing it next to the Tower of the Fifth? Whoever had the greatest contributions towards the tower would have their name placed highest on the memorial.

There were many people who cared about fame and reputation, and the Tower of the Fifth would last until the Fifth Mainland itself was entirely destroyed. That meant that the memorial would essentially be preserved forever, and those listed on it would enjoy eternal fame. This was actually one way for people to leave their names down in history.

The more he considered the option, the more realistic it felt to Lu Yin. He ended up sharing the idea with Wang Wen to have the man handle the details.

Calling such a memorial the Contribution Platform would be too simple. It needed a more majestic name.

As he was thinking about this, Lu Yin caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye, but when he did a double take, the person had already disappeared.

The Second Nightking was moving too quickly through space, and they had already gone far past the person that Lu Yin had seen.

"Stop!" Lu Yin called out quickly. “Go slightly back to where we were just now."

The Second Nightking felt rather puzzled, but he followed along with Lu Yin's request.

Regarding the Second Nightking, Lu Yin was not certain if the man had truly been trapped in Leaf King's tree or if he had merely been pretending. Because of this, Lu Yin could not punish the old man.

Still, the timing of the old man's escape from the tree had been too coincidental, as he had broken free right when Leaf King had been about to escape.

No matter if the Second Nightking had truly been trapped or not, Lu Yin would never trust the man. As soon as he found someone who could replace the Second Nightking, or as soon as Lu Yin's own strength reached a comparable level, he would no longer need to rely on the old man as much. If a similar situation happened again, Lu Yin might simply kill the old man.

The Second Nightking quickly led Lu Yin back along the path they had traveled, and Lu Yin quickly looked south. “Chase after the man who went that way."

The Second Nightking stopped retracing his steps, and instead shot southwards with the spacecraft still in tow. In a blink of an eye, they saw a vessel that was rushing towards the Honor Zone at an incredible speed. It was an oddly-shaped ship that was clearly a custom design.

However, Lu Yin's eyes were not drawn to the ship so much as they were to the person lying on top of it: Xuan Jiu.

Lu Yin blinked. "Grab the guy stuck to the spaceship."

The Second Nightking disappeared.

Stars and space were shooting past him, and Xuan Jiu gritted his teeth. Anger painted his features. Rarely in his entire life had he ever felt so enraged.

He had been enjoying himself while wandering around, and he had recently decided that he would take a trip to Mt. Microcosms to see if he could find anyone who shared a bit of fate with him. However, who would have thought that he would suddenly be struck by a spaceship?

He had wanted to get out of the way, but after performing some calculations, he had found that getting hit would apparently be a good thing. So, Xuan Jiu had remained where he was and been ingloriously rammed into by a spacecraft. The impact had almost snapped him in half.

Fortunately, at that critical moment, he had managed to grab onto the ship, and he was determined to hang on. They wanted to escape after hitting someone? What a joke! He was Xuan Jiu! When had Grandpa Jiu ever allowed anyone to take advantage of him? Would he step back after being struck? Impossible!

Xuan Jiu had originally wanted to use his own strength to cow the occupants of the vessel, but after considering his latest divination, he decided to just let nature take its course. It was possible that the ship would take him to a good place…

Regardless of where he ended up, his divination indicated that this was a wonderful opportunity.

As he rubbed his sore waist, he pulled his signboard out. Regardless of where he went, he could never be without his signboard. It was a part of his identity!

As Xuan Jiu was imagining where the ship would take him, his vision started spinning and space changed. Suddenly, the ship was gone, and so was his signboard! He was actually being dragged through space by the neck like a chicken.

Xuan Jiu was utterly confused. What was going on? Where was he? What was happening?

He slowly looked up, only to see an expressionless face that caused Xuan Jiu's mouth to fall open. "No, No! The Second Nightking?"

The Second Nightking looked down, surprised to actually be recognized.

"It's been a long time, Xuan Jiu." A familiar voice spoke from behind the old man.

The sound of it left Xuan Jiu positively terrified, and he slowly turned his head around. There was a smile on the old man's face that was uglier than any crying face he could possibly make. "Lu- Lu Yin."

Why did this person have to be the one who captured him?! Xuan Jiu cursed his recent fantasies of a good opportunity awaiting him. What good thing? This was clearly the worst outcome possible! He was with Lu Yin, the god of disaster himself! This was the end. Any involvement with Lu Yin would strengthen the fate that lay between the youth and Xuan Jiu. There was a mystery behind this that Xuan Jiu could not uncover.

Xuan Jiu had never expected his divinations to even deceive himself!

When he performed divinations for others, positive predictions could turn out to be terrible ones, which was why Xuan Jiu had a horrible reputation as a fortune teller. However, he quite enjoyed his reputation, though he had never thought that he would fall victim to himself.

On the other hand, Lu Yin was thrilled to run into Xuan Jiu.

Lu Yin had once thought that the old man was a fraud and a charlatan, as that was his reputation. However, after Xuan Jiu had vomited blood when trying to perform a divination on Lu Yin's family, his opinion of the fortune teller had completely changed. Lu Yin had later learned from the Starsibyl Sect that Xuan Jiu really had learned Heaven's Enigma, though there had apparently been some issues with the technique for a time. Lu Yin felt that Xuan Jiu was quite useful, and he had even asked the old man to take on the role of national advisor for the Great Eastern Alliance during ZENTIH.

However, once the position became available, Xuan Jiu had disappeared. When Lu Yin had last heard from the old man, it had been a call to Lu Yin when he had been at the mobile fortress in the Ross Empire. At that time, Xuan Jiu had mentioned a very mysterious topic: Bad Luck and Destiny.

At this moment, Lu Yin was desperate to find the Starsibyl Sect and have them do some divinations for him. He had not been able to find any traces of the Starsibyl Sect yet, but he had stumbled upon Xuan Jiu.

The universe was beyond massive, and yet Lu Yin had managed to personally run into this old man. Lu Yin felt as though his luck was truly heaven-defying.

In contrast, Xuan Jiu felt that his luck was simply the worst. His expression grew more and more miserable as he looked at Lu Yin. "Lu Yin, what a coincidence. Um, can you let the Second Nightking let me go? There's something urgent that I need to take care of. Some child owes me a debt, but they tried to run away, so I need to chase them down. I'll visit you when I have the chance."

Recently I created a game for Android Energy Idle Tycoon , I could use a little support in promoting it, just download it and play for a while. Thank you in advance.
