Star Odyssey

ade due to the speed of his attacks, and so, the sphere collapsed.

“Keep going!” Lu Yin looked back at Hua Beibei.

Hua Beibei grew excited.
“Ex , Expert! You are really a Beastmaster!”

Lu Yin was irritated at this impromptu title.
You’re a beast master! Your whole family’s a beast master!

There were more terror ants the closer the group drew to the queen ant, but the ants were completely unable to stop Lu Yin regardless of how many terror ants appeared.
He was like an arrow for his other group members, and the entire squad fiercely charged towards the queen ant.
Despite the presence of the terror ants all around, no one could take a single step back.

Eventually, people began to be picked off by the countless ants snapping at them.
Not even Lu Yin could take care of everyone, and even Shen Hai lost an arm to the swarm, not to mention the others.

“Master, the queen ant is hiding under the pile of bark just in front of you.
Be careful!” Hua Beibei instructed.
The young man looked very nervous.
There were only two paths before them: either disperse the ants by killing their queen, or dying by being devoured.

Lu Yin’s domain extended to probe beneath the pile of bark, and he saw the queen ant there.
This terror ant was dozens of times larger than the ordinary terror ants, and she was even larger than a person.
A pair of antennae nervously twitching about as the creature seemed to be trying to detect something.
When Lu Yin’s domain touched the queen, her antennae rose, and she emitted an odd chirping sound.
Suddenly, countless terror ants swarmed over from all directions, clearly intending to protect the queen ant.

Lu Yin used his golden battle force without any restraint.
He opened a hand and released a full powered, 350 Stacks Vacuum Palm that was strengthened by his golden battle force.

There was a boom as the void warped and cracked.
Shen Hai and the others were all frightened by this attack, as Lu Yin had released an attack that was more powerful than what even some Envoys could achieve.

Naturally, Lu Yin’s Vacuum Palm was not something that the terror ants or the queen ant could withstand, but the attack failed.
It had been slightly diverted by a scimitar, the weapon that belonged to Cheng Ji.

Seeing his attack foiled, Lu Yin felt that it was both expected and unexpected, as Cheng Ji had revealed himself as the Envoy realm traitor who had been killing squads and hiding terror ants.

There was a scream, and Cheng Ji’s entire squad suddenly attacked all of the other people.
Shen Hai was enraged, and he shouted, “All of you are traitors!

Cheng Ji stood some distance away, up in front of the queen ant.
Strangely, the surrounding terror ants completely ignored the human’s existence.
The Envoy stared at Lu Yin.
“You’re incredibly powerful for your age.
I never expected a genius like you to show up, but unfortunately, you’ll never get the chance to mature.”

Lu Yin and Cheng Ji stared at each other.
“How did you hide your cultivation realm from the general?”

Cheng Ji sneered.
“Aren’t you more surprised by our numbers?”

“What is there to be surprised about? You killed everyone in your squad who wouldn’t follow you, and those who chose to become traitors survived.
It’s normal for such people to work together and deceive others,” Lu Yin stated as though such a thing was merely a matter of course.

Cheng Ji nodded and clenched the scimitar in his hand.
“That’s right, they made the right choice.
I can give you the same opportunity as well—kill Shen Hai and his squad and become a traitor under me.
I can even let you live a better life than the one you’ve lived so far.
How does that sound?”

Lu Yin arched a brow.
“I’m still curious about how you managed to keep yourself hidden from the general.”

Cheng Ji laughed.
“That’s simple enough; I just drained every last bit of stellular energy from my body, absorbed a bit of star energy, and then used some special equipment.
Normally, no Envoy would ever deplete their stellular energy due to how hard it is to gather and cultivate it, but that doesn’t matter to me.
I’ll even abandon my cultivation if need be, as my mission is too important! Who would ever suspect someone who uses star energy of being an Envoy? It will take me a long time to recover, but I’m still strong enough to deal with you.”

Lu Yin understood that there were thousands of cultivators here who were not at the Envoy realm.
What’s more, this person had used treasures to hide his strength while also reverting to using star energy instead of stellular energy.
Who would check for such odd items? There were just too many people on the battlefield, and it would not be difficult for an Envoy to sneak through if they were willing to employ these methods.

It was precisely to deal with these kinds of experts that Humility’s Gate had dispatched so many powerhouses to the battlefield behind the Mother Tree.

“I’ll only say it a second time: kill Shen Hai and the others, and I’ll accept you as a traitor,” Cheng Ji said while looking past Lu Yin and focusing on Shen Hai and the rest of the squad.

Shen Hai and the others were busy fighting against both the terror ants and the traitors who were following Cheng Ji.
Everyone heard Cheng Ji’s words, and they were all anxiously waiting to hear Lu Yin’s response.

Lu Yin sighed.
“I suffer from a certain weakness: stubbornness.
If I had wanted to become a traitor, I would have done so long ago, and I certainly wouldn’t have waited until now.
Besides, I can promise that, if I ever become a traitor, I’d receive a position far above yours.”

Lu Yin sounded like he was joking, but after speaking, he raised his hand and threw out another Vacuum Palm.

There was a bang before Cheng Ji could even react.
Lu Yin’s Vacuum Palm struck his blade again, but the weapon was not able to endure the force of a second attack, and it shattered.
The Vacuum Palm continued on, slamming into Cheng Ji and knocking him backwards into the queen ant along with the shards of the scimitar.

The queen nervously wriggled her massive body.

Blood trickled from Cheng Ji’s mouth as he stared at Lu Yin in shock.
“You’re courting death!”

With that, the Envoy stepped forward and entered the true universe.

Envoys enjoyed more than just the advantage of suppressing the star energy of everyone with a lower cultivation realm.
Another important advantage was that cultivators at the Envoy realm and above could freely enter the true universe.
In other words, they could launch their attacks while remaining untouchable to Enlighters and other cultivators who could not even see the true universe.

However, Lu Yin was different.
When Cheng Ji entered the true universe, Lu Yin raised his foot and stepped forward as well.
His surroundings shimmered as he entered the true universe at the same time as Cheng Ji.
