Chapter 1613: The Time Has Come

Lu Yin waited quietly, and the next day, a female disciple from Chaosgod Mountain arrived and met with him.

Lu Yin had disguised himself with the fisherman’s appearance, and given his current strength, no one on Chaosgod Mountain would be able to see through his disguise unless it was Cang Zhou.

"Let's go. Elder Cang Song is waiting for you," the woman said.

Lu Yin was caught off guard. "You?"

The female disciple pointed outside. "You’re not the only one here; there’s another person from your Anglers’ Club who wants to sell fish. You two should know each other."

Lu Yin followed her finger and saw a familiar middle-aged man. Lu Yin’s expression instantly changed a bit; wasn’t that the same man who had cooked the fruit fish on Nightking Planet?

The man looked at Lu Yin, and his expression also changed. He smiled as he said, "Number Six, I didn't expect to see you here. What kind of fish did you catch?"

Lu Yin hefted the bucket in his hand. "Elder Cang Song likes to eat these. How ‘bout you?"

The man looked in the bucket Lu Yin held and frowned. "Number Six, how many times have I told you that you can't store that kind of fish like this! It messes with the taste. What will Elder Cang Song do if he isn’t satisfied when eating it?"

He then turned to the female disciple. "Please wait a moment. I’ll help him resituate the fish."

"Hurry up." The woman was impatient and had no interest in fish.

The man led Lu Yin back into the house, and his expression changed. He stared into Lu Yin's eyes. "Who are you?"

Lu Yin was startled. "I'm Number Six; what's wrong?"

The man sneered. "But who is Number Six?"

Lu Yin arched a brow. "I’m Meng E. You haven’t forgotten my name, right?"

Meng E was the name of the man whose appearance Lu Yin had adopted.

The man’s eyes narrowed. "He has never been called Number Six."

Lu Yin understood; the name Number Six had been made up by the other fisherman in order to test Lu Yin. "How did you figure it out?"

The man snorted derisively. "The members of our Anglers’ Club are always fishing in the Astral River, and the air around us is different from other people. We always have a fishy scent on us, and it’s our greatest struggle as it can’t be removed. Your body doesn’t carry that smell."

Lu Yin shrugged. "I just had bad luck to run into you."

The middle-aged man suddenly attacked, and he grabbed for Lu Yin's neck. He wanted to subdue Lu Yin, but Lu Yin reacted at the same time and grabbed the man’s hand. He pushed back, and the man’s arm bent as his body was forced to the floor by Lu Yin. He stared up at Lu Yin in shock. "You?"

Lu Yin gave a small smile. "I just want to talk. No need to make a fuss."

"Who the hell are you?" The man was stunned. He had a power level that exceeded 300,000, and he could be considered a powerhouse in both the Outer and Innerverse. Even on Chaosgod Mountain, he had the power to rank among the top five experts of the sect out of all of their countless members. He was an independent powerhouse, but he had not expected to run into someone who could leave him feeling completely helpless. This person was pretending to be a member of the Anglers’ Club, so the man knew that things would not be simple.

Lu Yin restored his normal appearance and calmly stared at the man.

The man’s pupils instantly shrank. "Is it really you?"

Lu Yin released his hold on the man and smiled. "It’s been a long time. That fruit fish was delicious; do you have any more?"

The man frowned and rubbed his wrist. This was unbelievable! Long ago, the man had met Lu Yin on Nightking Planet, and right after that, the battle between Lu Yin and Nightking Zhenwu had stirred up waves throughout the entire Innerverse. However, it had still been a fight between youths. While Lu Yin from back then might have been able to fight against the fisherman, it would have been impossible for the man to lose to the youth. How much time had passed since then? Already Lu Yin was able to leave the man unable to mount any hint of resistance.

"What do you want to do?" the man asked. His tone of voice had soured, but he was actually more afraid than ever. He had already caught another fruit fish from the Astral River Ark, but it had been stolen by Tian Shao. The fisherman was not someone who was fearless in the face of death.

Lu Yin said, "My plans have nothing to do with you. Just don't expose me, and everyone will be better off. Otherwise, I’ll make it impossible for you to leave Chaosgod Mountain alive, and I’ll also make sure the Anglers' Club will be banned from fishing in the Astral River."

The man replied in anger, "You steal the identity of a member of my Anglers' Club in order to make trouble here on Chaosgod Mountain. They’ll definitely come after us! Things are not going to go well for us after this."

"Do you actually think they’ll even be able to waste any time on you after this?” Lu Yin casually asked before walking out of the room. "Get the fish."

By the time Lu Yin left the building, he had already regained Meng E's appearance. The fisherman followed behind Lu Yin. He had no choice but to dutifully behave and pick up Lu Yin’s fish.

The woman from Chaosgod Mountain did not feel that anything was different, and she led Lu Yin and the fisherman into the inner sect.

They walked for a long time before finally entering the inner sect through a teleportation device. After that, they saw various disciples training as they continued along.

All of the disciples were impressive, and they far outclassed the disciples groomed by the major forces of the Outerverse. Even with Lu Yin's perspective, these students could all qualify to study at the Astral Combat Academy. In the past, Cang Shi had also performed well during the Astral Combat Tournament.

As soon as Lu Yin thought of Cang Shi, he appeared.

Lu Yin was left speechless.

Cang Shi was merely passing by. He was no longer a member of the younger generation, and instead had become Chaosgod Mountain’s youngest elder.

Right when Lu Yin entered Chaosgod Mountain’s inner regions, Ku Wei looked up above the black dome. It was time.

In front of him, a Hunter from Chaosgod Mountain was fighting against another colossal giant. Suddenly, Ku Wei shrank his body when no one was paying attention to him. He then moved over to the group of giants who had already been at Chaosgod Mountain before his arrival, and he threw some blood towards them.

Chaosgod Mountain made no efforts to prevent the colossal giants from speaking to each other. The colossal giants were not technically prisoners, if one was speaking nicely, but they were not much better off from prisoners as they were forced to spar and fight with Chaosgod Mountain’s disciples. Fortunately, the giants were not prevented from communicating with each other.

The giants had already know from the previous day what Ku Wei would do, and they did nothing to stop him.

After absorbing Ku Wei’s blood, a total of twenty colossal giants started to transform.

Twenty colossal giants had been left at Chaosgod Mountain, the strongest of whom was Chen Ling, whose power level surpassed 300,000, which meant that he was about as strong as Chen Jian.

As Ku Wei's blood entered the giants’ bodies, Chen Ling showed the strongest reaction, and his body started growing without any sign of stopping.

Off in the distance, the people from Chaosgod Mountain stared in amazement and confusion, as they could not understand what was happening to the giants.

Cang Yi was in charge of keeping an eye on the giants, but at this moment, he had no idea what was happening. Thinking quickly, he moved over in front of Chen Ling. "What's happening? Chen Ling, what are you doing?"

Chen Ling'’s eyes gleamed as a terrifying aura shot into the sky. The ground shattered and Cang Yi was sent flying with a slap.

Due to his years of training, Cang Yi was able to sense the approaching danger, and was only barely able to avoid a direct attack, but he was still caught up in the powerful gust of wind that was stirred up by the slap, and his body was smashed against the stone wall. He coughed up blood and looked up in shock. Chen Ling's strength was supposed to be at a similar level to Cang Yi’s, but this slap was more powerful than anything Cang Yi had ever witnessed from the giant. Chen Ling’s strength had taken a qualitative leap upwards.

The top of the mountain ranges came pressing down from overhead. This was the same method used by Chaosgod Mountain to subdue the giants, but Chen Ling’s change had destroyed this method of containing the giants.

Chen Ling clenched a fist and threw out a punch against the approaching mountain. He barely managed to affect the mountain. The mountain was also targeting the other giants, but Ku Wei released his full strength and regained his full height of 8,000 meters. He was about as tall as Chen Ling. Ku Wei cooperated with Chen Ling and unleashed the Ku family’s Finger Tap.

Cang Yi stared at Ku We, his face pale with fright; since when were giants able to use battle techniques?

There was a crack, and the mountain shattered.

Cang Yi's pupils constricted, and he quickly ordered the other Chaosgod Mountain disciples to move against the giants. "Chen Ling, you’re insane! Do you want to bury all of the other giants with you? We’ve been helping you!"

Chen Ling slapped at Cang Yi once again, and Cang Yi quickly dodged.

Many of Chaosgod Mountain’s disciples raced down towards the dome to suppress the colossal giants. The newly arrived giants were still not a problem, as they were not in their prime. They were unable to stop any of the disciples. However, the giants who had already been at Chaosgod Mountain were not being suppressed, and several of them had already achieved the strength of Enlighters.

The news of this incident quickly spread through Chaosgod Mountain, and one by one, the elders and powerhouses were sent to the black dome. Cang Song was also sent, and he sneered as he glared at Chen Ling. "Chen Ling, just what are you doing? I never treat you badly! Do you really want to cause Giant Consortium to be destroyed?"

Chen Ling punched at Cang Song, and the elder coughed as he faced the attack.

Chen Ling's power level exceeded 400,000, which was even stronger than Chen Jian, and placed him at a similar level to Cang Song. However, the giants had no battle techniques, and they also had not been able to comprehend battle force, so they held no advantage in the fight. Neither side was able to gain the upper hand.

Another elder with a power level of more than 300,000 appeared. Ku Wei moved to face off against the newly arrived elder, but Cang Yi launched a sneak attack on Ku Wei from behind. Ku Wei sneered and spun around to point a finger at Cang Yi. "Brother Wei has endured you for long enough!"

The Ku family’s battle technique was able to deprive their opponents of the will to fight, and this was what happened to Cang Yi. As he faced Ku Wei's Finger Tap, Cang Yi was momentarily unable to attack. Also, because Ku Wei was a colossal giant, each of his fingers was like a mountain, and the finger smashed into Cang Yi.

Cang Yi’s head rose and he vomited blood. His body struck the mountainside with a splat. His legs were bent in odd angles, and he was clearly badly wounded.

Ku Wei was then attacked by another elder from behind, but the attack only managed to scratch his skin. Ku Wei whirled around and slapped at the elder. "Get lost."

The elder evaded the attack and stared at Ku Wei in surprise. "Who are you?"

Ku Wei grinned. "Captain of the Great Yu Empire’s 10th Imperial Squadron and disciple of the leader of the Great Eastern Alliance: Ku Wei!"

The elder's expression instantly and drastically changed. "Someone from Lu Yin?"

The giants were rioting, and Chaosgod Mountain was locked down as fast as possible. Everything proceeded just as Lu Yin had expected. Chaosgod Mountain was sealed off completely.

At the moment, Lu Yin and the fisherman were no longer able to meet with Cang Song, and the woman guiding them was staring at the dome in amazement. Just what had happened?

One after another, Chaosgod Mountain’s powerhouses were sent out to the black dome.

Without additional help, Chen Ling and other giants would eventually be subdued.

The fisherman stared at Lu Yin; all of this had to have something to do with this person.

Suddenly, the void trembled. Lu Yin’s expression grew focused; the Envoys were moving. He was feeling a fluctuation of stellular energy.

Stellular energy swept out, disrupting everyone’s star energy and suppressing them. However, this was useless against Chaosgod Mountain’s disciples and the giants. Both of them focused on physical strength, though things were different for Ku Wei. He had directed a Finger Tap at an elder, but his attack had just been dispersed.

Suddenly, the void broke open and Cang Zhou stepped out. There was an ugly expression on his face as his eyes swept the place. He raised a hand and pressed down to instantly and completely subdue all of the colossal giants at once. Given his strength, this was an easy task.
