Master Cao's "All Laws Keep Their Distance" had once driven the Ancient God to despair. Yet facing this sword, he stepped back, flicked a finger, and with a sharp clang, the Three Heavens Sword Intent snapped. It skimmed past his body and cleaved into the earth. Lu Yin and the other two stopped as well, pushed back a hundred meters. One more step and they would have been outside Yi Tian Que.
Silence fell beneath the cliff once more.
But the most shocked person now wasn't Master Cao. It was Yu Sang Tian.
He stared at Lu Yin in disbelief. This person had actually blocked a strike from someone in the Eternal Life Realm. How was that possible?
No matter how close he came to the Eternal Life Realm, without reaching that level, he could never cross the gap. This wasn't a matter of fighting above one's weight class; it was a matter of crossing a threshold of life. No matter how powerful an ant became, it was still an ant. It could never kill an elephant.
Yet Lu Yin had just blocked a strike from Master Cao. He had crossed that threshold of life.
Yu Sang Tian was incredulous—and more than a little afraid.
Now he understood where his unease had come from. This man could stand against someone in the Eternal Life Realm. What chance did Yu Sang Tian have against him?
If Lu Yin decided to attack him, it would be easy.
Across from them, Master Cao's expression was grave as he studied Lu Yin. "Another one. Is this the future potential of the Heavenly Origin Universe? As expected, even we who have reached eternal life cannot fathom a universe."
Lu Yin didn't understand what he meant. He quietly urged, "Moshang, get ready to climb the cliff."
