The Upheaval on Planet Zhenwu

"This is... the Fivefold Impact?" Tian Ming was horrified, looking at Lu Yin in disbelief.

Lu Yin nodded. "Thank you, Hall Master Tian Ming, for teaching me the Triple Impact before. This Fivefold Impact can be considered my repayment."

Tian Ming was stunned. "How do you know the Fivefold Impact? This is the ultimate technique of the Ninefold Gate in the Haoyuan territory. Did you run into a disciple of the Ninefold Gate?"

Lu Yin smiled and shook his head. "I learned it from a mentor at the Tenth Academy. Hall Master Tian Ming, the Fivefold Impact is not difficult. Feel it a little more. After you've learned it, I have to go and learn the Heavenly Beast Claw."

Tian Ming suppressed his shock and joy, nodded, and raised his palm again, his expression solemn. This was the Fivefold Impact. As an expelled disciple of the Ninefold Gate, the Fivefold Impact held a great attraction for him. Even if he would owe Lu Yin a favor, he was still willing to learn.

It wasn't that Lu Yin didn't want to teach him the Ninefold Impact; it really took too long. He didn't have the time to teach slowly. Even learning the Fivefold Impact took two days just to barely let Tian Ming feel the method of exerting force. To use it proficiently would take several months. Tian Ming was not Lu Yin; he didn't have the Heavenly Star Art and had to comprehend combat techniques slowly.

It was at times like these that Lu Yin felt the admirability of the Heavenly Star Art even more. He was eager to simulate the ninth star and form a galaxy. That would be a qualitative change.

The entire Heavenly Beast Claw was recorded on a stone wall. The Five Great Hall Masters each oversaw 20 forms, which were just a simulation of a part of the stone wall. The moment Lu Yin saw the official stone wall, a world-weary aura hit him in the face, followed by a huge beast claw tearing through the sky. In that instant, Lu Yin saw that even the scales on the beast claw were clearly visible, but only for an instant.

"The Heavenly Beast Claw stone wall was brought back from the Innerverse by His Majesty. Before, our Great Yu Empire didn't have the Heavenly Beast Claw or Void Flash. It wasn't until His Majesty returned from the Innerverse that we had these two combat techniques, which shook the Canglan territory," Tian Ming introduced, then left, leaving Lu Yin alone.

Lu Yin was already immersed in the Heavenly Beast Claw. It was clearly just a very ordinary beast claw tearing through the starry sky, yet it made him see endless changes, like a peerless expert who had returned to his original state, facing any combat technique, even with just one move, could resolve all the moves in the world. The Heavenly Beast Claw was like this, giving Lu Yin a feeling that he could deal with any combat technique.

Lu Yin stared at the Heavenly Beast Claw and unconsciously raised his hand to imitate it. A beast's roar faintly echoed in the void.

In the history of the Martial Hall, the person with the most comprehension of the Heavenly Beast Claw was the third-generation Hall Master who had died long ago, an expert who had stepped into the Explorer Realm and died in a war with another territory. That Hall Master had comprehended seventy-two forms and could be considered a talented prodigy. He had defeated two experts of the same realm by himself but had still died in a siege. It was truly sad and regrettable.

This was only in the Martial Hall. The ones who could learn the Heavenly Beast Claw were not only in the Martial Hall; the royal family could also learn it. Lu Yin had once seen the shadow of the Heavenly Beast Claw in the Second Prince, Duke Yushan's, drinking posture. It had already been integrated into his body. Duke Yushan had lived for several hundred years; his understanding of the Heavenly Beast Claw must be formidable. And there was also Crown Prince Dolan Yushan, who must have also learned the Heavenly Beast Claw.

Lu Yin had originally only learned 20 forms. Facing the ancient stone wall, he had been doing the same action for five consecutive days. He had now learned forty-three forms of the Heavenly Beast Claw. With the eight stars of the Heavenly Star Art circulating at full power, his learning speed had also increased a lot, and his understanding of the Heavenly Beast Claw was constantly rising.

Another five days passed, and he had learned ninety forms. His palm turned into a claw, and the void distorted. He had a feeling that once he learned all one hundred and eight forms of the Heavenly Beast Claw, he might be able to tear through the void.

For a Melting Realm cultivator to be able to tear through the void was a sign of a talented prodigy. The Five Great Hall Masters had studied the Heavenly Beast Claw for many years and had only learned less than 50 forms, which was why they were so weak, and why Wendy Yushan looked down on them. But Lu Yin's learning talent was enough to shake the Tenth Academy. The gap was huge.

The ninetieth form seemed to be a threshold. The further he went, the more difficult it was to comprehend. In the next three days, he only comprehended six forms, and then he could no longer continue. He couldn't understand it anymore. Even the Heavenly Star Art could only let him see the changes of the ninety-sixth form clearly.

Lu Yin exhaled and stopped learning. Ninety-six forms were very good. Alright, since he couldn't understand, he wouldn't force it. But he had a deep impression of the Heavenly Beast Claw. When the Heavenly Star Art was strengthened, perhaps he could deduce the remaining few forms based on his memory.

It took him thirteen days to comprehend ninety-six forms of the Heavenly Beast Claw. This achievement was enough to shock even Undying Yushan.

Lu Yin raised his hand, and a claw reached out, almost shattering the void. This power was enough to compare with the Ninefold Nine-Wave Palm. Once Battle Qi was integrated, Lu Yin felt he could really tear through the void.

Leaving the first ring, Lu Yin returned to the King of Zishan's residence.

It had been half a month since he had returned to the Capital Star. At this time, there were many more experts around the imperial palace. Although they had restrained their auras, Lu Yin could still feel them. He thought of the spaceships docked at the space station that did not belong to the Outerverse. Was it for the Undying Sutra? The experts of the Innerverse wanted to make a move on the Capital Star.

At this moment, his personal communicator chimed softly. Ghost's image appeared. "Little Seven, leave Planet Zhenwu immediately. Undying Yushan's death is imminent. Once he dies, no one can stop those Innerverse experts. Planet Zhenwu will be in chaos."

"There are several captains of the Imperial Court's Thirteen Squads on Planet Zhenwu. Nothing should happen," Lu Yin said.

Ghost said seriously, "Those Outerverse Cruisers are no match for the Innerverse experts. Except for Huo Qingshan and Meng Seng, the others are useless. And Meng Seng has been taken to the front lines by Dolan Yushan. Planet Zhenwu cannot stop those experts. Go."

Lu Yin sighed. To be honest, Undying Yushan had been pretty good to him. Planet Zhenwu was also considered peaceful. He hadn't expected it to be about to become a battlefield.

"Wendy Yushan is already on her way back to Planet Zhenwu. When she returns, she can suppress everything. Nothing will happen to the Great Yu Empire," Ghost said, seeing through Lu Yin's thoughts.

Lu Yin's heart trembled. Originally, the name Wendy Yushan had no effect on him; he had just treated it as a legend. But since being publicly rejected, this name had become entangled with him. Wendy Yushan didn't care about him, but he would absolutely not forget this person. It turned out that even Uncle Ghost believed this woman could suppress everything. "I know. Before I leave, I'll go and bid farewell to Undying Yushan."

Ghost nodded and cut off the light screen.

Entering the Grand Star Gate, Lu Yin clearly felt many more gazes on his back. A tea house had suddenly appeared not far from the imperial palace, filled with experts.

These Innerverse experts were becoming more and more unscrupulous. Once Undying Yushan died, they would surely rush into the imperial palace without any scruples. It was better to leave as soon as possible.

After waiting for a long time, Undying Yushan finally woke up and summoned Lu Yin.

"Uncle Emperor," Lu Yin greeted respectfully.

Undying Yushan looked at Lu Yin weakly. "Come closer."

Lu Yin walked straight forward.

"Closer."

Lu Yin was puzzled but still walked straight forward until he was beside Undying Yushan.

Undying Yushan looked at Lu Yin, his eyes cloudy and tired. "Little Yin, don't touch the Zishan clan's treasure. Go back to the Tenth Academy."

Lu Yin was shocked and looked at Undying Yushan. He knew. The iron-blooded emperor who had ruled the empire for eight hundred years saw everything clearly even on his deathbed. It was also his own fault for his purpose being too obvious that day, wandering around the imperial palace for half a day.

"Uncle Emperor," Lu Yin wanted to say something but was stopped by Undying Yushan. "The treasure belongs to your Zishan clan. Uncle Emperor shouldn't stop you. But there's no time. Don't think about the treasure anymore. Uncle Emperor will compensate you. Go, leave the Capital Star immediately, the farther the better. Before you have the power to protect yourself, don't go far from the Tenth Academy. Don't worry, even if a war breaks out in the empire, it won't affect Earth. That place, Uncle Emperor has already sent people to protect."

Lu Yin's eyes were sad. He felt Undying Yushan's care. He was really teaching him as an elder. "Uncle Emperor, you... take care."

This farewell was forever.

Undying Yushan nodded. "Go, the farther the better."

Lu Yin took a few steps back, turned, and bowed, then turned and left.

Undying Yushan sighed. So what if he had once roamed the universe? On his deathbed, he was troubled by thieves, his descendants were monitored, and his son had rebelled. He asked himself what he had done wrong. Why was it like this?

"Ai, a pity the effect of the Violet Crystal is not enough; otherwise, it could still extend His Majesty's life," Lu Yin had just walked out when he heard this sentence. A glint flashed in his eyes, and he stopped.

The one who spoke was the doctor who was treating Undying Yushan.

"Back then, when His Majesty returned from the Innerverse severely injured, it was thanks to the Violet Crystal that he was able to protect his life for so many years. But today, the Violet Crystal has also been almost consumed, and there is no way. That is a miracle medicine from the Innerverse's Fallen Star Sea. Even the Fifth Princess has a hard time collecting it. It requires luck," a doctor said bitterly.

"As long as its effect is doubled, His Majesty will be saved. A pity, a pity. The Second Prince is so vicious. A hundred years ago, he had already laid a plan to let the effect of the Violet Crystal gradually erode; otherwise, it wouldn't have come to this," another doctor said.

...

Lu Yin stood at the door, his eyes glinting. Increase the medicinal effect? Perhaps he could do it. As long as he rolled a three, he could upgrade the Violet Crystal by one level. Should he do it or not? He hesitated. If he did, he might expose his talent. But if he didn't... Remembering the way Undying Yushan had looked at him as if he were a family member, Lu Yin's heart trembled, and his gaze became firm.

Sometimes, human feelings were greater than everything. Lu Yin asked himself that he was not a selfless person. He would also be greedy for small profits and do dark and secretive things. It was impossible for him to sacrifice himself to save others. He had always thought that kind of person was a fool. But facing a family member, he couldn't just turn a blind eye; otherwise, what was the difference between him and a wild beast? Since coming to the Great Yu Empire, Undying Yushan had always been very good to him. He hoped to do his best to protect this person, even if it meant paying a certain price.

Lu Yin once again came before Undying Yushan. "Uncle Emperor, can you lend me the Violet Crystal to have a look?"

The people around all looked at Lu Yin. The Violet Crystal was what Undying Yushan was using to hang on to his life. This request was no different from murder.

The eyes of Huo Qingshan and Jue Lang instantly turned much colder.

Undying Yushan opened his weary eyes. "You may."

"Your Majesty, you can't! The Violet Crystal is a life-saving item," a doctor said in horror.

Undying Yushan said weakly, "How long can it protect me?"

The doctor lowered his head. It was not a question of how long it could protect him, but that it couldn't protect his life at all. Undying Yushan only had one breath left today.

"Give it to Little Yin," Undying Yushan said wearily.

Jue Lang stood up and stared at Lu Yin, his eyes icy. He didn't know what the King of Zishan wanted, but to ask for the Violet Crystal at this time was definitely not simple.

Lu Yin hadn't expected Undying Yushan to give him the life-saving Violet Crystal without any hesitation. He took a deep breath. He hoped his luck wouldn't be too bad. He must roll a three, he must.
