Star Odyssey

h the Daosource Sect?

”The Marquis Wang that we saw before was another gatemaster of the Twelve Heavenly Gates, though she came from a different generation than the man who just left.
Still, while their eras were different, her strength should give you an idea of the strength of a gatemaster.
The man who just left is at least at her level, ” Ni Huang said.

”What is the Three Realms Six Dao? ” Lu Yin quickly asked.

Ni Huang looked away and grew more relaxed.
”The Three Realms Six Dao are merely legends.
I’ve only ever read about them in ancient records.
When I was born, the Three Realms Six Dao no longer existed.
The Dao Monarch who was just mentioned should have been one of the masters of the Three Realms Six Dao, and as far as I know, that person was also the sect master of the Daosource Sect.
However, that might have also been someone else entirely. ”

Right, Lu Yin realized that, despite all that he had heard about the Daosource Sect, he had never once heard any mention of a sect master.
How could a sect not have a leader?

The Fifth Mainland’s Daosource Sect, as well as the Sixth Mainland’s, had never once revealed any mention of a sect master.

”Senior, you were around when the Daosource Sect still existed.
Who was the sect master? ” Lu Yin asked.

Ni Huang, Wang Si, Bai Laogui, and Xia De all stared at Lu Yin.

Wang Si sneered.
”The sect master? A bastard of the Lu family will always be a bastard of the Lu family.
Even after he’s lost his memory, he still wants to use his ancestor ’s name to get an advantage. ”

Lu Yin was completely confused.

Ni Huang and the other Semi-Progenitors all left without saying anything more.

Kui Luo let out a few coughs.
”Well, it ’s said—though they’re just rumors—that the master of the Fifth Mainland’s Daosource Sect was your Lu family’s Progenitor. ”

Lu Yin ’s eyes widened.
”My family’s patriarch? ”

This novel is available on bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

Kui Luo nodded.
”Didn ’t I already tell you that your Lu family has several powerful Progenitors, including Lu Tianyi? He controlled one of the Mountains and Seas, but there were other, even more ancient, figures of legend from your family.
It’s possible that the sect master was one of those older Progenitors from your Lu family, but those rumors have never been confirmed.
Regardless, even an old man like me has never heard anything about the Daosource Sect having a sect master since I was born. ”

Lu Yin then understood why Ni Huang and the others had given him such odd looks and been so disgruntled by his question.
From what Kui Luo was saying, the Lu family had always ruled over the Fifth Mainland, not only by relying on their own strength, but also because of their ancestor’s legend.

The sect master of the Daosource Sect must have been a frighteningly powerful figure.
It was too bad that it was already too late.
Lu Yin should have asked Hen Xin who the sect master of the Fifth Mainland’s Daosource Sect was, just to confirm whether it had been the Lu family’s ancestor.

Fortunately, there would definitely be other people who would also appear from that era.

”How could the sect master have never been mentioned? ” Lu Yin was puzzled.

Kui Luo shrugged.
”Who knows? No matter if it’s the Fifth or the Sixth Mainlands, the Daosource Sect’s masters have never revealed themselves, reverting the position to a legend.
It must have happened long ago, and it most likely is somehow connected to the Aeternals. ”

Lu Yin then left.
He wanted to call the Astral Combat Academy to ask the mentors about the Three Realms Six Dao.

The fact that the Three Realms Six Dao had existed during Hen Xin’s era suggested that there was possibly a connection between the Astral Combat Academy and that ancient era.
However, so much time had passed that there were no longer any records of those ancient times.
Why would the Astral Combat Academy have something like the Three Realms Six Dao?

Could that be because of the inheritance that Lu Yin had heard about?

Lu Yin then remembered the insane headmaster’s words.
The Astral Combat Academy existed because of humanity’s inheritance.
Humans needed an inheritance.
Could it be that the Three Realms Six Dao was that inheritance?

If the Three Realms Six Dao had been relegated to legend, then why would the Astral Combat Academy keep the same name?

…

When Hen Xin appeared before Lu Yin and the others, elsewhere in the Outerverse, in the central weaves, more humans appeared out of spatial cracks.
Some of them fell onto planets, some were badly wounded and were dying, and others drifted through space.
There were even some who had been reduced to desiccated bones.

A man appeared in outer space with a swirl of black energy around his body.
He looked to be searching for something.
After a long time passed, he frowned.
”Why not? ”

Right after he spoke, an oddly shaped spaceship slowly drew closer to the man.

It was carrying people from the Sixth Mainland’s Cloud Valley.

The Cloud Valley Master had died during the great battle, and even the previous master had died, as well as Sword Scholar.
Cloud Valley still had an Imprinter even after all of these losses, but the expert had left as soon as the Cloud Valley Master perished.

The Cloud Valley had fallen so far that, when the Sixth Mainland’s major powers had been summoned to gather in the central weaves, the Cloud Valley had not had anyone left to lead them.
This was why they were forced to travel so slowly.

The strongest person inside the vessel only had a power level of about 400,000.
At the moment, the Enlighter was nervously staring out into outer space, worried that they would run into the Aeternals’ forces and be completely wiped out.

How magnificent the Cloud Valley had been during their heyday! As the elder in the Daosource Sect, the Cloud Valley Master had had four imprinters under his command.
However, they had since been completely abandoned.

The Enlighter let out a sigh and turned to leave when his expression suddenly changed.
At some unknown moment in time, a man had arrived behind the Enlighter, and the man was staring at the Enlighter with cold eyes.

The Cloud Valley had once had hundreds of thousands of disciples, though only tens of thousands of them had come to the Fifth Mainland’s Outerverse from the Sixth Mainland.
At the moment, there were only a few disciples remaining who qualified to follow the Enlighter, and he was absolutely certain that this cold-eyed man was not one of them.
When had this person appeared? The Enlighter had not noticed anything.

”Who are you? ” The Enlighter’s guard rose, and fear filled his eyes.

The man stared at the Enlighter.
”Are you scared? ”

The Enlighter swallowed.
”Senior, who might you be? ”

”I would like to know what year it is, ” the man slowly said.

Some time later, the man stared into outer space with his hands clasped behind his back.
The Enlighter remained standing where he was.
Despite the fact that the stranger had only spoken two sentences and less than twenty words, the Enlighter had already realized that this man must have lived for an incredibly long time.
Otherwise, how would he not even know what era it was? The man must have either been in cryostasis or had experienced something that the Enlighter did not dare try to imagine.
