Star Odyssey

days, Lu Yin finally returned to the Ironblood Lavazone. 

It had taken ten days, and now it had been exactly thirty five months since the day the Innerverse and Outerverse had been separated.
The reluctant stalemate on the Outerverse border warfront frustrated the Sixth Mainland, and an unknown Imprinter suddenly moved against the Greatwood Lavazone on this day.
His star energy descended like meteors, and each one had the shape of a wolf’s head.
This was a bizarre battle technique. 

The troops stationed in the Greatwood Lavazone were overwhelmed by the assault, as they could not withstand even a single meteor.
Each meteor was equivalent to an attack that had a power level surpassing 400,000.
This was the power of an Imprinter. 

From below the Greatwood Lavazone, an unknown amount of star energy formed into arrows that shot up and collided with the falling meteors.
The multiple intense impacts tore the sky apart and left a hole in space. 

The Arrow Mountain Elder had made a move, as he was the only one capable of stopping an Imprinter. 

The Greatwood Lavazone had an Envoy-level powerhouse like the Arrow Mountain Elder, and despite the Sixth Mainland already being aware of this, they had still insisted on attacking the Greatwood Lavazone.
Their goal was to completely destroy the border’s defensive perimeter.
It wasn’t just one Imprinter that had moved, as Yan Cheng had also revealed himself at this time.
His Triple Palm descended to accompany the other Imprinter’s meteor shower attack.
Even the Arrow Mountain Elder was not able to completely defend against this combined attack, and half of the Greatwood Lavazone was destroyed in a short amount of time. 

Lord Egret died. 

Qiong Xi ’er’s face paled as she looked up into the skies.
Once the Arrow Mountain Elder was unable to continue resisting the two Imprinters, they were all going to die. 

Zhu San felt depressed.
If he had known how things would turn out, he would not have come to the border; this place was too dangerous. 

Even in a one-on-one, the Arrow Mountain Elder might not have been a match for either of the two Imprinters.
The boosted strength that gained from their imprints combined with the innate suppression that the Fifth Mainland cultivators felt against them was already enough to tip the scales.
With it being a two against one battle, the Arrow Mountain Elder was shedding blood just to continue defending the border. 

Yuan Shi finally could no longer bear just watching and he moved, only to be obstructed by Ancestor Mojiang, who had been constantly keeping an eye on Yuan Shi.
When the two top powerhouses clashed, they vanished in an instant, as if their battle was occurring in a separate space. 

“This Lavazone can disappear now.” Yan Cheng smiled as the Bluedome Elder’s imprint appeared behind him.
Anyone who became an Imprinter had the right to have the Bluedome Elder as their own imprint, as that powerhouse was an Empyrean Imprinter.
It was precisely the Bluedome Elder’s imprint that allowed Yan Cheng and the other Imprinter to suppress the Arrow Mountain Elder. 

The Arrow Mountain Elder spat out a mouthful of blood, and a resolute expression appeared on his weathered face.
He slowly took out a simple looking longbow and formed a seal with one hand.
He was using his battle technique. 

The Endless Lavazone lay to the east of the Greatwood Lavazone, and an intense battle had also erupted there at the same time.
However, since the defenders there had the support of Aurora Enterprises’ President Qi, they were able to defend their region as long as no Imprinter appeared. 

Master Bei was struggling against an Enlighter realm android when his body suddenly froze.
An arrow was drawn out from within his body and flew to the west. 

Master Bei’s expression changed abruptly, and he wanted to seize the arrow back.
But just when he stretched out his hand, he thought of something.
Instead, he gritted his teeth and gave up on the arrow. 

That arrow was one of the three arrows that Neo-Vestige Sect had passed down throughout ages, and Master Bei had always carried that arrow on his body.
Only one person was able to summon that arrow from him, and that was the Arrow Mountain Elder. 

Master Bei truly did not want to let the Arrow Mountain Elder use that arrow, but there was no way the Enlighter could stop him from doing so. 

In the Greatwood Lavazone, Yan Cheng and the other Imprinter were reinforced with the supreme power of the Bluedome Elder’s imprint, and they looked down upon the Greatwood Lavazone.
The androids and Sixth Mainland cultivators had all pulled back.
They had every intention of uniting to completely destroy this place. 

Within the Greatwood Lavazone, Qiong Xi ’er and the others gritted their teeth as they stared up at the sky.
No matter how smart Qiong Xi’er was, she was powerless to affect the situation of this battle. 

“Destroy it completely!” the unknown Imprinter barked, causing space itself to shudder.
A power level of 500,000 completely burst forth, which caused many cultivators to think that everything before their eyes was about to shatter, as this region of space could not withstand such a violent force. 

On the other side of the battlefield, Yan Cheng also unleashed his full strength, and the two Imprinters joined forces, plunging all of the defenders deep into despair. 

The Arrow Mountain Elder held his longbow and glanced at the tens of thousands of Neo-Vestige Sect disciples who were all beneath him as well as the hundreds of thousands of cultivators protecting the border.
His eyes were filled with determination; even if he died, he would not allow the border’s defenses to collapse. 

With a whoosh, an arrow flew out that was caught by the Arrow Mountain Elder, and he nocked it upon the longbow.
There was no majestic might being released nor was there any sort of overwhelming feeling of suppression.
There was only a very ordinary arrowhead, but it was precisely this exceptionally sharp arrowhead that made Yan Cheng and the other Imprinter feel an indescribably fearsome aura.
They both felt as though some terrifying beast had laid its sights upon them. 

At the same time, in the void, Ancestor Mojiang’s expression changed, as he had sensed a familiar aura.
He tore through the void and stepped out to see the arrow in the Arrow Mountain Elder’s hands.
Could that be…? 

With a whoosh, the arrow disappeared.
Phantom images of nine plumes appeared around the fletching of the arrow.
Next, a vague phantom image appeared.
It was very indistinct, but it could vaguely be recognized as having a humanoid shape.
At this moment, the void solidified, and it felt as though time itself had halted for this instant.
It was also possible that everyone’s perception was being overwhelmed by that invisible strength, including even the Imprinters and Ancestor Mojiang.
 

The arrow pierced straight through Yan Cheng’s heart before continuing on and shooting through the void. 

The Arrow Mountain Elder made the seal with his hand once again, causing the arrow to return to his side. 

Only at this time was anyone able to react, and they all turned to look at outer space.
Yan Cheng was clutching at his chest as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
He was almost unable to remain standing. 

A single arrow had managed to severely injure an Imprinter.

Yuan Shi was surprised, as that arrow was completely extraordinary, and even his heart had palpated at that instant.
Was that Neo-Vestige Sect’s foundation? It was rumored that the Neo-Vestige Sect had been established upon the foundation of three great arrows.
