The Gemini Universe was a massive battlefield. There were corpse kings scattered across the entire universe, battling against countless cultivators. While some of these cultivators were from the Sixverse Association, most of them were natives of the Gemini Universe.

Lu Yin saw the natives of the universe fighting and how all of the twins were able to swap positions with their siblings in the midst of battle. It was amazing.

This ability was essentially a part of the Gemini Universe’s unique characteristics. Just as all children were born as twins, their ability to swap places was another innate law of the universe.

The megaverse was a miraculous place, and universes with all kinds of different laws had been born.

Lu Yin took action, and Cang Bi did the same, fighting under Lu Yin’s command.

There were no peak powerhouses present in the universe, which meant that Lu Yin could run wild.

He had assumed that it would be just as easy to eliminate the Aeternals in the Gemini Universe as it had been in the Lilliput Universe, but he had underestimated the situation in the Gemini Universe. While it was true that there were no Progenitor-level corpse kings in the universe, there were simply too many corpse kings. Their sheer numbers made it a challenge to eliminate them all.

After clearing one battlefield, the first message that he received was a report that all of the Cyclic Universe’s reinforcements had pulled out of the Gemini Universe and moved on to other parallel universes.

The Gemini Universe had hosted no fewer than 100,000 cultivators from the Sixverse Association, but more than half of them were taken away when the Cyclic Universe pulled out.

Lu Yin did not even need to guess about the cause, as he knew that Sovereign Shao Yin was responsible for this matter. Still, it was not important, as it simply meant that he needed to take a bit more time.

While the Gemini Universe was adjacent to the Lilliput Universe, the massive difference in the reinforcements sent to the two universes by the Sixverse Association amply demonstrated the differences between the two places.

Aeternus simply had too many corpse kings in the Gemini Universe, while the Lilliput Universe had the gravity wind, which was not something that everyone could deal with. These differences naturally led to different numbers of cultivators and corpse kings fighting in these two neighboring parallel universes.

Cang Bi told Lu Yin that many cultivators were sent to reinforce every parallel universe on the Endless Frontier, but the more important part was that the reinforcements never stopped being sent.

The constant fighting was a nightmare for the sixty-two parallel universes that made up the Endless Frontier. It was also a nightmare for the Sixverse Association, as even a Semi-Monarch like Cang Bi was terrified to serve on the Endless Frontier.

Lu Yin started fighting, working to purge the Gemini Universe.

There were countless corpse kings, but Lu Yin was able to destroy a massive swarm with each attack.

His years of training allowed him to quickly adapt to this odd form of combat which was essentially slaughter without encountering any real resistance.

If the corpse kings were not eradicated, then humans would be. There was no choice in how to proceed.

Lu Yin was no god, and he was unable to transform a corpse king back into a human being. f reekiss.com

Possibly because they were worried that Lu Yin would not be able to fully purge the Gemini Universe, or perhaps because of his evident eagerness to clear the universe, a pair of Semi-Progenitor level twins who were elders of the universe’s natives led Lu Yin to see a certain place. It looked quite similar to an Aeternus Kingdom, but this was a place where the Aeternals conducted research on the indigenous population of the Gemini Universe. There was only one way to describe their research: cruel.

According to the old twins, from the moment that the Gemini Universe had been added to the Endless Frontier to now, there was no way to estimate just how many of the universe’s people had been killed by the Aeternals. The universe was also a production sitewhere Aeternus transformed people into corpse kings.

“Production site” was a very nasty but apt name.

Lu Yin saw countless twin cultivators beneath the city, all being transformed into corpse kings. There were simply too many to count.

He left the people to the indigenous population to deal with, and moved to continue personally eliminating the endless horde of corpse kings.

Ten days. Fifteen days. Twenty days... Two months passed until the Endless Frontier’s commander center finally saw the Gemini Universe trigger a green light.The woman with the broad hand and black windbreaker perked up at the sight of the green light. "The most troublesome aspect of the Gemini Universe is not the presence of powerful corpse kings, but rather the sheer number of them. There are truly countless of them crawling about, and it’s nearly impossible to find them all. This Dao Monarch Lu managed to purge all of the corpse kings from the universe in just two months, which is something that even many peak powerhouses most likely would not be able to do. This person needs to be on the Endless Frontier.

"Which parallel universes are connected to the Gemini Universe?"

A woman replied, "The Big Stone Universe and the Umbral Universe."

"Both of those universes are very difficult to deal with. He won’t be able to clear either one, but he will still be an invaluable helper in either one of them. All that remains to be seen is which one he will choose to go to." As the woman spoke, she leaned forward, eager to see how things would play out.

The Origin Universe had been home to the magnificent Heavens Sect, which even the Aeternals had avoided. During the Heavens Sect era, humanity had reached its peak, and no matter if one considered parallel universes or Aeternus, no power had ever managed to rise up to match the glory of the past Heavens Sect. The woman wanted to see that sort of glorious power once more. It was such a pity that the Origin Universe had fallen from such incredible prosperity and splendor to its current state.

In the Gemini Universe, Lu Yin stood calmly in place. Behind him stood the twin elders, and Cang Bi was nearby, though there was a very twisted expression on the Semi-Monarch’s face.

"Ordinary humans are able to live normally in the Big Stone Universe, but all cultivators need to carry stones on their backs in order to resist the universe’s strange universe’s law. This energy is not something that the Aeternals released, as it instead comes from the universe itself. Only peak powerhouses can endure the energy with their own strength, though that also depends on the strength of the energy.

"There is a rumor that even a peak powerhouse was once badly wounded by the laws of that universe, and their wounds eventually caused them to fall to a sneak attack from the Aeternals.

"If you intend to fight in the Big Stone Universe, it would be best to immediately contact the natives and find a stone that suits you. Without that, the universe’s law will eventually affect you, and if you are forced to face that and Aeternus at the same time, it will be too dangerous."

Lu Yin looked back at the old twins. Even after two months in the Gemini Universe, he still felt surprised by its unique characteristics. These two old men were perfectly identical, and they even had the exact same level of cultivation. On top of that, they could freely swap positions with each other. Was this ability something innate to the Gemini Universe, or had the laws of the universe been altered by some powerhouse?

Lu Yin knew about the existence of sequence particles, and he also understood what it meant to alter a universe.

Xia Shenji's Shenwu World that he could spread across a portion of a universe did not alter the universe. Rather, his Progenitor’s world was a layer that overlapped the existing universe. Similarly, the Rune Progenitor’s runes did not alter the laws of the universe, but rather simply added the presence of runes.

Truly altering a universe meant altering the fundamental laws that governed the characteristics of that universe.

The Gemini Universe’s laws did not appear to be something that had originally been present in this universe.

The laws of a universe, also known as sequence particles, might act like some kind of program for some individuals, and they could rewrite the program according to their wishes. That was truly altering a universe.

"Have any peak powerhouses ever been killed in the Big Stone Universe?" Lu Yin asked.

"Yes, that universe is regarded as one of the most dangerous universes on the entire Endless Frontier. There is no doubt that it is a battlefield for peak powerhouses."

Lu Yin frowned, as this complicated things for him. The fact that this next universe was a battlefield for peak powerhouses meant that Aeternus was willing to send Progenitor-level corpse kings into the universe. If Lu Yin went after that corpse king, they would replace it, possibly with one of the Seven Skygods.

Just the thought of the Seven Skygods filled Lu Yin with fear. He still clearly remembered witnessing Corpse God’s power in the Starfall Sea.

It was absolutely impossible for Lu Yin to deal with any of the Skygods, and it would be difficult for him to even fight back against them.

"L- Lord Lu, we are not heading into the Big Stone Universe, are we?" Cang Bi was terrified. He forced himself to ask the question, his face pale as his eyes revealed his anxiousness.

Lu Yin clasped his hands behind his back. "I still need to clear out one more universe."

Cang Bi lost control of himself. "Lord Lu, this isn’t about some green light! There is a peak powerhouse in that universe, which is undoubtedly a powerful corpse king! This is an opponent at the same level as the Three Sovereigns and Nine Sages, Lord Lu!”

Lu Yin frowned and glanced sideways at the man.

Cang Bi’s mouth snapped shut, but his expression grew poorer. He looked at the twin elders, as though begging them for help.

One of the two old men coughed. "Actually, our Gemini Universe is also connected to another parallel universe."Cang Bi's eyes grew large and practically glowed. "Really? Which universe is that?"

The other elder gave Cang Bi a sympathetic look. "The Umbral Universe."

Cang Bi’s mouth fell open. He really wanted to slap these two old men.

Lu Yin grew curious. "The Umbral Universe? That’s quite the odd name."

Cang Bi wailed, "Lord Lu, we can't go to that universe!"

One of the twin elders respectfully explained, "Like the Big Stone Universe, the Umbral Universe is one of the more difficult universes on the Endless Frontier. It’s become a nightmare for countless people. While I can’t say for certain that there are any peak powerhouses in the Umbral Universe, unlike the Big Stone Universe, I would say that it’s at least eighty percent likely."

"100 percent!" Cang Bi screamed.

Lu Yin looked over. "You know about this place?"

Cang Bi grimaced. "I’ve heard Senior Chen Le mention that the people of the Umbral Universe live only in the shadows, and they specialize in assassination and other obtuse methods. It’s difficult to encounter any normal people there, but there are many killers. Often, when the Sixverse Association wants to get rid of a troublesome person, instead of executing them, they’ll send them to the Umbral Universe. Because of that, Aeternus has sent many powerful corpse kings there as well.”

"Senior Chen Le said that he nearly died there, but was lucky enough to escape. Normal cultivators wouldn’t be able to survive for more than an hour in that place.”

"More importantly, there are definitely monsters similar to Cheng Kong in that universe. I heard all of this from Senior Chen Le."

One of the twin elders said, "That’s true, and the Sixverse Association is not the only one to do so, as the parallel universes across the Endless Frontier will also send killers or people with odd innate gifts to the Umbral Universe. That place is a death trap, despite there never being any news of major battles being fought there. Honestly...”

When the man hesitated for a moment, his twin took his place. "I would never want to go there."

"Even the most powerful peak powerhouses avoid that place!" Cang Bi said.

Lu Yin contemplated his options, as this was not an easy decision: the Big Stone Universe, or the Umbral Universe? It appeared that both would be difficult to deal with and very dangerous.

"If I were forced to choose one, I would recommend the Big Stone Universe," an elder said.

Cang Bi glared at the man. If you’re going to recommend one, then why don’t you recommend the Lilliput Universe!

Lu Yin felt that the Umbral Universe was too odd, and if there really were freaks like Cheng Kong in that universe, it would be dangerous even for him.

On the other hand, while the Big Stone Universe was definitely a battlefield with peak powerhouses, it would not be the first time that Lu Yin had faced such opponents. Even if things became dangerous, he could simply retreat if his opponent proved too difficult.

"Do you know which peak powerhouse from the Sixverse Association is supporting the Big Stone Universe?" Lu Yin asked.

"One of the Transcendent Universe’s largest bestowal art carriers is deployed there."

This caught Lu Yin off guard. The Transcendent Universe only had three of their largest class bestowal art carriers. One was in the Cloudflow Universe, and another was deployed at the Transcendent Universe’s own frontlines, suppressing the Aeternals and preventing them from invading the Transcendent Universe. As for the third one, was it actually in the Big Stone Universe?

"The situation in the Big Stone Universe is quite unique. The bestowal art carrier can release truly powerful attacks without having to suffer from that universe’s laws. It’s the only way to safely defend the Big Stone Universe," one of the twin elders explained.

The other continued, "However, it is far from easy to get a green light from the Big Stone Universe. While the bestowal art carrier’s attacks are powerful and deadly, it is not too difficult for the Aeternals to simply avoid the attacks.”

"Because we are an adjacent universe, we have been to the Big Stone Universe and have some knowledge of the place."

Lu Yin made his decision. "Then it’s time to head for the Big Stone Universe."

Cang Bi's face turned pale. "Lord Lu, what about me?"

Lu Yin glanced over at the man. "I don't need you any longer, so just stay put here."

Cang Bi let out a long breath, terribly relieved, and he quickly thanked Lu Yin. "Thank you, Lord Lu! Thank you!"
