In the Sirius Sect, Hua Xiao and Mu Ziying sat across from each other, their expressions downcast. After the Sixth Mainland's invasion, their former pride had been destroyed. It wasn't because of the Sixth Mainland, but because of the Innerverse's Ten Arbiters.
In their eyes, the Innerverse was a barren land of resources, but those ten monsters had appeared.
"Eldest Senior Sister didn't gain any advantage either. The birth of the Ten Arbiters was a stroke of fate that never happened before and never will happen again. We can only say that we were unlucky to be born in the same era as those monsters," Hua Xiao said helplessly.
Mu Ziying looked up. "You're underestimating Eldest Senior Sister. She's known as the Four Ultimate Beauties, but she's never been serious about anyone."
Hua Xiao frowned. "Actually, I've always been curious. Who gave her the title of Four Ultimate Beauties?
You and I have never met before. "
Mu Ziying shook her head. "I don't know."
At that moment, there was a ding, and the two looked at their gadgets at the same time. They then looked at each other in shock. "The Star Tower contest is about to begin. This time, it's different from the past. The Innerverse's Ten Arbiters and Titled Kings can all participate, especially Nightking Zhenwu, who monopolized one of the inheritances. We can only fight for the remaining four inheritances."
Hua Xiao smiled bitterly. "I never thought that there would be a day where we would be trampled on. Nightking Zhenwu has hidden himself too well. It's just a pity that Lu Yin is a genius. He was able to injure the Daosource Three Skies as a Cruiser. He's the only one who's done that in the entire campaign."
"Don't worry about him. There's no need to talk about the dead. We'll be working together this time."
"Of course. Right, do you want to discuss this with Eldest Senior Sister?"
"Forget it. Eldest Senior Sister won't join us."
…
In a certain region of the Innerverse, an ancient warship lay in space. This was Astral-10.
During the Sixth Mainland's invasion, the Astral Combat Academy had displayed an incomparably terrifying strength. Although Astral-10 had the fewest mentors and students, the crazy headmaster had caused a huge commotion.
On this day, a woman arrived at Astral-10 to look for Xia Luo.
At Astral-10's space station, Xia Luo looked at the woman in front of him. "I guessed that you would come looking for me."
Standing in front of Xia Luo was Starsibyl, but not the same generation as the Ten Arbiters. Instead, she was the leader of the Astral Academy, who had participated in the Astral Combat Tournament.
"The contest for the Star Tower is about to begin. You should be going back, right?" Starsibyl asked.
Xia Luo smiled. "Of course. After waiting for so long, it's finally about to begin."
"The Sixth Mainland is invading, and your classmate Lu Yin is famous throughout the universe," Starsibyl said.
Xia Luo sighed. "He's too high-profile. Arbiter Zhenwu is meticulous and vicious, so there's no way he'll let him live. However, I never thought that Nightking Zhenwu wouldn't even spare his reputation. It looks like he's planning on intimidating the Innerverse with this and paving the way for him to become the head of the Ten Arbiters. Is that what you want?"
Starsibyl's eyes flickered. "I don't really have any expectations. I'm just going with the flow. The Innerverse needs a leader after all."
Xia Luo smiled. "If you say so, then so be it."
Starsibyl looked at Xia Luo, and her eyes grew brighter. "I can feel your fighting spirit. The Sixth Mainland has invaded, and the stars are shining brightly. Lu Yin's name has spread throughout the universe, and he's battling the Daosource Three Skies. It seems like you can't sit still any longer."
Xia Luo stretched his back lazily. "That's right. You stopped singing and I went up on stage. It's time for us to make a move. You, me, the Three Dark Hands, the Hall of Honor on the surface, Mavis and the others to make a move.
Although this war is a farce, the Sea King did one thing right and restored our skies. Otherwise, who knows how long it would have taken for us to truly make a move? "
Starsibyl had a strange look in her eyes. "We've already waited for so many years, so it doesn't matter if we wait a little longer. However, now is the time." She then turned to leave, but before she left, she suddenly asked, "If it's possible, will you take revenge for Lu Yin?"
Xia Luo's eyes trembled. "I'll give it a try."
Starsibyl's eyes flashed, and she left Astral-10.
Xia Luo retracted his gaze and sank into deep thought. This generation was different from the past. The birth of the Ten Arbiters had given the Innerverse the ability to compete with the Neoverse. Even Xia Luo could not say that he could suppress the Ten Arbiters. The Neoverse had its own plans for the future, and so did the Innerverse. Otherwise, the Ten Arbiters would not have been born.
Lu Yin looked out into space, and the future seemed to have changed. Although he did not know too many secrets, he had a feeling that the Innerverse had already broken away from the Neoverse's control. The appearance of the Ten Arbiters was the best example, and all of this definitely had something to do with the Starsibyl Sect.
Xia Luo sighed and looked back at Astral-10. He then lifted his foot and left. This time, he might never return.
On the other side, in the Technocracy, Lu Yin helplessly put away his die. He had used up all of his uses and could not roll Enhance. He could not find his way back to the Outerverse for the time being.
The Technocracy was strictly monitored, and no one could trespass. This planet was very close to Dolon, so he could walk around for a bit. However, if he strayed too far away, he might be discovered and be hunted down by the Technocracy's experts.
It seemed that he could only wait for his next die roll or force his way in.
However, even if he wanted to force his way in, he had to figure out the direction first. Otherwise, he would only get deeper and deeper.
There were Envoy-level powerhouses in the Technocracy, and any one of them would be enough to kill him.
For safety's sake, he put on his universal armor first.
Circulating the Arcane Art of Life and Death allowed his injuries to recover significantly. Lu Yin decided to wait for a month. If he did not roll Enhance by then and found the star chart, then he would head north. That should be the right direction.
A few days later, while Lu Yin was recuperating and silently reciting the Stonewall Scriptures, a vast amount of star energy swept past him like a violent hurricane that almost overturned the heavens. The planet that Lu Yin was on shook a few times, and the cyclones and poisonous gas on the planet's surface were directly dispersed. This allowed Lu Yin to clearly see the heavens for the first time on this planet, and he also saw a figure rushing towards the east.
There were no rune lines in the Technocracy, so Lu Yin did not know how strong this person was. However, he was certain that this person had a terrifying strength that far exceeded his own. Just the star energy pressure caused by this person's speed alone was not something that Lu Yin could withstand.
Lu Yin did not dare to reveal himself and obediently stayed on the planet. That person might be a powerhouse from the Technocracy, or at least an Envoy-level powerhouse.
Not long after, the cyclones on the planet returned to normal, and the planet returned to its original state.
Lu Yin sat down cross-legged and was about to continue reciting the Stonewall Scriptures when he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He turned around and saw a pair of eyes staring at him that were filled with joy and surprise.
The eyes belonged to a bald old man. His clothes were tattered, and it was obvious that he had worn them for many years.
Lu Yin's face paled, and he retreated several steps as he stared at the old man warily. He suddenly thought of Driftcharge Planet and the group of cannibalistic slaves.
The old man grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth. "Don't be afraid, kid. Come, come to Grandpa Hui."
Lu Yin's entire body tensed up, and five chains appeared in his hands.
His power level of 300,000 was still not enough. He immediately took out his Owl Arrows and War Arrows, as well as his futon. He was prepared to flee at any moment.
The people from the Sixth Mainland could use their futons to enter the Daosource Sect's ruins, which meant that the Fifth Mainland's Daosource Sect's ruins were not restricted by region. Right, after the Bloodburn Realm had invaded the Outerverse, Huang San and Yan Xiaojing had also entered the Daosource Sect's ruins, and Lu Yin had knocked them unconscious. The two of them should have been in the Technocracy at the time.
The Technocracy could enter the Daosource Sect's ruins.
When the bald old man saw Lu Yin take out so many things, he bared his teeth. "What are you afraid of, kid? Grandpa Hui doesn't eat people."
Lu Yin became even more afraid when he heard this, and he retreated a few more steps.
"Hahahaha, kid, you're really interesting. Come, come, come, come to Grandpa Hui. Grandpa Hui won't hurt you, but no one has spoken to me in many years. All that's left are mechanical puppets or those lunatics whose brains are filled with technology. With you here, Grandpa Hui won't be lonely anymore."
Lu Yin's scalp went numb, and the monkey's voice rang out. "Seventh Bro, it's over. That old fart."
"S-Senior, this junior unintentionally passed by and disturbed senior's cultivation. This junior will leave now, and he won't dare to disturb senior again." Lu Yin leaped up and tried to tear through the void to leave.
However, he was unable to tear through the void. Even with his current strength that rivaled an Enlighter's, he was still unable to do so. This was because the void had been locked down by the bald old man. The old man had used star energy, or rather, the power of a powerhouse at the Emissary level or above to lock down the void, preventing Lu Yin from escaping.
Lu Yin's face was pale, and beads of sweat dripped down his forehead as he stared at the old man warily.
The old man helplessly scratched his head. "Kid, you're too timid. What are you afraid of? Grandpa won't hurt you. Come, talk to Grandpa." He then waved at Lu Yin again, and this time, Lu Yin's body was pulled over uncontrollably. He tried to resist, but it was useless.
The old man was astonished. "Kid, your physical fitness isn't bad. It's rare for a five-cycle Cruiser to have such a physique. Bzzt, bzzt. Your star energy reserves are also enormous. Kid, who's your master?"
Lu Yin was pulled over to the old man's side, and he didn't even dare to move. When he heard the old man's question, he subconsciously answered, "It's Master Yuan, a powerhouse with a power level of a million from the Hall of Honor."
Lu Yin couldn't bring himself to say Mister Mu, as he didn't know if this old man even knew him. However, Master Yuan was different, and anyone who had lived for a long time should know who he was. Master Yuan also had a good reputation, and he might have even taught this old man before. Master Yuan's disciples could be found throughout the universe.
The old man was astonished. "Master Yuan?
Your master is that Master Yuan from the Hall of Honor? "
Lu Yin looked into the old man's eyes, but there was no hatred in them, only surprise. "That's right, it's Master Yuan."
The old man grunted. "You can be considered an old friend. Don't worry, kid, Grandpa doesn't plan on harming you. If I really wanted to, even your master wouldn't be able to do anything to you."
Lu Yin's face changed, as the old man's meaning couldn't be any clearer. This old man was definitely a powerhouse with a power level of over a million.
How could he have met such a freak?
"Kid, are you from the Hall of Honor?" the old man asked.
Lu Yin obediently answered, "This junior is Fazi from the Hall of Honor."
The bald old man grunted in acknowledgment. "Although the Hall of Honor is a hypocrite, it's still the best of the Human Domain. Every generation's Fazi is the strongest of their generation, and you're even more amazing, kid. For a Cruiser to have your strength, even Grandpa has to praise you."
