When he heard Lu Yin's words, Elder Big Drum hurriedly stopped him. "Alliance Leader Lu, you're making things difficult for me."
Lu Yin replied, "I'm just taking a look. If Elder Big Drum isn't willing to hand it over, then I won't force you. How about it?"
Elder Big Drum was helpless. "Alright, since Alliance Master Lu insists, then please."
Lu Yin nodded. "Thank you." He then put the metal arm back into his cosmic ring and continued his tour.
Not long after, he took a fancy to a very ordinary one-sided mirror. It looked like a normal mirror, but this one-sided mirror had a combat power of 50,000 rune lines, and it was a rare treasure.
Elder Bigu did not care too much about this mirror, as it did not have much use. It could only forcibly absorb star energy from a certain area, and if used well, it could even break through an enemy's battle techniques. However, it could only affect Explorers, and it was not very useful in a border war.
Lu Yin had taken it away, but Elder Big Drum did not mind.
It was a very thin paper bomb about the size of a fingernail. Its power was close to 50,000, and its rune lines weren't too far away from the mirror.
Elder Dagu was a little concerned about this. "This is called the Silent Cannon, and it's quite useful on the battlefield. It's very secretive, and it can be used to bombard an area of effect. Unfortunately, there are only about twenty of them left, so I don't mind giving them to you."
"Who made this?"
Lu Yin was curious. To be able to compress the explosive power of a Cruiser's attack onto a piece of paper the size of a fingernail showed that this person was very talented.
Elder Dagu shook his head. "It originated from ancient technology. When we first discovered it, there were hundreds of thousands of them, and they helped us destroy many of the Technocracy's small machines. But now, there are only twenty or so left, and they aren't very useful."
"You've never thought of replicating it?"
"I've been trying to copy it, but there hasn't been any results yet. If Alliance Master Lu likes it, then take it," Elder Big Drum said. In any case, it wasn't anything useful, and Cruiser level items weren't even worth his attention.
Lu Yin did not stand on ceremony and took it away. However, as soon as he was done, he looked in a certain direction with a profound expression.
Elder Big Drum was now afraid, as Lu Yin was continuously taking things away. Although they weren't that important, it wouldn't be good if there were too many of them. He hurriedly urged Lu Yin to leave.
"Seventh Bro, there's something here that I can use," the monkey suddenly said.
Lu Yin's eyes flashed. "What is it?"
The monkey hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, "Blood. The blood of a Half-Martial Ancestor."
Lu Yin took a deep breath and stopped where he was. He then looked at Elder Big Drum. "Elder, is there any Half-Progenitor blood here?"
Elder Da Gu's pupils shrank. "Alliance Master Lu, the Half-Progenitor blood was provided by Master Yuan. You can't give it to anyone else."
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed. "Is there really Half-Progenitor blood?"
Elder Big Drum hesitated for a moment before nodding solemnly. "That's right."
Lu Yin muttered to himself.
The monkey grew anxious. "Seventh Bro, as long as you give me some Half-Progenitor blood, I'll be able to become a Hunter, which will be of great help to you. We astral beasts don't rely on slowly absorbing star energy to increase our strength, but rather on our innate gifts. As long as my Ghost Monkey bloodline can absorb some Half-Progenitor blood, our strength will immediately soar."
With the monkey's status as the Spiritual Academy's Academy Master, increasing his strength to the Hunter realm would be enough to threaten the Ten Arbiters, which would indeed be of great help.
However, Lu Yin did not believe the monkey's words. What kind of level was a Half-Progenitor? Even if they could not reach the Progenitor realm, they had already surpassed the Heavenly Imprint and might even be on the same level as the Heavenly Imprint. Lu Yin was not sure, but he was certain that no matter how powerful the Ghost Monkey bloodline was, it was impossible for them to rely on Half-Progenitor blood to cultivate. Where would they get Half-Progenitor blood for their bloodline to cultivate?
"Seventh Bro, trust me. As long as I can become a Hunter, I can definitely bring you to Progenitor Wushang's tomb and let you obtain his inheritance," the monkey said anxiously.
Lu Yin ignored him, as he had never felt at ease with the monkey. Back then, the monkey had not been as strong as Lu Yin, but it knew many secrets, including the secrets of the Seven Courts. That damned monkey must have hidden many things from him.
The monkey felt helpless. "Seventh Bro, you and I are one, so how can I harm you?
Besides, I won't be able to threaten you even if I become a Hunter. "
Lu Yin paused and then looked at Elder Big Drum. "Elder, can you really not give me the Half-Progenitor blood?"
Elder Big Drum smiled bitterly. "You'll have to request it from Master Yuan."
"The blood of a Half-Progenitor isn't something from the Progenitor realm. Is it that important?" Lu Yin did not believe him.
Elder Big Drum replied, "At our level, we won't be able to come into contact with the specifics, but there's one thing that's clear: the word 'progenitor' itself has undergone a change."
Lu Yin's eyes suddenly trembled, and he said to the monkey, "I'll find you some Emissary blood."
"No, it must be the blood of a Half-Progenitor," the monkey said firmly.
"Then it'll be a powerhouse with a power level of a million, or even at the level of a Celestial Imprint."
"Seventh Bro, it must be the blood of a Half-Progenitor."
Lu Yin frowned. Half-Progenitor was related to the word 'progenitor'. Was the damned monkey's cultivation related to that word?
The word 'progenitor' represented a qualitative change, and the damned monkey was only an Explorer. How could he be related to the word 'progenitor'?
Lu Yin could not figure it out.
Lu Yin would definitely not be able to obtain the blood of a Half-Progenitor, so under Elder Big Drum's guidance, the two left the planet.
The monkey could only sigh.
After leaving the planet, Elder Big Drum finally relaxed. When he looked back, he realized that Lu Yin's harvest had been quite bountiful. Aside from the twenty million star essence, he had also obtained the metal right arm, the one-sided mirror, and the Smothered Cannon. If he had allowed Lu Yin to stay for a while longer, who knew what he would have taken away?
Lu Yin was very grateful to Elder Big Drum, and he even mentioned that he wanted to take a look at the warehouse. This gave Elder Big Drum a fright, and the two quickly parted ways.
Lu Yin was not satisfied, but he knew that it was unlikely that he would be able to get anything else from Elder Big Drum.
He was already satisfied that he had obtained so many things.
"Monkey, can you absorb the blood of a Half-Progenitor with your ability?" Lu Yin asked.
Perhaps it was because they had left the planet, but the monkey no longer had the temptation of the blood. His tone returned to normal, and he was no longer as impatient as before. "Actually, the stronger the blood that my Ghost Monkey bloodline absorbs, the better. I said that I must absorb the blood of a Half-Progenitor because I hoped that Seventh Bro would be able to help me obtain it. Since you can't, then forget it.
Lu Yin smiled and changed his words. Interesting. He would have to investigate the Ghost Monkey bloodline.
After bidding farewell to Master Yuan, Lu Yin left the Southern Weave.
On his spacecraft, Lu Yin fiddled with the one-sided mirror. It could forcefully absorb the surrounding star energy and disrupt an enemy's battle techniques and techniques. It was too useful.
Of course, it might not be of much use to others, but he could improve it. If he could become an Enlighter, then Hunters would be useless against him.
Lu Yin hoped that the mirror's material would be of better quality so that he could become a threat to Envoys.
No, that wasn't right. Envoys did not seem to use star energy.
Lu Yin had just left the Southern Weave when someone stopped him. It was Elder He from the Sea King's Dome.
Lu Yin walked out of the spacecraft. "Elder He, are you stopping me because you want to ask about the Sea King's situation?"
Elder He looked at Lu Yin expectantly. "Does Alliance Master Lu know?"
Lu Yin shook his head. "Sorry, I don't know."
Elder He was disappointed.
"However, according to my guess, the Sea King might not be dead," Lu Yin said.
Elder He was not surprised. "After the battle in the astral cemetery, we already know that the Sea King is not dead. We just don't know where he is."
"Sorry, I don't know."
Elder He left in disappointment.
The closer he got to the truth of the Sixth Mainland's invasion, the more Lu Yin did not know how to evaluate the Sea King.
There was no doubt that the Sea King was courageous. The Fifth Mainland's sky had been covered by the Sixth Mainland, which had eliminated the possibility of a Progenitor being born. The Sea King knew this, which was why he had risked his life to break through the Three Upper Gates and the Sixth Mainland's sky. However, this had also led to the Sixth Mainland's invasion, which had led to countless deaths.
From the start, the Sea King was good and courageous, and he had even surpassed the Hall of Honor. However, after the battle in the Cosmic Sea, Lu Yin felt that the Fifth Mainland was not as simple as it seemed. Elder Yu and Brother Hui Kong had both mentioned that the Fifth Mainland was hiding very deeply. Neither the Hall of Honor nor the Three Dark Hands had made a move. With Lu Yin's current status and way of thinking, he could only think of one possibility: the Neoverse was hiding something.
He did not know what the Neoverse was planning, but he was certain that they were not necessarily afraid of the Sixth Mainland's all-out attack. In other words, the Sixth Mainland had covered the Fifth Mainland's sky, and it was not impossible for them to break through it.
If Lu Yin's guess was correct, then the Sea King's actions had been reckless, and he had disrupted some of his plans.
Of course, all of this was just a guess. Perhaps the Three Dark Hands were like the Neohuman Alliance and did not care about the war between the two mainlands, or perhaps the Hall of Honor had already made a move. Lu Yin was only a Cruiser, so he had no way of knowing the truth.
From Lu Yin's perspective, even if his guess was correct, many of the people who had set up the plan would curse the Sea King. However, Lu Yin still felt a trace of admiration for the Sea King. The Sea King had single-handedly turned the Fifth Mainland's sky around. No matter what the outcome was, his courage was unparalleled, and he had the courage to surpass countless people.
History would judge the merits and demerits of the Sixth Mainland, but for the time being, the results were good. At least the Sixth Mainland had retreated after suffering heavy losses. However, if they could launch the first attack, then there would be a second and third. The Sixth Mainland would not give up, and the interval between attacks would not be long.
Lu Yin had originally wanted to return to Zenyu Star, but he suddenly thought of the Phineas family, which was not too far away.
The Phineas family, the Dark Phoenix Clan … Lu Yin muttered to himself for a moment before turning around to take a look.
The Phineas family was located on the Blackflame Continent, which had originally been located in the Endless Weave. After the battle at the border, Mister Mu had moved the entire border, and the Blackflame Continent had also been moved to the Southern Weave.
The Blackflame Continent was not too far from the border of the Southern Weave, and it only took Lu Yin ten minutes to reach it on his collapsible spacecraft.
Lu Yin's eyes blazed as he stared at the black flames that burned the heavens. Had this been prepared for him?
The Blackflame Continent was just a name, and it was not as if the entire continent was covered in flames. However, what appeared in front of Lu Yin's eyes were actually burning black flames that enveloped the entire Blackflame Continent.
The void in front of him distorted, and a middle-aged man walked out. "Guest, please wait. The Dark Phoenix Clan has been sealed away for a hundred years. We decline any visitors."
Lu Yin walked out of outer space and put away his collapsible spacecraft. He then looked at the middle-aged man. "Please report that the Great Eastern Alliance's Alliance Master, Lu Yin, has come to visit."
The middle-aged man was shocked. "You- you're Lu Yin?"
Lu Yin's lips curled up. "That's right."
