What else did he say to you? "Hui Santong asked in a low voice as he stared into Lu Yin's eyes.
Lu Yin retracted his gaze from the distance and looked at Hui Santong. "We talked a lot. I was the one talking most of the time. He's very curious about the outside world and wants to come out, but he's very stubborn and won't come out until he finds out the truth."
Hui Santong lowered his head with a complicated expression.
Compared to the other heirs of the Seven Courts, Hui Santong knew much more. Not only did he know about the Hui family, but he also knew a lot about the other families as well.
The more he knew, the more he thought about things.
"I won't pursue the matter of the Giant Emperor any further. Draw down the location where you met Ancestor Hui Kong," Hui Santong said.
Lu Yin replied, "Sorry, I don't know anything about the Technocracy, so I can't draw it."
Hui Santong sighed and suddenly thought of something. He looked at Lu Yin seriously. "Are you under the Neohuman Alliance's control?"
Lu Yin had thought of this as well. "If I say that I'm not under their control, does the Seven Courts have a way to test it?"
Hui Santong shook his head. "Regardless, only the Hall of Honor can truly acknowledge you. Otherwise, even if we acknowledge you, you'll still be hunted down by the entire universe. You won't be able to survive like before."
Lu Yin also thought of this, and he looked at Crying Lady.
Her tone was indifferent. "Presiding Judge Muen is outside the Great Tomb. When the time comes, he can take you to the Glory Realm for a test. If you're really not under their control, then you'll be fine."
Lu Yin nodded and looked relieved, but he was actually very worried. Who knew what that black and white fog in his heart was? If they found out that he was being controlled, then no one would be able to explain themselves.
However, he had to be tested. Even Master Yuan and Everlasting Island would not be able to protect him. This was a matter of principle.
Ever since he had gone to the Eternal Kingdom, Lu Yin understood why the Hall of Honor had issued a kill order for the Neohuman Alliance. If it had been him, he would have issued a kill order as well.
However, the test was one thing; he could not put his life in the hands of others.
He had to think of a way to find someone; he did not want to be wrongly accused.
Of the nine directors of the Hall of Honor, one of them was from the Daynight clan, and there were others who were biased towards the Daynight clan. Lu Yin did not believe that those people had wrongly accused him.
"As for Ancestor Hui Kong, once we leave the Great Tomb, the head of the Hui family will naturally talk to you about it," Hui Santong said. He believed that Lu Yin had met Hui Kong, but he did not believe that the two were brothers. After all, the difference in age was too great. He thought for a moment and then added, "I hope that you haven't been controlled by the Neohuman Alliance."
Hui Santong flew off into the distance. Because of the Giant Emperor, all the guardian giants had been attracted to the blood pool. There would not be any guardian giants along the way. Moreover, they had the giant's blood on them to cover their smell. Everyone flew off into the distance.
Hui Santong left, followed by the Tearful Girl. Then, Lu Yin also followed.
Hui Santong noticed and turned to look at Lu Yin strangely. "Why are you following me?"
After saying that, he seemed to have thought of something, and his expression turned ugly. "What do you mean?"
Lu Yin laughed dryly. "I'm lost. Lead the way."
Hui Santong's eyes widened. "You want to follow me too?"
Lu Yin nodded and looked at the Tear Girl, who looked back at him.
Hui Santong was speechless. Why did everyone want to follow him? "What do you want?"
"The root of wisdom." Lu Yin did not hide his desire for the root of wisdom.
Hui Santong frowned. "We might not be able to find it, and it belongs to the Hui family.
It belongs to the Ancestor. "
"Don't say that. Ancestor Hui is also the ancestor of all humans. Whether or not we can find it will depend on luck." Lu Yin smiled. He really wanted to obtain the root of wisdom and then deduce the Overlaying Stacks Path. With his current physical strength, he could definitely deduce the Overlaying Stacks Path to a higher level. Then, he could use the Empty Palm, and its power would increase even more. One palm strike would definitely be enough to make someone like Xia Jiuyou, who had just broken through to the Enlighter realm, tremble.
Hui Santong was both helpless and amused. There had never been two people following him in history. It was almost impossible for outsiders to enter Progenitor Chen's Great Tomb, and only Burial Garden could. However, Burial Garden's understanding of Progenitor Chen's Great Tomb was no less than Hui Santong's, so they had never led the way before.
"Go ahead. You can't give up everything just because of the two of us, right?" Lu Yin asked. He was still a little worried.
Hui Santong looked at Lu Yin and then at Crying Lady. "I'm not looking for the root of wisdom." He then flew off into the distance.
Crying Lady frowned and glanced at Lu Yin with dissatisfaction.
Lu Yin had not expected Hui Santong to be so decisive. Since he had decided not to look for the root, Lu Yin could not persuade him otherwise. The main reason was that both he and Crying Lady were clearly stronger than Hui Santong. Even if they found the root, it would not belong to them. With Hui Santong's intelligence, it was impossible that he had not thought of it.
In that case, the place that they were heading to should be known by everyone.
Lu Yin had no way of changing Hui Santong's mind, so he could only follow silently.
Progenitor Chen's Great Tomb was indeed huge. After an hour, Hui Santong looked back and saw that Crying Lady and Lu Yin were still following him. He asked, "I heard that you were captured by one of the Seven Skygods, the Witch Spirit God. Where did they take you?"
"The Eternal Kingdom," Lu Yin replied.
Hui Santong paused and looked at Lu Yin in shock. "You were taken to the Eternal Kingdom?"
Crying Lady looked at Lu Yin in surprise as well, carefully sizing him up.
Lu Yin said, "Looks like you know. That's right, it's the Eternal Kingdom."
"Where is it?" Crying Lady asked.
Lu Yin shook his head. "I don't know. I only know that it's a folded space with seven dark inheritance towers that represent the Seven Skygods."
"To be honest, I don't believe that you were able to escape from the Eternal Kingdom, Lu Yin."
Lu Yin replied, "That's why I had to do a test. No one would believe me."
"What about the Eternal Kingdom?
I heard that it's a paradise created by the Neohuman Alliance, and they're researching how to make people immortal. "
Lu Yin's face sank. "That's hell, a place that should be destroyed if it's known."
Crying Lady did not say anything else, and neither did Hui Santong as they continued walking into the distance.
Not long after, waves of star energy rippled in front of them, and the three of them saw a black creature that looked like an enlarged earthworm rise up from the ground. It was at least a few thousand meters long, and there wasn't just one. There were dozens of these creatures rising up from the ground.
High up in the sky were Xie Xiaoxian and Shu Jing.
Hui Santong's gaze turned cold, but he had no intention of helping. He simply turned around.
Lu Yin curiously looked at the strange worms. "What are those?"
Hui Santong replied, "How does a person's body turn into bones after they die?"
Lu Yin suddenly recalled the ancient centipede's corpse that he had seen in the Northline Flowzone. There had been similar creatures there as well.
However, these creatures were even more powerful, as they had tried to devour Progenitor Chen's clone's corpse.
There were many of them, but they weren't very strong.
Shu Jing could cut through many of them, and Xie Xiaoxian could easily kill them all.
Crying Lady looked down and her pupils shrank. She saw that the ground was filled with these worms, and they looked rather disgusting.
To Progenitor Chen's clone, these worms were just parasites that could be found in a normal person's hair. However, they were too big for them.
"Since these worms have appeared, does that mean that we can reach Progenitor Chen's clone's corpse?" Lu Yin asked.
Hui Santong replied, "It's useless. These worms have no effect on Progenitor Chen's body. How can they turn it into bones? They're just parasites, and they can be considered a rare source of meat for the guardian giants."
"That's meat?" Lu Yin was surprised.
Hui Santong replied, "You can try it. It's said that it tastes pretty good."
Lu Yin was disgusted. "Have any of you tried it?"
Hui Santong didn't say anything and instead sped up.
Xie Xiaoxian and Shu Jing saw the three of them, especially Lu Yin. They raised their brows at this despicable bastard.
"Don't go!" Xie Xiaoxian shouted as she quickly chased after them.
Everyone who had entered Progenitor Chen's tomb left the blood pool and headed further away, except for one person: Ku Wei. Everyone seemed to have forgotten about him, and even he had forgotten about himself. He was now focused on hiding in the guardian giant's hair so that he wouldn't be discovered.
Ku Wei blinked as he crossed the broken city wall. No way, a civilization of giants had formed here?
He was clearly slower than everyone else, and if not for the guardian giant entering the city, he might not have known what was going on here.
The guardian giant was more like a beast than a human. It had no intelligence, and all of its actions were based on instinct. This guardian giant had been attracted to the blood pool and had slowly approached it.
There were many other guardians in the area, and they all circled around the blood pool before leaving.
For some reason, this guardian giant lowered its head and then buried its head into the blood pool. To it, this was just washing its face, but to Ku Wei, this was basically throwing him into the blood pool.
Ku Wei was caught off guard and fell into the blood pool. The moment he left the giant's hair, the guardian giant's eyes stared straight at him.
Even though the guardian giant relied on scent to find outsiders, they still had vision, and as long as they weren't too far away, they would be able to see. At this moment, Ku Wei and the guardian giant were staring at each other.
The guardian giant pressed one hand into the blood pool and grabbed at Ku Wei. It was as if Mount Tai was pressing down on him.
Ku Wei was startled, and he tapped out with a finger.
The giant's palm was too large, and Ku Wei was only able to break one of its fingers. However, the palm still managed to grab him, and the giant's strength almost crushed him to death. He couldn't help but open his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood. After that, even more blood entered his body. This was the giant's blood, and there was also the Giant Emperor's dark blood mixed in with a trace of Progenitor Chen's blood.
Progenitor Chen's blood was at the bottom of the blood pool, and it was being absorbed by Lu Yin. However, Progenitor Chen's blood had been in the blood pool for a long time, and there was a trace of it that had melted.
Ordinary people would not be able to detect it, and that trace of Progenitor Chen's blood did not exist. However, at this moment, Ku Wei had opened his mouth and drank a lot of the giant's blood, so he had naturally absorbed some of it as well.
The guardian giant scooped Ku Wei up from the blood pool and looked at him. It squeezed him a little more, and with a cruel gaze, it threw him out.
