Gu Xiao 'er had arrived at the eastern side of the Honorable State, and he was very pleased with himself. This was the Innerverse, and as a Neoverse expert, he naturally felt a sense of superiority.
Not long after, a fortune-teller appeared in front of him. He was dressed in plain gray robes, and there was a seal on his back. He held a picture of the starry sky in his hand and carried a wooden flag with the words "Starsibyl's Grandpa Jiu" engraved on the front and "Fortune Teller: Believe it or not." This fortune-teller was Xuan Jiu, and he had also rushed over.
Gu Xiao 'er looked at Xuan Jiu in amazement, especially when he saw the words on the flag. He walked over and blocked Xuan Jiu's path. "Are you Starsibyl's Grandpa Jiu?"
Xuan Jiu looked at Gu Xiaoer in astonishment. "Based on my calculations, kid, you're not from the Innerverse or Outerverse."
Gu Xiao 'er was surprised. "You divined it?"
The corner of Xuan Jiu's mouth curled up as he pretended to be unfathomable. "Naturally."
Gu Xiao 'er was surprised. "What else can he calculate?
Do the math. "
Xuan Jiu snorted coldly, "My fortune telling has revealed the secrets of the heavens. You think you can just do as you please?"
Just as Gu Xiao 'er was about to speak, a shout came from above his head. "Xuan Jiu, you're ruining the reputation of the sect. Come back with me."
The one who spoke was Starsibyl, and she had chased after Xuan Jiu.
Xuan Jiu cursed inwardly, "Granddaughter, this brat is here to propose marriage. Grandpa Jiu will help you find a suitable man."
Starsibyl raised an eyebrow and pressed down with her hand. A boundless amount of star energy surged forth, as if the heavens were collapsing and the earth was collapsing.
"Hey, what are you trying to do? I'm innocent."
"Jackals of the same tribe." Starsibyl's tone was icy as she mercilessly attacked.
Xuan Jiu slipped away quickly.
Starsibyl immediately chased after him.
Gu Xiaoer had been beaten up for no reason at all. Although he was not injured, he still felt aggrieved. His entire body had been pressed into the ground by Starsibyl's star energy.
When she finally crawled out, she heard Teao Kai's voice in the distance. "Little girl, look! This two-legged beast is sick. It likes to bury itself in the ground."
Gu Xiao Er was enraged. He turned around and saw a woman walking over. She had a 'hungry' sign on her head. What the hell was that?
Fish?
With a fish on his head?
Gu Xiaoer felt that he must have been hallucinating from Starsibyl's attacks.
The person who had come was Xi Qi, and she also wanted to participate in the competition. When she saw Gu Xiao Er staring at her in a daze, she gently asked, "Hey, are you alright?"
The fish opened its mouth and flapped its fins. "Stupid, why do you care about him?
This kind of two-legged beast isn't fit to be Lord Fish's mount. Hurry up and leave. Lord Fish will give you special training, and I guarantee that you'll be able to become a Sovereign. "
Xi Qi felt wronged. "Back then, you said that you could teach me sourcebox arrays, but you still haven't taught me anything."
"Stupid! Lord Fish's knowledge of sourcebox arrays is vast and unfathomable. He just needs to casually teach you a little bit, and you'll definitely benefit from it. I guarantee that you'll leave that Xiu Ming in the dust."
"Shh, don't talk nonsense. Master Xiu Tian will hear you."
"What's there to be afraid of? Lord Fish still wants to take him as a mount."
…
The girl and fish's conversation drifted further and further away. Gu Xiao Er listened in a daze and rubbed his eyes. He had been beaten up as soon as he had arrived in the Innerverse, and now, he had heard a fish say that it wanted to take him as a mount. He felt that his entire life was not good.
In the distance, Tian Hou walked out from the white skeleton of the Astral Beast Domain and gazed at Mount Supreme. It had been ten years since he had last been here, and he wondered if he would meet that person again. As he thought about it, Lu Yin's figure appeared in his mind. Even though there were many powerhouses participating in the competition, Tian Hou was most concerned about Lu Yin.
One of the five Pass Lords?
He was on the same level as Crown Prince Yao Xuan, and the gap between them was huge. However, Tian Hou's existence was strange, and even powerhouses who far surpassed him might not be able to defeat him.
And in the Astral Beast Domain, there was more than one strange existence like Tian Hou.
The Supreme Tournament in Outer Space gathered the younger generation's true experts from the Fifth and Sixth Mainlands. Thousands of streams would eventually flow into the sea, and the only Sovereign would eventually be born.
One powerhouse after another approached Mount Supreme.
A day later, Lu Yin's spacecraft arrived outside Mount Supreme.
Looking at the majestic Mount Supreme in the distance that almost split the universe apart, everyone was shocked.
Lu Yin had seen the Glory Realm before, but Mount Supreme still shocked him. It had nothing to do with its size or location, but rather its significance. Mount Supreme represented the peak of the current generation.
He looked at the highest point of Mount Supreme. Only by standing there could one be considered invincible among their peers.
Shaking off Ku Wei and the others, Lu Yin disguised himself and left by himself. He didn't want to be followed everywhere he went.
There were many planets surrounding Mount Supreme, and on one of them, Lu Yin was quietly drinking wine while listening to the discussions around him.
All sorts of rankings had been made. Aside from the most famous Predicted Top Ten, there was also a Genius Ranking, a Beauty Ranking, a Most Difficult Opponent Ranking, and so on. Lu Yin heard all sorts of rankings.
His name often appeared on these rankings, as he was just too famous. The people of the Neoverse didn't recognize the powerhouses of the Outerverse, and the people of the Outerverse didn't recognize the powerhouses of the Neoverse. However, these people all recognized Lu Yin.
Lu Yin sighed. It wasn't good to be too famous.
With a bang, an argument broke out not far away, and a fight broke out nearby.
The disciples of the Sword Sect and Sirius Sect were fighting, and neither side was willing to back down. The Sword Sect wasn't afraid of the behemoths of the Neoverse, but the Sirius Sect's disciples always felt superior to those of the Innerverse. Qiu Shi's ranking on the Predicted Top Ten had surpassed Liu Tianmu's, which made them even more proud.
The restaurant was quickly destroyed by the disciples from both sides.
Lu Yin didn't interfere, as he would go somewhere else if this place was gone.
He hadn't gone far when he saw two figures, one black and one white, flash by. It was rather funny; they were Xiao Bai and Little Black, and the two girls were laughing as they ran away.
Behind Xiao Bai was Qian Zou, whom Lu Yin had met a few times. Lu Yin hadn't expected this person to be involved with Xiao Bai and Little Black again, and it seemed like he wasn't too willing.
"Little ancestor, let's return the item. That person isn't to be trifled with. He's a ruthless person on the Predicted Top Ten," Qian Zou wailed as he chased after Xiao Bai.
"Haha, idiot, you'll get beaten up if you give it to him. Isn't that fun? Let's run, the bad guy's coming!" Xiao Bai laughed.
Xiao Hei was very serious. "Stop laughing, Xiao Bai. We're going to get beaten up."
Xiao Bai smiled slyly. "That's right, we can't get beaten up. Let's speed up." The two girls then sped up once more.
Qian Zou wanted to cry, but no tears came out. This had nothing to do with him, but he had been implicated. The one who had vomited blood was the one who had taken the item, not him.
Not far behind the three, Wu Dan was furious. "Damn brats, hand it over!" Just a few days ago, the two brats had colluded with a bastard who deserved a beating to steal his pills. Those were healing pills that he had obtained from Master Xiu Tianshi, and he had prepared them specifically for this year's Sovereign Tournament. How preposterous!
Lu Yin was speechless. This was the case in the Mountain and Sea Realm, and now it was the same in the Sovereign Tournament. Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai were too good at causing trouble, and they had even implicated this bastard.
Lu Yin did not make a move and allowed Wu Dan to chase after the three. In any case, nothing would happen. The fact that the two brats were here meant that someone from Everlasting Island had delivered the pills. Either that person was a Highsage, Shen Wei, or an Unrivaled Highsage. Either way, nothing would happen.
The older powerhouses had all distanced themselves from Mount Supreme as much as possible, creating a relatively fair environment for the competition.
Lu Yin strolled around the mountain alone and saw many things, many of which were related to him.
The Great Eastern Alliance's invasion of the Innerverse's interests had caused many Innerverse experts to view them with hostility, which had led to many conflicts.
There were also some familiar faces who had run into trouble. For example, he had seen Ku Wei provoking Ku Lei and being chased down. He had also seen Starsibyl chasing after Xuan Jiu, but he did not care about any of these things.
The Sovereign Tournament was right around the corner, and everyone would restrain themselves and conserve all of their energy for the tournament. No one would act without thinking about the consequences.
Furthermore, when he looked up at the sky, he saw an unimaginably large number of rune lines covering the area around Mount Supreme. These rune lines came from powerhouses who had surpassed the Emissary level, and their existence ensured that the Sovereign Tournament would proceed normally.
The Sovereign Tournament was different from the competition between the Mountain and Sea Realm's Five Astral Scions. This was a true competition, and no one knew how many experts the Hall of Honor had sent. Even Master Yuan was not far from the west. Unless the Neohuman Alliance wanted to start a war with both continents, they would not cause any trouble.
More importantly, Mount Supreme was not far from the Starfall Sea, and the Three Progenitors were there. The might of a Progenitor was unfathomable, and with the Three Progenitors by their side, even the Seven Skygods would be useless.
A few days later, Lu Yin ran into a familiar face who was also strolling around: Mr. Bai.
On a certain planet, the two stood facing each other atop a waterfall.
Mr. Bai was still as carefree as ever, as if nothing had anything to do with him. "Brother Deafmute, no, Brother Lu, long time no see."
Lu Yin smiled. "Mr. Bai, no, Brother Wu, long time no see."
"There's a saying that a scholar who has been away for three days must be looked at with new eyes. Brother Lu, you're not just looking at me with new eyes." Mr. Bai smiled.
Lu Yin shrugged. "There's also a saying that goes like this. I've interacted with Brother Wu before, and even though we're not that far apart, I still can't see Brother Wu clearly."
Mr. Bai smiled and stepped onto the waterfall. Across from him, Lu Yin approached step by step. The two were separated by a meter at the center of the waterfall, and an invisible force collided between them. There was clearly no shocking scene, nor was there any intense confrontation, but the waterfall split apart. Following that, the ground, mountains, rivers, and even the planet's cities all split apart.
No one on the planet knew what was happening, and even the Enlighter who had moved the planet to this place was confused. They could not find the source of the force that had split apart the planet.
Fortunately, the collision of forces only lasted for an instant, and the waterfall merged back together. However, because the earth had split apart, the water flowed towards the planet's core, and waves of heat dissipated into white smoke.
Mr. Bai laughed. "Brother Lu, it's always lonely to play alone. Why don't we go together?"
Lu Yin nodded. "Please, Brother Wu. It's indeed boring to be alone."
"Please."
Although the collision just now had only been a test, the two of them had gained some understanding of each other.
Lu Yin did not know what Wu Taibai was thinking, but Lu Yin felt an unprecedented sense of apprehension towards him. This leisurely Daosource Three Skies had actually made him feel threatened. With his current strength, it was not easy to make him feel threatened. At the very least, not even Xia Jiuyou had been able to do so in Progenitor Chen's tomb. There were also the ghouls, and although they were powerful, they had not been able to make him feel threatened.
