The little mountain god had been one step behind the Ten Arbiters. In the Outerverse, he still couldn't compare to the Ten Arbiters in terms of strength.
He still wasn't aware of the disparity between them.
"Petrification Technique!" the little mountain god growled. The stones on his body trembled, and his enormous body rapidly shrank as if they were melting. The smaller they became, the more rune lines they could produce.
Lu Yin was shocked. Was he absorbing stones?
There was such a technique?
Interesting.
The little mountain god eventually shrank to five meters tall and could not shrink any further. At this moment, his rune lines had caught up to Lan Si, who had broken through to the Enlighter realm, and he was now on par with the Ten Arbiters.
With a whoosh, the little mountain god attacked Lu Yin with a palm.
Lu Yin looked up. "Not a bad battle technique, but it's a pity that your path has come to an end." He didn't seem to move, but the little mountain god's five-meter-tall body was sent flying and crashed into the cave wall, causing it to cave in.
The little mountain god's eyes almost popped out of their sockets as rocks continuously fell from his body. Finally, he reverted to a round stone that rolled to the ground.
This was the Emptiness Palm, and Lu Yin had used it to defeat the little mountain god. The little mountain god's strength was not bad, and he could be considered one of the top hundred — no, top fifty — or even top thirty, but he had been unlucky.
Outside Mount Supreme, the people from the Beast Tamers Flowzone sighed, as they had still been defeated by Lu Yin. There was nothing they could do about it.
In the Beast Tamers Flowzone, in the Divine Grade Hall, the Mountain God was helpless. When the little mountain god had first met Lu Yin, he had still held onto some hope, but he had still been defeated in the end. He stared at the screen, hoping that Lu Yin would not be too harsh on the little mountain god.
Within Mount Supreme's cave, the little mountain god wobbled as he tried to fly up, but it was no use. The round stone's surface was already starting to crack.
Lu Yin looked down at him. "Remember, if I can suppress you now, I can suppress you forever."
The little mountain god gritted his teeth, but he didn't retort. In this situation, he was still very tactful.
Lu Yin was the victor without any suspense, and he looked up at the screen.
At this moment, many of the battlefields on the screen were particularly eye-catching, and his was one of them. Other than that, the most popular battlefields were Sirius Sect's Yan Kun against Wang Yi, Seven Courts' You Qin against Arbiter Liu Tianmu, and Sirius Sect's Mu Ziying against the Astral Beast Domain's Star Devourer.
Just like Lu Yin, when the match started and everyone was able to move, they all attacked Wang Yi.
Lu Yin hadn't seen the beginning of the battle, and when he looked up at the screen, he only saw Yan Kun fall while Wang Yi remained in his original position.
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed. This Wang Yi had caught his attention, not only because of his strength, but also because of his surname.
The primeval surnames were a mystery to the Fifth Mainland.
Even with his current background and status, he didn't dare to investigate recklessly. After all, he himself had a primeval surname.
The fact that it could cause the entire Fifth Mainland to be disgusted showed that it was no small matter.
The Technocracy actually had people with the primeval surname. Could it be that the primeval surnames all came from the Technocracy?
Then, was his background also related to the Technocracy?
On the other side of the arena, sword qi swept out and caused the competitors to fall one by one. No one was able to stand under Liu Tianmu's sword qi.
Only You Qin remained standing a hundred meters away from Liu Tianmu with a solemn expression. She looked like a black rose, and the bottom of her feet was covered in a thick layer of ice.
Only You Qin was left in the arena to fight against Liu Tianmu.

As a descendant of the You Family from the Seven Courts, You Qin's strength was disappointing. In just a few moments, blood flowed from her abdomen, and the blade in her hand broke. She had no choice but to be defeated.
Many in the Neoverse were in an uproar. Was the Seven Courts' descendant really that weak?
First, Ku Lei had been sent flying by the Star Devourer's tail, and now, You Qin had been defeated by someone from the Innerverse. The Seven Courts had truly declined.
Lu Yin looked at You Qin, who had fallen to the ground unwillingly, and shook his head. The You Family's true descendant was Yōu Ye'er, and the You Family's secret technique was in her hands. That woman was the true descendant of the Seven Courts, and she should be the most well-hidden descendant of the Seven Courts.
No, wait. Lu Yin suddenly thought of Undying Yushan. If he really wasn't dead, then he was the most well-hidden. Even his own family's elders did not know what he was up to.
Undying Yushan had always been a thorn in Lu Yin's side. The more time passed, the more likely it was that he was still alive. He had also guessed that the spiritual force that he had absorbed from Liuying Zishan's body might have something to do with Undying Yushan. Of course, this was just a guess.
Within a small bush, a little girl who looked to be about ten years old raised her head to look at the screen. Around her, there were contestants lying on the ground. She had won. She was the only victor among the hundred contestants. She was Yōu Ye'er.
When she saw You Qin's unresigned expression, she muttered to herself, "There's no need to think too much. This is fate."
In another arena, You Weep looked up at the screen and then lowered her head again. No one knew what she was thinking.
Mu Ziying had been defeated without any suspense. Even though he had the innate gift of wood transformation and had extremely high defenses that were on par with the Ten Arbiters', he had still encountered the Star Devourer.
Everyone had attacked him, but they had all been crushed in the end. Nearly half of them had been reduced to a puddle of blood. Mu Ziying had been lucky and had not died, but he had been half-crippled.
Mo Jiangxiao had encountered the Prime Clear, and there was no suspense. The flow of energy had not transformed into Progenitor Chen, and all the other participants had been eliminated.
Lulu Mavis, Kuang Wang, Long Yun, and the others had all been defeated without any suspense.
Michelle had also been defeated by the Xiaoye King.
She looked up at the screen and glanced at Wen Sansi before looking at Lu Yin. They had once been classmates, but now, the gap between them was so great that it was almost invisible.
There was one person who had been defeated that Lu Yin had not expected: Zhuo Daynight.
She had actually been defeated, which was something that Lu Yin had not expected.
There were no famous powerhouses among the hundred people in her arena, and she had even grasped Night's End, Daybreak. Even Nightking Zhenwu had been caught off guard by her technique. Her illusions could even affect 300,000 to 400,000 Enlighters, but she had still been defeated in the end.
The person who had defeated her had a very strange name: 007. That was the name of that participant.
Lu Yin looked at 007 and narrowed his eyes. This person was only a Hunter, but he actually had the ability to defeat Night's End, Daybreak. How had he done it?
Zhuo Daynight was not famous, but she was very famous to some people, such as the Daynight clan.
Only Nightqueen Yanqing from the entire Daynight clan had been qualified to participate; the rest had not.
In the Daynight clan's ancestral grounds, many Daynight clan members were in an uproar. Zhuo Daynight had actually been defeated.
Nightking Dijiang was astonished as he looked at 007. This person had not been exhausted to death by Night's End, Daybreak. The universe was vast, and there were indeed many geniuses with innate gifts. Night's End, Daybreak had defeated an entire era.
To 007, defeating Zhuo Daynight was not a big deal. He remained calm as he looked up at the screen, but no one knew who he was looking at.
There were more than ten thousand arenas in the third fault zone, and each arena had about a hundred participants.
(This chapter is not finished. Please turn the page.)
This meant that only a million people had passed through the five checkpoints, which was not even half of the total number of participants.
After the third arena, there were only ten thousand participants left.
The battles on the third fault zone lasted for a full five days before ending.
Lu Yin and the rest could quickly defeat the remaining hundred participants, but there were more than ten thousand arenas, and there were not even a hundred with top-tier experts. The remaining participants could only compete slowly. Some arenas did not just compete on strength, but also on intelligence, background, and various schemes, threats, as well as the exchange of benefits. It took a full five days before the final victor was decided.
In some arenas, the only victor was not necessarily the strongest.
However, these people were not within the scope of most people's observation. Only a few dozen people would appear on the screens and be seen by everyone in the universe.
The further the competition went, the higher the chances of being exposed.
One figure after another disappeared from the third fault zone and reappeared on the second. There were two hundred arenas here, which was fifty times less than the third fault zone's ten thousand arenas. The number of participants in each arena was also reduced to fifty.
Fifty people was still an exaggerated number.
Almost everyone who could reach this point was an elite. Even the luckiest person would not be able to reach this point without strength.
Up until now, the Supreme Tournament had not yet begun for many people, and these people were just there to serve as a foil.
When they reached the second fault zone, everyone looked around as soon as they appeared.
There were only two hundred arenas here, and there were not many top-tier experts who had been eliminated from the third fault zone. In other words, the chances of encountering a top-tier expert had greatly increased.
When they looked around, many people were instantly saddened.
Cang Shi's face twitched, and beside him, Yao Xuan looked over with a smile that sent chills down his spine.
He swallowed his saliva and sighed silently. His luck had run out, and he had actually met the Pass Lord.
In another arena, Lan Baobao wanted to cry; she had met Shangqing.
Shangqing still looked like a deity. Three streams of energy circled around his body as he floated in the air. The dozens of people around him were stunned.
They had never imagined that they would meet Shangqing.
Of course, there were also people who were very happy. They were not very strong, and they had mostly relied on luck to reach this point.
Rather than someone else eliminating them, meeting Shangqing gave them more face. At the very least, they could tell the outside world that they had been eliminated by Shangqing. Who was Shangqing?
He was the number one person in the Hall of Honor, a true paragon. Being eliminated by him would give them a lot of face, and it would not be embarrassing at all.
Even further away, a fatty looked around anxiously. "Skinny Bro, Skinny Bro, where are you?"
Beside him, a cultivator stared blankly. Skinny Bro?
Was this guy crazy?
The fatty was one of the Sixth Mainland's Green Transformation Duo, Fat Bro. Across from him stood Tian Hou.
Tian Hou was extremely famous, and everyone around him was staring at him.
As for the Green Transformation Duo, they were just passersby.
The same scene was happening in another arena. Skinny Bro was frantically calling out for Fat Bro, but he could not find him no matter how hard he tried.
If there was anyone on the second fault zone who felt the most grief, it would be Charon. He looked at Lu Yin in a daze. Why was this bastard here?
Lu Yin had not expected to meet Charon either. What a coincidence.
When he thought about the harmonious interactions between the two, Lu Yin missed those days. They had been classmates, very good classmates at that.
