When he heard Xun Baitao's words, Lu Yin's eyes flashed. "The Xun family doesn't want to limit themselves to Heaven Ascension Flowzone?"
Xun Baitao was stunned and then laughed dryly. "Haha, everyone wants to advance. It's human nature."
"Yes, it's human nature." Lu Yin smiled and nodded.
To the side, the girls that Xun Baitao had arranged for leaned closer and closer to Lu Yin, almost burying themselves in his embrace.
Lu Yin could not take it and had the two girls leave. The two girls were disappointed, and they looked at Lu Yin plaintively before leaving. It was a gaze that could melt anything.
The atmosphere of the banquet was rather harmonious. Lu Yin was curious about the Machinery Technique, the Xun family, and even Heaven Ascension Flowzone, and Xun Baitao told him everything he knew.
Half a day later, Xun Jiong arrived in front of Lu Yin and bowed respectfully. "I was rash and offended Alliance Master Lu. Please forgive me. I'll punish myself by drinking three cups." He was about to drink the wine that had been prepared when Lu Yin suddenly stopped him and smiled. "Brother Xun, there's no need for that. I'm not a petty person. Let's forget our past grudges."
Xun Jiong was grateful. His left arm had been severed by Liu Tianmu's Fifth Sword, and he would not be able to reattach it anytime soon. He looked rather weak. "Alliance Master Lu is magnanimous. I was blind, so I must punish myself."
Lu Yin replied, "Brother Xun's actions make me seem petty. If Brother Xun wants to drink, I'll drink with you." He then poured himself a cup.
Xun Jiong hurriedly said, "Thank you, Alliance Master Lu." He then finished the wine in his cup.
Lu Yin finished it in one gulp as well.
When he saw Lu Yin finish the wine, Xun Baitao's smile grew even brighter. "Alliance Master Lu is magnanimous. I, Xun Baitao, toast to Alliance Master Lu as well."
Lu Yin did not refuse anyone.
After a few cups, Lu Yin's body swayed, and he immediately supported himself on the table while shaking his head vigorously.
Xun Baitao and Xun Jiong exchanged glances when they saw Lu Yin's reaction.
Xun Jiong's eyes flashed with resentment, but he nodded and slowly left.
"Alliance Master Lu, what's wrong?" Xun Baitao asked with concern.
Lu Yin was puzzled. "Family Head Xun, what wine is this?
It actually made me drunk? "
Xun Baitao smiled. "This is a good wine that my Xun Clan has specially prepared for you. Do you like it?"
Lu Yin looked at Xun Baitao in confusion, "What do you mean?"
Xun Baitao laughed. At the banquet, Elder Xun Ye and the rest of the Xun Family laughed.
"Alliance Master Lu, I've always wanted to ask you a question. Do you still remember Xun Qianye?" Xun Baitao asked.
Lu Yin shook his head again. "The Xun family that I killed?"
Xun Baitao's eyes narrowed. "That's right. Does Alliance Master Lu know why he attacked you?
What did you learn from him? "
Lu Yin and Xun Baitao exchanged glances, "What should I know?"
"For example, the paper in that gun, that list of names," Xun Baitao said slowly, his tone cold. As he spoke, an enormous aura with a power level of over 400,000 descended. Star energy whizzed past, enveloping not only the Xun family's spacecraft but also the surrounding space.
In the distance, Duan Daynight and the others' expressions changed. "Not good! An Enlighter has sealed off the region."
Wendy Yushan clenched her fists and looked at the Xun family's spacecraft.
The others looked panicked. The terrifying power that sealed off the starry sky made them feel powerless. This was not a power that they could resist.
Around them, spacecraft after spacecraft appeared, all from the Xun family, and they surrounded the group.
Within the Xun family's spacecraft, Lu Yin lowered his head. "List?
What list? "
Xun Baitao approached Lu Yin and reached out. "Still trying to act?" Just as he was about to approach Lu Yin, the scene in front of him suddenly changed. He had arrived at a place that he had once visited, longed for, and yearned for: Mount Glory.
This was the heart of the Hall of Honor, and all of the upper echelons of the Hall of Honor were gathered here. This was the Glory Realm.
When he had first arrived at the Glory Realm, Xun Baitao had been nothing more than an ant that anyone could step on, even if he had been the Xun family's patriarch at the time. Now, he had become the master of Mount Glory. In front of him, nine people were kneeling in a row. They were the nine directors that he had looked up to in the past. In the distance, various great worlds prostrated themselves at his feet. He had become the master of Mount Glory and the master of the entire universe.
Xun Baitao's breathing quickened as he laughed heartily. He had finally succeeded. He had joined the Technocracy and climbed up the Sixth Mainland's branch, becoming the person with the highest status in the Fifth Mainland. From now on, his Xun family would dominate the Neoverse. The Hall of Honor, the Sirius Sect, the Innerverse's Sword Sect, and the Daynight clan would all have to act according to his whims.
Maniacal laughter echoed throughout the Glory Realm.
Suddenly, the top of Xun Baitao's head split open as a hand descended and slammed him into the ground. Xun Baitao's body pierced through a great world and smashed into the ground.
Xun Baitao spat out a mouthful of blood, and his eyes almost popped out of their sockets as he watched the enormous hand descend once more.
He resisted, and the star energy around him gathered together to form a strange weapon that blasted towards the hand. This was his strongest attack, and even an Emissary would be shocked by it. However, it was useless, and he was still smashed into the ground by the hand. Once, twice, and again.
Pfft!
Within the Xun family's spacecraft, Xun Baitao's hand was only a few centimeters away from Lu Yin, but he was unable to advance any further. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body collapsed to the ground.
The surrounding Xun family members were shocked. What was going on?
Lu Yin's gaze turned cold as he stood up and moved his hand. Xun Ye, who had been about to attack, was sent flying. He crashed into the side of the spacecraft and fell into outer space, his body torn apart. He had been struck by an empty palm, and there was no way he could have survived.
A hole appeared in the spacecraft, and a powerful suction force sucked away all of the tables and chairs in the banquet.
The members of the Xun family looked at Lu Yin in horror, their faces pale and filled with despair.
Xun Baitao coughed up another mouthful of blood, and his vision grew blurry. He had endured the Daynight's Tribute and been struck by the Nightking's Sky-Splitting Technique dozens of times. His spiritual force had long since crumbled, and the injuries he had sustained from the Daynight's Tribute would appear in his real body.
Although Xun Baitao's power level exceeded 400,000, his spiritual force was still weaker than Qiu Shi and the others'. A single Daynight's Tribute was enough to cripple him.
This was the difference between geniuses and ordinary people.
Even if his power level exceeded 400,000, his flaws were still too great.
Qiu Shi, Xia Jiuyou, and the others were not as strong as Xun Baitao, but these elite geniuses did not have any obvious flaws. For example, Qiu Shi's physical strength was not as strong as the Star Devourer or Feather Mavis, but she was still able to resist.
Another example was Jiu Hao. His spiritual force could not compare to Yao Xuan, Lu Yin, and the others, but he would not be easily knocked unconscious or severely injured.
Xun Baitao was different. He had a body full of power, but his flaws were too obvious. If he participated in the Sovereign Tournament, it would be difficult for him to even enter the top ten. Yao Xuan's spiritual force, Feather Mavis' strength, Xia Jiuyou's blade intent, and so on were enough to deal a fatal blow to him.
The top ten powerhouses of the younger generation all had power levels that even Envoys would be shocked by.
He looked down at Xun Baitao, who gritted his teeth and looked up at Lu Yin. "You weren't poisoned?"
Lu Yin's lips curled up. "Where did you get the confidence to think that I would have been poisoned?"
Xun Baitao's face paled, and he slowly stood up. "How could that be?
Were you prepared?
Who betrayed us? "
Lu Yin laughed. "It looks like you're very confident in your ability to poison others. Do you remember the battle at Nightking Planet?
Nightking Zhenwu poisoned me as well, and it's impossible to guard against such methods. I've suffered once, so why would I suffer a second time? "
Xun Baitao despaired. He had poisoned the two women, and as long as they touched Lu Yin, Lu Yin would definitely be poisoned. As a precaution, he had even poisoned the chair. Normally, it would be impossible to avoid, but this person had actually been able to. "How did you know that I would poison you?"
"If you didn't poison me, then how would you deal with me?" Lu Yin retorted.
Xun Baitao suddenly attacked, and the star energy in his palm transformed into a strange combination as he slammed his palm towards Lu Yin. Lu Yin narrowed his eyes, and his pupils transformed into runes that weakened the attack. At the same time, he raised his hand and unleashed an Emptiness Palm.
Bang!
There was a loud explosion, and the spacecraft was torn apart. The surrounding Xun family members were all affected and turned into dust. Xun Baitao had displayed strength with a power level of over 400,000, but it was only enough to withstand a single attack from the Emptiness Palm. Lu Yin had used the Eon Evolution Scripture to weaken Xun Baitao's attack from over 400,000 to less than 400,000. Every single attack from the Emptiness Palm had a power level of over 300,000.
The two palms collided, and Xun Baitao borrowed the force of Lu Yin's palm in an attempt to escape. As for the Xun family, he didn't even care about his own son, Xun Jiong. Lu Yin sneered. Xun Baitao really was heartless. As he thought about it, the Star Chessboard appeared beneath his feet. Outer space was the board, and people were the chess pieces. The spacecraft was the chess piece, and Xun Baitao was also a chess piece.
Xun Baitao's vision changed again, and he appeared directly in front of Lu Yin. Most importantly, his back was still facing Lu Yin.
Lu Yin's Emptiness Palm was so fast that Xun Baitao could not react in time. His back was in intense pain, and his bones were instantly shattered. His entire body was bent over, and he no longer resembled a human.
From the surroundings, beams of light shot towards Lu Yin from the Xun family's spacecraft.
Lu Yin snorted and released his domain, which enveloped outer space and disintegrated all of the incoming attacks. His powerful domain was enough to defeat an ordinary Enlighter, let alone these Xun family's spacecraft.
Wendy Yushan, Ku Wei, and the others walked out from outer space and attacked the surrounding spacecraft. This was the Ascension Flowzone, and although the Xun family had many cultivators, they did not have many experts. They were not a match for Ku Wei and the others.
Lu Yin could not be bothered with these small fries, and his body flashed as he appeared in front of Xun Baitao.
Xun Baitao had been smashed into a barren planet by Lu Yin's Emptiness Palm. There were only gray rocks around him that were completely devoid of life, and lava flowed within the earth.
Xun Baitao fell into the ground and could not move at all.
Lu Yin walked up to him. "When the banquet started, you did not mention a single word about Xun Qianye or the name list. I knew that something was wrong. You took the risk of killing me just because of a name list that I might know about? That's impossible. You should be very clear about the power behind me. Even if I succeeded, the Xun family would never be able to establish itself on the Fifth Mainland.
Xun Baitao kept coughing up blood as he stared at Lu Yin with unwillingness.
