Lu Yin appeared behind Long Tian, "I've always wanted to tell you, but you're full of crap." Gou Lian slashed down, and Long Tian tried to grab it, but he didn't realize that his entire body had been bound by the Nebula Chain. These weren't real chains, but rather black death qi. The moment Long Tian appeared around Lu Yin, he had been bound.
With a hiss, Gou Lian tore apart half of Long Tian's body, causing blood to splatter onto the ground. Long Tian's eyes widened and narrowed as his body fell to the ground. He stared at Lu Yin in disbelief; this person was actually so terrifying.
He recalled all the things he had said to Lu Yin before; this guy had been toying with him all this time.
Long Xi's face paled, and she was also in disbelief. The Junior Ancestor was unrivalled among his peers in this part of the universe, and he had been nurtured, looked up to, and even worshipped by the entire universe. Who would have thought that he would be so easily injured by Long Qi?
Who was this person?
He was truly unrivalled among his peers.
Lu Yin glanced at her; if not for Long Xi's sake, that slash would have taken Long Tian's life. He looked at Bai Shaohong and raised Gou Lian up high.
Bai Shaohong felt a chill run down his spine; he hadn't expected Lu Yin to be able to fight them alone. This strength was unacceptable, and it had completely overturned his worldview.
He wasn't the only one who was shocked; Shangqing and the others were as well. Based on Lu Yin's performance in the Sovereign Tournament, he could indeed fight the Junior Ancestor alone, but it wouldn't be so exaggerated as to crush him. No one had expected Lu Yin's strength to improve so quickly; his battle force had reached ten golden lines, and he had broken through several realms after consuming the dragon saliva. His strength had soared once more, and he had even suppressed the Junior Ancestor.
Gou Lian landed on the ground. Bai Shaohong lifted his hand and tapped out with a finger. Immortal Shows the Way. At the same time, the water in the pond behind him was completely depleted, forming the most powerful Immortal Shows the Way so far. In front of him, fresh blood dripped down.
Lu Yin's battle technique was broken through by Immortal Guides the Way. However, Bai Shaohong had forgotten that before Lu Yin's Reaper Transformation, he had also possessed the strength to fight against the Junior Ancestor. His left hand moved. Emptiness Palm.
Immortal Guides the Way pressed down on Bai Shaohong, while Emptiness Palm attacked Bai Shaohong at an even faster speed. It wasn't just Bai Shaohong; Xia Shenfei, Wang Su, and Longtian were all struck by the Emptiness Palm at the same time. The three of them had taken the full brunt of the Emptiness Palm while in the Reaper's Transformation state, and they all spat out mouthfuls of blood as they retreated. Bai Shaohong had just been heavily injured by a single slash, and if the Emptiness Palm struck him again, he wasn't confident that he could survive.
He had no choice but to use his power vessel to block the Emptiness Palm with great difficulty. At the same time, he shouted, "Don't hold back! Use your power vessel to deal with them!"
Lu Yin's strength put too much pressure on them. Even someone as proud as Bai Shaohong had no choice but to use a power vessel in advance. This was tantamount to admitting defeat. As long as Lu Yin didn't die, Bai Shaohong would be traumatized the next time he faced Lu Yin.
Wang Su, Xia Shenfei, and Longtian felt the same way. Lu Yin's strength while in the Reaper's Transformation state was terrifying beyond imagination.
Lu Yin raised a hand and blocked Immortal Guides the Way with the Flow Diversion Diagram. As the diagram shattered, the remaining power of Immortal Guides the Way no longer posed a threat to Lu Yin. He was now more concerned about Bai Shaohong's power vessels, as well as the others'.
The hearts of Shangqing and the rest sank. It was time to compete for power vessels, and this time, it would depend on their foundations. How could their foundations compare to the junior ancestor of the Four Cardinal Scales?
Lu Yin relaxed when it came to competing for power vessels. The death qi that he had absorbed from Prince Gui Qian was almost exhausted, so it would be even better for him to compete for power vessels.
(This chapter is not finished. Please turn the page.)
However, Lu Yin wasn't afraid. He didn't believe that Bai Shaohong and the rest could take out more power vessels than he could. Ignoring everything else, just Mount Supreme was enough to suppress them.
Everyone's eyes were bloodshot as they fought for the Genesis Item, but they had forgotten that this was a trap. Since the humans' mortal enemies had set up such a trap, and they had even used the true Genesis Item and the tribulation crystal pillar as bait, how could it be broken so easily?
When the four young ancestors simultaneously used their visualization powers, none of them noticed that the desiccated corpses that had been shattered at the beginning had miraculously recovered. When Bai Shaohong took out his power vessel and prepared to end the battle, the sourcebox array that he had buried underground suddenly fell into chaos.
Lu Yin was the first to realize that something was wrong. He was an origin array master, after all, and he had mastered many sourcebox arrays. His control over star energy had reached the level of a World Realm cultivator, so he immediately sensed that something was wrong.
But it was already too late. The corpse opened its eyes, and everyone suddenly froze. Then, their gazes became dazed, and they sat down cross-legged as if they had been controlled.
"Sitting Oblivion, the Ruins of Oblivion hasn't been broken. Quick, escape!" Wang Su said with great difficulty. Only she, Bai Shaohong, and a few others barely maintained a bit of consciousness. They wanted to escape, but they seemed to be struggling. Shangqing was the same. As for the others, they sat down cross-legged and didn't move at all.
Lu Yin recited the Stonewall Scriptures and barely maintained a bit more consciousness than Wang Su and the others. He looked up at the corpse, and the Star Scattered Chessboard appeared beneath his feet as he moved.
His body vanished and then reappeared, moving to within five meters of the corpse. He locked gazes with the corpse, and their consciousnesses fused together. The Grim Reaper Transformation ended, and his body returned to normal.
The die had six pips. As long as he fused with someone once, he could fuse with them again as long as they were within five meters of him. This was Lu Yin's lifeline.
He could use the Secret Art of Plan to move around the corner and avoid the Ruins of Oblivion that Wang Su had mentioned. But if he left, what would happen to the others?
This was especially true for Long Xi, who was his wife in name. He subconsciously didn't want to give her up.
If he could fuse with the corpse, then he was confident that he could leave at any time.
The problem now was how to bring the others away. Lu Yin fused with the corpse's consciousness and moved his hands. Eh, he could control them now. He was delighted; this was perfect.
First, it was himself. He controlled the corpse to stand up and carry his body on its back. He then approached Wang Su, who was the closest to him. He looked around with a guilty conscience. This place was a trap, so there shouldn't be anyone lying in ambush, right? There shouldn't be. If there was, then there wouldn't have been a need to use the Ruins of Oblivion.
Lu Yin subconsciously coughed, but he found that he couldn't do so while controlling the corpse's body.
I'm sorry, but we're all enemies, so I can't do anything overboard. Besides, you can't leave this place, so there's no point in keeping these things. Lu Yin comforted himself as he took Wang Su's cosmic ring, cut her finger, and dripped a drop of blood into it. He then began to frantically sweep through the contents. It was time to collect his spoils of war, and he was a little excited.
This was the only thing he could do, which was to save these people. They definitely wouldn't be grateful to him, and at least he was sure that Bai Shaohong and Long Tian wouldn't. There was also that Crown Prince Gui Qian, who was filled with a sinister aura. Lu Yin couldn't treat his own life as a joke, and he couldn't do anything to them. Humanity's enemies had schemed and trapped everyone in this strange place. If he killed Bai Shaohong, Long Tian, and the others, then it would be the same as helping those monsters.
He couldn't save them, but he couldn't harm them either. He could only maintain the status quo, and those things could be considered compensation for not harming them.
(This chapter is not finished. Please continue reading.)
Lu Yin had thought that Wang Su's cosmic ring had a lot of star essence, but he was disappointed when he took a look. There were at most a few dozen million star essence, which might be enough for the others, but it was too little for him.
Aside from the star essence, there were many other personal items in her cosmic ring, but Lu Yin wasn't interested and just glanced through them. Hmm?
Wait, a hairpin attracted his attention. He frowned and took it out to take a closer look. Lu Yin was secretly delighted, as it was actually a lockbreaking tool. This was interesting; a lockbreaking tool was actually a hairpin?
It seemed to be similar to someone else's.
Lu Yin had almost slipped away when he wasn't paying attention, so he placed it on the ground and continued looking through it. He found some white papers. What was this?
Why was there paper in the cosmic ring?
It shouldn't be ordinary. He took it out, placed it on the ground, and continued searching. Finally, he found a small knife that was similar to the one he had used to destroy the circle during the battle, but there were some differences.
This knife was the only power vessel in the entire cosmic ring, and Lu Yin didn't need to guess to know that it wasn't simple. He took it out, and the sharp aura almost blinded him. It was definitely a powerful power vessel.
Lu Yin put it away without any hesitation. Next, he went to East River. That guy was already dead, so Lu Yin carried his own body and walked over. He took off the cosmic ring and dripped a drop of blood into it before sweeping through the contents.
There weren't many star essence in East River's cosmic ring, and Lu Yin only found some pills and power vessels, but they weren't anything special. There were also some white papers. What was this?
Lu Yin saw a bottle filled with red powder with the words "pepper" written on the outside.
Lu Yin was speechless. Pepper?
Was this for real?
Who would carry pepper around with them?
He thought of Silver, who claimed to be a gourmet and always carried seasonings with him. This East River guy actually had seasonings as well.
Lu Yin subconsciously put it away. No matter how small a fly was, it was still meat, so he continued.
Lu Yin began to sweep through the rings one by one, but of course, he only targeted his enemies. He couldn't kill people he was familiar with like Obscurus and the others. They were lucky, but Lu Yin felt that it was a pity.
From Yun Tingting, Lu Yin had obtained some star essence, healing pills, a few power vessels that weren't very useful, and some cigarettes. These cigarettes were very mysterious and should have been Yun Tingting's final trump card. Lu Yin took them without hesitation.
As for Wen Shizi, he didn't find anything except a pile of books and … ink.
Lu Yin pursed his lips. Wen Shizi's attitude towards him had always been good, so Lu Yin decided to let him off since he didn't have anything good to show for it.
He looked around and saw that it was Crown Prince Gui Qian's turn. This guy had contributed too much to Lu Yin, and if it weren't for him, the black and white fog in Lu Yin's chest wouldn't have been enough for him to use the Reaper Transformation for long. However, this guy had also exposed Lu Yin, and if it weren't for him, Lu Yin would have been able to continue pretending to be Long Qi. Although he wouldn't have been able to keep up the act for long, it wouldn't have stopped Gui Qian from exposing Lu Yin's crimes.
Lu Yin felt a little grateful, but of course, he was also a little angry. He didn't stand on ceremony and took the giant tribulation crystal pillar from Gui Qian's cosmic ring. He swept through the star essence and other items, but there was one item that caught his attention the most: a skeleton that seemed to belong to a beast. The moment he took it out, Lu Yin felt waves of pressure. This skeleton wasn't simple, so he took it away.
Lu Yin walked over to Xia Shenfei, feeling a little resentful towards him. This guy's secret technique was too disgusting, and it forced people to go against their will. He was simply shameless.
Xia Shenfei's cosmic ring was filled with wine, and Lu Yin's first thought was of Wine Hao. These two were a perfect match.
