The death of an Emissary was a huge deterrent, and the cultivators who had been sent here all became well-behaved. They all stayed at the foot of the mountain and tried to think of ways to advance higher.
Lu Yin sat cross-legged in the mountain range and slowly absorbed the star energy. His last breakthrough had brought him to the Enlighter realm with 32 cycles, and now, he was working towards 33 cycles. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, his normal cultivation speed would take too long. Doing so would just be a waste of time, so he might as well cultivate his battle force.
When he thought of battle force, Lu Yin thought of Zhou Tang's Warring States Period. It was domineering and invincible, and he yearned for it.
Battle force required boldness. He had broken through from nine lines to ten lines because he had been invincible during the Sovereign Tournament. At that moment, he had been at the top of his peers. Now, if he wanted to take his battle force one step further and reach the Warring States Period, he would need a moment like this.
He didn't know when that moment would come.
Battle force required boldness, while a domain required cultivation and comprehension. Lu Yin had already reached the level of predicting attacks and had reached the Spiritual Transformation realm. The next step was to reach the Void Spirit realm, but this realm was somewhat illusory.
Wen Shicheng had said that there was an Void Spirit expert in Yi Xian Academy, and that he should find some time to go there. At the very least, he should find the threshold to comprehend the Void Spirit realm.
His current strongest attack was the Empty Palm, and he also had the Nightking's Heaven-Opening Technique for spiritual force attacks. He also had the General Platform, the die, and the Reaper's Transformation. He had many techniques, but the Sirius Technique, Nine Yang Cauldron Transformation, and Dream Finger could not keep up.
When he returned to the Fifth Mainland, he definitely had to visit the Sirius Sect and learn the entire Sirius Technique. Although this technique might not reach the level of the Astral Tree of the Four Directions Libra technique, it was still quite useful.
His greatest regret was that he had never had the time to visit the Nine Yang Cauldron Transformation. This legendary battle technique was said to be invincible, and when he returned to the Fifth Mainland, he definitely had to absorb all of the cauldron qi.
Lu Yin went through everything that he knew in his mind. This process was neither too long nor too short, as he had too many tricks up his sleeve.
While he was thinking, a stream of water streaked down the mountain. Lu Yin saw the color and the temperature. Was that urine?
He was immediately enraged. He swept out with his domain and sensed a man holding a blade of grass above his head, leisurely taking a piss. Although the piss wasn't above his head and didn't reach his residence, this kind of feeling was truly disgusting.
The man also sensed the domain. He looked up and frowned. "Who is it?
You've got guts, haven't you? How dare you peek at Grandpa Tu peeing? If you want to see, I'll show you. "He then turned around and peed in Lu Yin's direction.
Lu Yin's gaze turned cold, and the void trembled as cracks appeared in space that extended towards the man. The man was enraged, and he spat out the grass and put away his pants. He gritted his teeth and cursed, "Which bastard dares to attack your Grandpa Tu?
Stand up for Grandpa Tu. Grandpa Tu will beat you up so badly that even your father will feel sorry for you. "
The man's voice was very loud and attracted a lot of attention. Most of them were from the people below. The place he lived was very close to the top. Most importantly, this person was not an emissary.
Lu Yin walked out with an ugly expression as he stared at the man. "Your words will be your fate."
The man was about to curse when he saw Lu Yin walk out, but he suddenly froze and stared blankly at Lu Yin, "B-Boss?"
Lu Yin frowned.
The man suddenly shook his head and rubbed his eyes. "No, although you look like him, you're not Boss. Boss isn't as wretched as you. No, Boss is more wretched than you. Kid, who are you?
How dare you attack your Grandpa Tu?
(This chapter is not finished. Please turn the page.)
What kind of status does this place have?
Go ask around; when has Grandpa Tu ever been a coward? "
Lu Yin took a step forward and arrived in front of the man. "I hope you remember your words." He then attacked. For some reason, Lu Yin felt like beating this person up.
The man looked older than Lu Yin, but they were definitely not of the same generation. His appearance was average, and his facial features were normal. However, his eyes were very bright, and Lu Yin punched them.
The punch stopped less than ten centimeters away from the man, and a palm appeared in front of him to block Lu Yin's punch.
A middle-aged man with a cold expression appeared as he stared at Lu Yin. Shock flashed through his eyes as he bent his fingers and grabbed Lu Yin's fist. Lu Yin frowned and unleashed 350 Stacks. The middle-aged man was shocked, and the void distorted as a rift appeared. Lu Yin and the middle-aged man had used too much strength, and their arms both disappeared as they entered the Astral Source Universe.
There was a thump, and Lu Yin retreated more than ten steps before barely managing to stand. He looked at the man in shock; this person was very strong.
The middle-aged man looked at Lu Yin in surprise. "You're new here?"
Before Lu Yin could speak, the man clamored, "Uncle He, beat him up! This bastard dared to attack me! Beat him up!"
Uncle He glanced at the man. "Stop messing around. This person isn't simple. Even I can't break through his external items."
The man was shocked. "That much?"
Lu Yin said to the middle-aged man, "You should know what the person behind you did. He wants to apologize to me."
The middle-aged man replied, "Little brother, you can die at any time in the Folded Mountain Range. Don't fuss over small matters if you can help it. Can you give me some face?"
Lu Yin nodded. "Since that's the case, I'll give you some face."
"Wait! Even if you don't fuss over it, I'll fuss over it!"
Uncle He frowned. "I told you to stop messing around. Nobody has a good time here."
The man snorted. "I'm just muddling along. In any case, I'm still going to die. Don't you think that this brat looks a lot like someone?"
Uncle He had a complicated expression. "That person is already gone, and he'll never appear again."
"I know, which is why I want to beat this brat up." The man gritted his teeth as pain flashed through his eyes, especially his forehead, which was visibly swollen. An indescribable pain engulfed his brain, and he clenched his fists as he glared at Lu Yin. "Brat, if you have the ability, then take off your external items. Let's fight one-on-one.
Uncle He growled, "Stop messing around. You can't beat him. Your innate gift has been crippled, and you can't even beat the most ordinary Enlighter." But then, he saw the swelling on the man's forehead and was stunned. His expression changed, and he dejectedly said, "Whatever."
The man trembled from the swelling, but he still glared at Lu Yin. "Brat, do you dare?"
Lu Yin laughed and put away the Cloud Landing Robe. "Fine, I'll give you a chance."
There was a thump as the man was punched to the ground. Lu Yin was flabbergasted; this guy was too weak. How did he dare to provoke someone with such skills?
How could he live in such a high place?
The man didn't get angry after being punched. Instead, he laughed. "Again."
Thump!
"Again."
Thump!
Punch after punch, Lu Yin lost count of how many punches the man had thrown. The more he punched, the happier the man became, and the swelling on his forehead slowly disappeared. Uncle He stood to the side.
(This chapter is not finished. Please continue reading.)
He watched on with a complicated expression, but he had no intention of interfering. Fortunately, Lu Yin had been on guard this entire time.
After a long time, the man finally couldn't get up. There was blood at the corner of his mouth, and his face was as swollen as a pig's. The swelling on his head had completely disappeared.
Uncle He walked forward and squatted down to apply some medicine on the man's face. He then carried him away without saying a word.
"Again, come again if you dare. I'm not afraid of you. Don't even think about me calling you boss …" the man muttered something that Lu Yin couldn't understand as he gradually disappeared into the distance.
Lu Yin was confused by what had just happened. What was going on?
On the other side, Uncle He placed the man down to rest. He sighed, "You must be very happy today."
The man grinned. He'd clearly been beaten up badly, but he was truly happy.
"You've endured years of mental torture. Don't give up. The next time it happens, go look for him. Just treat him as that person. Even if you're beaten up, you'll still be happy," Uncle He sighed and slowly walked away.
The next day, while Lu Yin was resting, the stream of water appeared above his head again. This time, it was even closer to him.
Lu Yin walked out and saw the man who called himself Young Master Tu grinning. His injuries had completely healed, and he looked especially annoying.
"Do you want to die?" Lu Yin asked coldly.
Young Master Tu snorted, "I won't fight you today. Let's be reasonable."
Lu Yin's lips curled up. "Sorry, but if you can fight, then don't talk nonsense. Or, let's talk after you've beaten me up." He then stepped forward and punched Young Master Tu, but Uncle He caught the punch once again.
Lu Yin was furious. "Senior, this person is clearly trying to cause trouble for me. I didn't pursue the matter yesterday out of respect for Senior, so please don't meddle in our affairs."
Uncle He was helpless. "Little brother, please forgive me. I can't just leave you be."
Lu Yin was so angry that he laughed. "It seems like Senior is determined to take advantage of me. Since that's the case, I won't hold back." He then prepared to activate the Crimson Radiance Sourcebox Array. He refused to believe that he could be bullied in the Folded Mountains.
"Hey, don't be rash. Let's be reasonable. We're all cultured people, so don't be rash," Young Master Tu hurriedly said.
Lu Yin stared at him. "Let me beat you up first."
Young Master Tu's eyes darted around. "Can't you wait for a month? I'll duel with you."
Lu Yin frowned and looked at this person strangely before looking at Uncle He. These two gave him a very strange feeling. They didn't seem to have any ill intentions, but they were filled with malice. It was a disgusting kind of malice. "What are you trying to do?"
"Chat," Young Master Tu smiled.
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed. "I don't have time for that."
Young Master Tu sneered and then pulled up his pants. It looked like he was about to do it again. Lu Yin immediately used an Emptiness Palm, but Uncle He remained vigilant against Lu Yin. The instant the Emptiness Palm struck out, Uncle He reacted as well and prevented it from reaching Young Master Tu.
"Little brother, we really just want to chat. We don't have any ill intentions. A month. He'll duel with you in a month. At that time, it doesn't matter how you fight. How about it?"
Lu Yin's eyes flickered, and he felt helpless. He couldn't beat Uncle He, so how could he avoid him?
The Folded Mountains were only so big, so he could only hide with a Half-Ancestor. However, a Half-Ancestor would not care about such matters. Lu Yin was thinking about how to use the Crimson Radiance to deal with Uncle He. Otherwise, his entire body would feel uncomfortable, as if he was being pestered.
"What do you want to chat about?"
Lu Yin asked indifferently as he calmly looked at Young Master Tu.
