"Kid, speak! How did you learn the Daynight's Tribute?" the Second Nightking shouted as he glared at Lu Yin.
Lu Yin looked at him and then at Elder Jiushen. He let out a long sigh. "Of course I learned it in the ancestral grounds."
"Impudent! How can an outsider like you learn it in the Daynight clan's ancestral grounds?" the Second Nightking barked.
Lu Yin bitterly replied, "Actually, I fell in love with a girl from the Nightking clan and went through many hardships to reach this place. I obtained the clan leader's permission to enter the inheritance corridor under the stone tablet and reach the deepest part of the ancestral grounds, where I learned the clan's top battle technique, the Daynight's Tribute."
The Second Nightking stared at Lu Yin, unable to tell if he was lying or not. This kid was too good at disguising himself, but the Daynight clan did not marry outsiders. This was a rule that had been established since ancient times, so how could this kid go against it?
"Our Daynight clan does not marry outsiders," the Second Nightking said coldly.
Lu Yin raised his head excitedly. "Nightqueen Yanqing and I are truly in love, and no one can stop us."
"Nightqueen Yanqing?"
The Second Nightking looked outside the ruins and saw the broken ancestral grounds. He saw the giants and the Daynight clan members suppressed by the giants, and his eyes flashed with killing intent. At that moment, Elder Jiushen and Lu Yin disappeared at the same time. Sourcebox Array: Greater Transfer Array.
The Second Nightking suddenly turned around and waved his hand. "You dare lie to me? Ten Hells Killing Array!" The balls of spiritual force once again surrounded the two.
Elder Jiushen retreated with Lu Yin in an attempt to avoid the Ten Hells Killing Array, but with the Second Nightking's current strength, it was difficult for them to do so.
Lu Yin's gaze hardened as he released his domain and spread it out in all directions.
The ruins of the Frigid Immortal Sect were huge, but it was not too exaggerated. It was far from the size of Dragon Mountain in the Cosmic Tree, which meant that a considerable portion of it had been brought there.
Lu Yin's domain swept out towards Western Zhou, affecting Shaoyou Peak, Grand Harmony Peak, and even the surrounding peaks. It stirred up the remaining spiritual force that had been affected.
In an instant, the entire Frigid Immortal Sect seemed to have been set ablaze. The spiritual force that had been silently repeating the events of the past was awakened and attacked the cultivators who had entered the ruins.
The atmosphere of the Frigid Immortal Sect changed.
The Second Nightking immediately sensed this, and he was furious. "Brat, you deserve to die!"
It wasn't just the Second Nightking; countless other people were cursing at the same time. This wasn't just Shaoyou Peak or Grand Harmony Peak, but rather the entire Frigid Immortal Sect. It was as if all of the cultivators in the Frigid Immortal Sect had woken up and were attacking everyone who had entered the sect.
It was as if they had broken into an ancient sect, the Frigid Celestial Sect.
The first unlucky ones were Nightking Di Jiang and Liu Yefei, as the meeting hall that they were in was filled with the top experts of the Frozen Immortal Sect.
When these remnants of spiritual force were awakened, a terrifying power appeared and attacked Nightking Di Jiang and Liu Yefei.
In just an instant, the three of them were injured. Those were the top masters of the Cold Immortal Sect. Not only did they all have a battle prowess of more than a million, but more than half of them had a battle prowess of more than a million. The three of them couldn't even resist.
Mr. Liu Ye reacted quickly. He immediately took out the chief judge's token and shook it. The crisp sound of a bell rang through the ruins of the Cold Immortal Sect.
In an instant, everyone seemed to see a huge hand crushing down, covering the sky. That was the head inquisitor.
Even in this ancient sect, the strength of a head inquisitor was extremely terrifying.
In the instant that Lu Yin was stunned by this power, he was stunned.
(This chapter is not finished. Please turn the page.)
The only thing he could think of was to hope that the Progenitor's power above Xing Mountain would not be drawn out. Otherwise, none of them would be able to leave this place alive.
Mr. Liu Ye had used the chief judge's token to intimidate everyone and the remnants of spiritual force. Even he himself had been intimidated. However, because he had used the token, he was the first to awaken.
After awakening, he immediately grabbed Big Sis Feihua and fled. Nightking Di Jiang was not so lucky, as he had awakened at the same time as the remnants of spiritual force.
The expert from the Frigid Celestial Sect, who was sitting at the head of the table, pointed a finger at Nightking Di Jiang's forehead. Nightking Di Jiang did not even have time to react before his entire body froze and then exploded.
The dignified Daynight Clan Patriarch, who had experienced the era of the First Nightking, had fallen into a deep slumber using the Eternal Night technique and had cultivated to a power level of more than 800,000. He had been a top expert of the Innerverse, but now, he had died.
Even in death, he did not know that this was all because of him.
If he had not lured out the Frigid Celestial Sect's ruins in an attempt to borrow the Second Nightking's power to protect the Daynight clan, the Second Nightking would not have chased after Lu Yin. Lu Yin would not have alerted the entire Frigid Celestial Sect and brought death upon himself.
However, Lu Yin did not have it easy either. One by one, the remnants of the Frigid Celestial Sect's spiritual force appeared and surrounded them. Wen Sansi, Obscurity, and the others were also surrounded, and many of them cursed Lu Yin for being shameless.
Lu Yin had no other choice, as he did not even know if he would be able to leave the Frigid Celestial Sect's ruins alive. This was the Frigid Celestial Sect, and even if a Half-Ancestor did not appear, the powerhouses with power levels in the millions were more than enough to obliterate them. Furthermore, these spiritual force remnants did not have any self-awareness, which was the most terrifying part. Lu Yin could not even open his mouth to speak.
The Second Nightking was being targeted by a spiritual force remnant, and even with his current power level, he could not escape. This spiritual force remnant definitely had the strength to rival Elder Jiu Shen's.
Elder Jiu Shen and Lu Yin were similarly surrounded by several spiritual force remnants, and they could not escape at all. Left with no other choice, Elder Jiu Shen grabbed onto Lu Yin tightly. "Kid, whether you can survive or not is up to you." His face then turned red and he spat out a mouthful of blood. Hundreds of thousands of stars rapidly converged, but they did not form Sirius Sword Technique. Instead, they formed a Sirius Palm that pushed against Lu Yin's back. With the protection of the stars, it pushed Lu Yin out of the ruins.
Lu Yin had not expected Elder Jiu Shen to be so selfless. He was willing to be injured again and reduce his chances of escaping, which touched him greatly.
However, his emotions did not last long, as Elder Jiu Shen disappeared and was replaced by a Daynight clan member who was instantly pulverized. It was Stellar Transposition.
Lu Yin did not have time to think. His body rushed out of the ruins under the protection of the stars. Behind him, a spiritual force remnant raised its hand and used Secret Technique: Cloudfall.
The stars around Lu Yin were all frozen in place. He gritted his teeth and activated the Star Chessboard beneath his feet.
Fortunately, the surrounding stars slowed him down, allowing him enough time to activate the Secret Art of Plan. Lu Yin instantly arrived at the entrance of the ruins, but the surrounding stars were still pushing him out. He looked back, hoping to catch a glimpse of the Second Nightking, but in that instant, his vision shifted from near to far away. Perhaps it was because the Secret Art of Plan had stirred up space, but he saw Bai Shui jump into the distant Frigid Immortal Pond.
With a whoosh, Lu Yin was pushed out of the ruins by the stars, smashing apart small planets around Nightking's Planet along the way. Finally, he crashed into an enormous spacecraft.
Cough cough.
Lu Yin clutched his chest and moved his body. It hurt so much. Where was Elder Jiu Shen?
(This chapter is not finished. Please turn the page.)
Just as he was about to leave the spacecraft, he heard a voice that caused him to turn around. "Captain, long time no see."
Lu Yin turned around and saw the hateful Smiley Fox's face not too far away. It had a strange smile that sent chills down one's spine as it swung its butterfly.
The butterfly knife approached step by step.
"Silver?" Lu Yin's voice was low and filled with shock.
Silver beamed at Lu Yin as he slowly approached. "As expected of the captain, you're not even injured. I admire you."
Lu Yin took a step forward and arrived in front of Silver. He raised a hand and grabbed the man's neck, exerting a bit of force. Silver was unable to resist at all, or rather, he had no intention of resisting. He allowed Lu Yin to lift him up with a pale face.
"Cap- Captain, there's no need to be so enthusiastic," Silver said, still beaming. Even though he was only a step away from death, there was still a Third Transformation Ghoul behind him. However, that ghoul was no threat to Lu Yin and could be destroyed with a single slap.
Lu Yin lifted Silver up, but he did not say anything. Instead, he suddenly flung him out, using Overlaying Stacks to push Silver to the ground. Silver spat out a mouthful of blood and was in a sorry state.
Lu Yin glanced at him and then looked towards the ruins of the Frigid Immortal Sect with a solemn expression. He only relaxed when he saw that the remnants of spiritual force had not come out. He did not know whether it was because they could not or for some other reason.
Outside the spacecraft, Chen Huang arrived with Ku Wei on his shoulder. "Master, are you alright?"
"I'm fine. Go back," Lu Yin said.
Ku Wei still wanted to enter, but Lu Yin said, "Keep an eye on the Daynight clan members. Don't let them run around."
Ku Wei was helpless. "Yes, Master."
Only then did Lu Yin turn his attention back to Silver.
Silver was sprawled on the ground with blood at the corner of his mouth. He looked up at Lu Yin with the same chilling smile, but there were still traces of blood on his face, making him look even more miserable.
"It's been a long time since we last met. Your smile is still as annoying as ever," Lu Yin said as he looked down at Silver.
Silver wiped the blood from his mouth and struggled to get up with a pained expression. "It hurts, Captain. It's been a while, but you've gotten even stronger. You're far stronger than you were during the Sovereign Tournament. Now, you can easily deal with powerhouses with a power level of over 500,000. Amazing."
Lu Yin looked at him. "Since you know that, why are you still standing in front of me?"
Silver shrugged. "I can't help it. I have to show my loyalty."
Lu Yin frowned, but he did not say anything. He just continued to look at Silver.
Silver smiled. "Captain, you used the Death God's power in the final battle of the Sovereign Tournament. From then on, you became the master of death energy. Have you ever thought about leading the Specter Clan back to glory?
In the entire universe, only the Specter Clan has the same power as you, Captain. "
Lu Yin understood what Silver was saying. The Specter Clan was the same as the Ghost Abyss of the Astral Tree. They were both death energy users, and the two might have come from the same lineage. Back in the Astral Tree, someone from Ghost Abyss had died to save Lu Yin, claiming that he was the master of Ghost Abyss. Prince Gui Qian had also said that anyone who used death energy was a descendant of the Death God. Lu Yin was the Death God's successor and the master of all death energy.
Silver's words were exactly the same as Prince Gui Qian's.
But would Lu Yin believe him?
Only an idiot would believe that. No one would accept a random person as their master, let alone people like Silver and Prince Gui Qian.
The Specter Clan and the She family had both suffered heavy losses, and in order to protect themselves, they had not hesitated to join the Neohuman Alliance. This clan had no bottom line, just like the sylvan dragons. Lu Yin did not believe that they would randomly pledge their loyalty to him.
