Old Man Nong's face paled as he quickly used the Sky Sealing Diagram to trap Elder Autumn Frost before retreating.
At this moment, a ray of light cut across the starry sky from afar. One end of the ray came from afar while the other attacked Elder Autumn Frost.
Elder Autumn Frost was hit by the ray of light and was pierced through.
Elder Wu Mu and Old Man Nong looked into the distance. This battle technique?
"Seniors, let's work together. A Third Transformation Corpse King is hard to kill." The one who spoke was a middle-aged man. He had a jade-like face and was extremely handsome. His tone was steady, a stark contrast to Old Man Nong's fear.
This person was Elder Lingtong, Xu San's master.
In the Blackblood Realm, the strongest was the Heaven Imprinter, Wu Mu, who had died a long time ago. Next to Wu Mu was Elder Wu Mu, and below him was Elder Lingtong.
Although Elder Lingtong was a World Imprinter, his strength had already reached the level of a half-step Cosmic Imprinter.
Elder Autumn Frost could fight against a Cosmic Imprinter with his Third Transformation Corpse King's characteristics, and so could Elder Lingtong.
As for Elder Lingtong, even Elder Wu Mu couldn't see through him. When Wu Mu was still alive, he had said that once Elder Lingtong broke through to the Cosmic Imprinter, other than the Heaven Imprinter, few could match him.
Elder Wu Mu was also excluded. This was Elder Lingtong's strength.
Elder Lingtong had always stood at the top of his peers since he was young. His seniority was far below Elder Wu Mu's, but now, they were almost on the same level.
Elder Wu Mu thought that Elder Lingtong's arrival was more useful than Old Man Nong's. Especially the battle technique just now, which penetrated the Corpse King's body, its power was stronger than his attack.
At this moment, Elder Autumn Frost broke free from the Sky Sealing Diagram and stared at Elder Lingtong with his scarlet eyes.
Elder Wu Mu put the halo on Elder Autumn Frost again and said, "Attack."
Old Man Nong pushed the Sky Sealing Diagram, and Elder Autumn Han charged towards Elder Wu Mu. The Sky Sealing Diagram cut in from a strange angle, trapping Elder Autumn Han once again. In Elder Lingtong's eyes, the Polycoria scattered and then converged. She stared at Elder Autumn Han's forehead and pointed out a finger, "Bright Light Finger."
In the next moment, the light gathered and dispersed, striking Elder Autumn Frost's forehead.
…
At the border of the Great Eastern Alliance, Lu Yin stealthily returned, and Master Yuan immediately sought him out. "The latest news is that Ancestor Autumn Frost has been killed. He was actually a Corpse King, and he can even use the Third Transformation."
"Patriarch Autumnfrost is dead?
What's going on? "
Master Yuan's information network came from the Hall of Honor. Since the Sixth Mainland had entered the Outerverse, how could the Hall of Honor not know about them?
While the Sixth Mainland was thinking of ways to infiltrate the Hall of Honor, the Hall of Honor was also thinking of ways to infiltrate the Sixth Mainland's Daosource Sect.
Lu Yin had Xu San as his source of information, but Xu San's level was too low, and it would take some time for him to understand the information.
The Hall of Honor's information network was even faster than his.
After listening to Master Yuan's report, Lu Yin frowned. The situation was getting serious.
That instrument was more important than he had imagined.
What kind of item would make Elder Autumnfrost, whose combat power exceeded 800,000 and who could use the Third Transformation Corpse King, be willing to expose himself and be killed rather than waste a single second to search for it? Clearly, that item was far more important than Elder Autumnfrost himself.
This imposter Elder Autumn Frost had only been building the device for about ten years. The device itself was not worth his time. At most, he would build it for another ten years. The most important thing was definitely the black crystal.
The item within the black crystal.
What exactly was it?
Lu Yin had a premonition that even if the Neohuman Alliance's headquarters in the Innerverse and Outerverse were destroyed, that item would still be far more important.
Lu Yin took out a fragment of the black crystal and focused on it.
Not long after, he found the Second Nightking.
"You're going to the Autumnfrost family again?" The Second Nightking did not understand. "What for?"
Lu Yin answered, "Nothing much. I'm just going to keep an eye on those black crystal fragments and see who's there."
The Second Nightking replied, "That's where the Corpse King and the powerhouses with power levels in the millions are fighting. Many people have gone there to watch."
"Let's take a look around. Who knows, we might be able to find something interesting," Lu Yin said. Elder Autumn Frost would rather stay in the same spot and search, even if it meant his death. However, he was not the only Corpse King in the Neohuman Alliance who would do such a thing.
The Second Nightking reluctantly left.
After returning to the border, the Second Nightking and Liu Huang had to avoid Master Yuan, as there was no point in keeping them here.
After sending the Second Nightking away, Lu Yin checked the reports on Ironblood Weave.
The Celestial Beast Empire had not disappointed him, as they had sent powerhouses with power levels in the millions to join the Primal Zone's astral beasts and occupy Ironblood Weave. The Sword Valley Master's strength was outstanding, but it was still difficult for him to repel the astral beasts.
Lu Yin sighed as he looked at the star chart. He felt very guilty, as Ironblood Weave was a border that the Human Domain had protected for countless years. Now that it had been occupied, he felt like he had let down all the heroes who had died in battle there.
"Don't worry. What's ours will be ours. I, Lu Yin, am a man of my word. One day, I'll lead you all into the Primal Zone and the Astral Beast Domain," Lu Yin muttered to himself.
Although the Sword Valley Master was in Ironblood Weave, it was not him who was forcing the Great Eastern Alliance, but rather the Four Sovereigns behind him.
In the blink of an eye, the one-month deadline was up. Elder Eyeless and Old Nong had already returned to the border.
When the one-month deadline was up, they all stepped out to pressure the Great Eastern Alliance.
Lu Yin looked at the sky with a stern expression.
"Alliance Master Lu, the one-month deadline is up. Please leave the Outerverse," Elder Eyeless said loudly.
Lu Yin raised his head. "Senior Cangqiong Old Man promised to give the Great Eastern Alliance five weaves. Does that still count?"
Elder Eyeless replied, "Since the Sword Valley Master has already said so, it naturally counts. However, the five weaves will be up to us to decide."
Lu Yin raised a finger. "There's no need for five weaves. One is enough, and we'll decide which one we want."
Elder Eyeless did not reply, as he could not make the decision. He needed to contact Old Man Cangqiong.
At that moment, Old Nong, who was standing not too far away from Elder Eyeless, looked at his gadget, and his expression changed. "A Corpse King has appeared in the Autumnfrost family again."
Patriarch Eyeless' expression changed. "When?"
"Not just a moment ago, but the Second Nightking from the Fifth Mainland's Daynight clan also appeared."
Elder Eyeless and the others were not the only ones who knew that a Corpse King had appeared in the Autumnfrost family again. Lu Yin also knew that it had come from the Second Nightking.
The Second Nightking had actually encountered a Corpse King in the Autumnfrost family, and the two had fought and exposed each other's identities.
Lu Yin looked at the information on his gadget. The Second Nightking had sent a message saying that he and the Corpse King had only fought to test each other's strength, but they had also exposed each other's identities. Their identities were too easy to identify; one had scarlet eyes while the other had black and white hair.
Lu Yin's gaze turned solemn. Sure enough, a Corpse King had gone to the Autumnfrost family, and that item was extremely important.
This information was dismissed.
Xi was far more important than the Great Eastern Alliance, so Elder Eyeless immediately reported this to Old Man Cangqiong.
A day later, the Second Nightking quietly returned to the border and met with Lu Yin.
"What happened?" Lu Yin asked.
The Second Nightking stretched out his right arm and saw that there was a bloody wound on his wrist that was so deep that the bone was visible. "An absolute expert."
"A Corpse King?"
Lu Yin was shocked. Although the Second Nightking had not fully recovered, his power level was close to a million. Otherwise, he would not have been able to hide from Master Yuan. For someone with such power to be injured in a single exchange showed just how strong the opponent was.
The Second Nightking explained, "I accidentally bumped into him. The Autumnfrost family has offended too many people, and one of them went to the Autumnfrost family to kick them while they were down. I wasn't too far away, and I saw the Corpse King attack with my own eyes. He annihilated the entire family and interrogated them for some information. Out of curiosity, I wanted to know what he was interrogating, and I was discovered by the Corpse King. We fought, and it was definitely a Corpse King with a power level of a million."
"How did you get exposed as well?" Lu Yin was dissatisfied.
The Second Nightking gritted his teeth. "I would have died if I hadn't used my full strength against a Corpse King of that level. Even if that Corpse King wasn't at the level of the Seven Skygods, he wasn't far from it."
The Second Nightking clearly did not understand the Seven Skygods. From what Lu Yin knew, the Seven Skygods were definitely not as simple as they seemed. There were twelve Marquises on the other side of the Astral Tree Domain, and the Witch Spirit God was able to make them listen to his arrangements. One could only imagine the status of the Seven Skygods.
Lu Yin looked to the west, where another Corpse King had appeared at the Autumnfrost family residence. Even an idiot would know that there was something that the Neohuman Alliance wanted there. The Sixth Mainland must be having a headache right now.
Both the Corpse King and the Second Nightking had appeared at the Autumnfrost family residence, and this news had shaken the entire Sixth Mainland.
After the four Venerables discussed this matter, Old Man Cangqiong personally headed to the Autumnfrost family residence to investigate. They had naturally guessed that the Autumnfrost family had something important, and it was easy to find the problem with the device by investigating the Autumnfrost family's past deeds.
Old Man Cangqiong had also headed to the Autumnfrost family residence to find out what the device was for.
The Celestial Imprint descended upon the Autumnfrost family residence, causing all the cultivators in the area to tremble.
Old Man Cangqiong was like a sun that illuminated the entire Autumnfrost family's territory. However, the four Venerables were still four Venerables, and it was easy for them to overlook what was beneath their feet.
For example, Old Man Cangqiong could casually crush the black crystal fragment, so he did not care about it at all. The Neohuman Alliance had clearly not come for the black crystal fragment, or else they would not have taken it away. They had plenty of time to spare.
Many people had also thought of this, and Lu Yin was even more clear on the Neohuman Alliance's goal. He estimated that the Neohuman Alliance was frantically searching for anyone who had visited the Autumnfrost family residence, as they were afraid that the Neohuman Alliance would find them. Lu Yin stared at the black crystal fragment for a while before activating his gadget.
…
Lin Dong was a self-respecting person. He had been born into an ordinary family, and he had cultivated as an ordinary person. However, he had accidentally learned a cultivation method and embarked on the path of cultivation. After a hundred years, he had finally joined the Autumnfrost family as a Limiteer.
To be honest, he had only reached the Limiteer realm after a hundred years, and his aptitude was very ordinary. He did not have any status in the Autumnfrost family, and he was only a minor character who did odd jobs. This was especially true when the Autumnfrost family had become the hegemon of the Bloodburn Realm and recruited many experts. Lin Dong had been sent to a corner, where he had to watch over the creation of a giant device every day. He was not allowed to leave, and there was no one he could communicate with.
Lin Dong believed that he had his own self-respect, and he firmly believed that he would one day break through to become an Explorer and become a space-exploring powerhouse. Once he took that step, his future would be limitless.
Thus, when the device was destroyed, various top-notch powerhouses clashed in outer space, and everyone fled in all directions, Lin Dong had taken a spacecraft to return with a giant black crystal fragment.
