Lu Yin was excited. A white crystal card was second only to a top-grade gray crystal card. "How much?"
"I don't know," Shang Qing replied.
Lu Yin accepted the card expectantly.
The two looked up at the same time and saw a person rush out of the palace, only to be swatted to death by the corpse. They had seen such a scene many times, and they were already numb to it.
All of a sudden, the Giant Zombie Beast stopped moving.
Lu Yin and Shang Qing exchanged glances, but the corpse never stopped moving.
The next moment, the palace tilted, and the corpse straightened its back. Then, many items fell out of the palace, most of which were corpses.
Lu Yin and Shang Qing were stunned. Was this a stretch?
A corpse could stretch?
The corpse only stretched for a short while before it continued to stagger forward, leaving behind a pile of items on the ground.
Lu Yin and Shang Qing hurried over. In another direction, not far away, someone looked up at the corpse as it walked past. The person stood there quietly and seemed to be about to leave. At that moment, Lu Yin's domain happened to cover the person, and the person paused before slowly turning around.
Lu Yin, who had been picking up the leftovers, was suddenly startled. He stepped into Astral Source Universe and disappeared.
Shang Qing was flabbergasted. What had caused Lu Yin to not pick up the items?
Shang Qing knew Lu Yin well enough to know that something big must have happened. He wanted to chase after Lu Yin, but when he looked around, he did not know where Lu Yin had gone.
In the distance, that person looked up at the corpse as Lu Yin stepped out of Astral Source Universe. "You're still alive?
Starsibyl. "
This person was Starsibyl. Many people had thought that she was dead, and the Starsibyl Sect had disappeared. No one had expected her to appear here.
Starsibyl looked at Lu Yin and smiled. Her smile was devastatingly beautiful. "Brother Lu, we meet again."
Lu Yin looked at Starsibyl's smiling face. "I thought you guys were dead."
Starsibyl smiled. "The Neohuman Alliance needs us to find something for them. Why would they kill us?"
"So you're saying that the Starsibyl Sect was destroyed by you guys?" Lu Yin asked.
A light breeze brushed past her face, causing her hair to flutter. She tucked it behind her ear, revealing her snow-white neck. "That's the only way to avoid being captured by the Neohuman Alliance."
"Why not ask the Hall of Honor for help?"
"Does Brother Lu think that the Hall of Honor can protect us?
Or would Elder Chan appear personally?
Although my Starsibyl Sect has some influence, we are still unable to request the protection of a Half-Martial Ancestor powerhouse. How can we compare to Brother Lu? After the Autarch Tournament, the Sage Celestial Master personally appeared to protect you, and you've turned misfortune into fortune many times. "Starsibyl was envious.
"Where are you now?" Lu Yin asked.
Starsibyl bowed slightly. "The Eternals are too powerful. Even if Brother Lu has the power to protect himself, he might not have the power to protect my Starsibyl Sect. I hope that Brother Lu will not ask too many questions and allow my Starsibyl Sect to remain in peace. When the day comes that Brother Lu needs help, my Starsibyl Sect will definitely assist you with all of our strength. I also hope that Brother Lu will not forget our previous agreement."
Back then, Lu Yin had asked the Starsibyl Sect for a divination, and Starsibyl had asked Lu Yin to promise that he would preserve the Starsibyl Sect's last bit of hope when the human race faced a great calamity. This was the promise that Lu Yin had made to the Starsibyl Sect.
"I haven't forgotten, but what exactly is it?" Lu Yin was curious.
Starsibyl shook her head. "I don't know either. A great calamity will definitely come, but I can't predict what it will be."
"Then what makes you think that I can preserve the seed of your Starsibyl Sect?
I might not even be able to protect myself. "
Starsibyl's eyes lit up as she looked at Lu Yin. "Brother Lu, do you still remember when you were a part of the Starsibyl Academy?
Do you remember the Astral Combat Tournament and the Tournament of the Strongest? "
Lu Yin nodded. "Of course." Those two tournaments had made his name known throughout the universe to a certain extent, so how could he forget? He had also met Wang Yun in the Tournament of the Strongest, which had caused his identity as the Cosmic Tree to be exposed.
Starsibyl's lips curled up beautifully. "Back then, I wanted to divine Brother Lu's future, but Brother Lu wasn't within the scope of my divination. Thus, I divined the results of the Tournament of the Strongest and used them to check Brother Lu's future."
Lu Yin was astonished. "Check the future?
What do you mean? "
Starsibyl shook her head. "It's hard to explain. This is a point that I divined myself."
"The person who used this point to divine me back then should have been Starsibyl, Astral-1's leader, who studied with me in the Astral Combat Academy."
"She's one of my nine clones."
"So you're saying that you thought of me as someone who could be entrusted to you back then?" Lu Yin was bewildered, and his tone was filled with distrust.
Starsibyl smiled. "Of course not. It's just a point, or rather, a variable. I want to use you as a variable to perform more divinations."
"But you once helped Nightking Zhenwu," Lu Yin said.
Starsibyl looked at Lu Yin. "When Brother Lu fought with Nightking Zhenwu, I told you that that day was the most glorious day of his life, but it could also be the darkest day of his life. I also told you that I can't divine his future." Lu Yin stared at her.
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed. "So you didn't just use me as the point for your divination, but also Nightking Zhenwu?"
"More accurately, I used you as the point and Nightking Zhenwu as a reference to make a second divination because I couldn't directly divine you," Starsibyl explained.
Lu Yin did not understand Starsibyl's words at all, but he knew that Starsibyl had divined his future many times. The only difference was that she had not directly divined his future, but rather his enemies. This was also the reason why he had gotten close to Nightking Zhenwu.
"The first time was the Tournament of the Strongest, and the second time was Nightking Zhenwu. What was the third time?"
Lu Yin asked. He did not like being schemed against by others, but Starsibyl had never schemed against him before. She had only divined his enemies, which gave him a strange feeling.
Starsibyl bowed again. "The Dao of Divination cannot be explained clearly. Brother Lu, I have no ill intentions towards you, and I've even helped you in the past. I've even entrusted the future of the Starsibyl Sect to you. If Brother Lu needs anything in the future, the Starsibyl Sect will do our best to help. I hope that Brother Lu will treat us with sincerity."
Lu Yin muttered to himself for a moment. "Help me find a word."
"Please tell me, Brother Lu."
Lu Yin answered, "Turbid."
Starsibyl did not understand. "Turbid?
What does that mean? "
Lu Yin replied, "Just this word. Turbid means divination. Senior Zhu, please help me with the divination and tell me the results of your divination."
Starsibyl nodded. "Alright, since that's the case, I'll take my leave. By the way, Brother Lu, the Burial Garden Gate is dangerous, and the Neohuman Alliance will definitely do everything they can to destroy it. The Burial Garden implicates ancient secrets and even inheritances, and the Eternals will not allow it to exist. Brother Lu, be careful."
Lu Yin fell into deep thought as he watched Starsibyl leave. If possible, he wanted to force Starsibyl to tell him everything she knew, but some people could not be forced.
Furthermore, the Starsibyl Sect had indeed helped him several times, and he was not the type to bite the hand that fed him. He hoped that they would be able to divine some information about Turbid, but Lu Yin did not hold out much hope. Even Mister Mu could not find anything, so how could he count on the Starsibyl Sect?
That was impossible.
He just wanted to see how powerful the Starsibyl Sect was.
What could Turbid possibly lead to? When Xuan Jiu had divined for him, it had caused him to vomit blood. The Starsibyl Sect still had some ability.
The surface of the lake was too calm, and nothing could be seen from the outside. Lu Yin would have to throw a rock in to see if he could draw anything out.
Lu Yin planned to stir up a pool of spring water, and he hoped that the rock that was the Starsibyl Sect would be able to stir it up.
He returned to the area where the astral beast corpse had been stretching. Shang Qing was waiting for him, and there was also a cultivator squatting beside her, looking uneasy.
Lu Yin ignored the cultivator and picked up the rest of the loot. Most of the items that had dropped were corpses and weapons, but they were all very ordinary. It was obvious that they had been looted from a fight within the palace.
Lu Yin checked the cosmic rings of the corpses one by one and found two weapon fragments. Not bad, it seemed that he had not waited in vain.
"I- Can I leave now?
I didn't pick up anything, "the cultivator squatting on the ground asked in a trembling voice. He recognized that one of the two was called Shang Qing, and he represented the Hall of Honor. The other was even more terrifying, and he was the leader of the Great Eastern Alliance, Lu Yin. He cultivated in the western region of the Innerverse, and even though it was quite a distance from the Great Eastern Alliance, it was said that even the Chaosgods Sect had joined the Great Eastern Alliance, so it was only a matter of time before they joined.
Lu Yin glanced at the cultivator, and his gaze sent a chill down the cultivator's spine. He hurriedly said in fear, "Alliance Leader Lu, I didn't pick up anything. I only heard that there was a giant carrying a palace around, and I just happened to see it, so I came to take a look. I was caught by this lord as soon as I arrived. I really didn't pick up anything."
"You heard?
Who said that? "Lu Yin asked in surprise.
The cultivator replied, "It's all over the outside world. Some people say that there's a giant carrying an ancient palace around the Graveyard, and that it often drops precious treasures such as weapons, power vessels, and even legacy techniques."
Lu Yin frowned. "When did that happen?"
The cultivator thought about it. "A long time ago. The Graveyard opened not too long ago, so it should have been around ten days ago."
Ten days ago, Lu Yin had not seen this corpse, which meant that this place had already been exposed before he had arrived.
At that moment, a figure walked out of the palace on the corpse's back, tore through the void, and stepped out.
Lu Yin recognized this person; it was the seventh stage blacksmith. He hadn't died?
He had been inside for quite some time.
The seventh stage blacksmith was an Envoy, and he could use the Astral Source Universe to travel through the void. However, this was meaningless to the corpse, as it could shatter the void with a casual wave of its hand. Even if the blacksmith had tried to escape through the Astral Source Universe, it would have been useless.
Lu Yin felt a chill run down his spine, but the cultivator could not understand what had just happened. He had only seen the corpse casually wave its hand, and the void had exploded like a mosquito, causing blood to scatter everywhere.
"Alliance Leader Lu, Sir, I really didn't pick anything up. I just wanted to take a look. I swear that I will never spread the news that you two are here. Right, I can also use information to buy my life," the cultivator said in a panic.
Shang Qing was curious. "Information?"
The cultivator nodded and gulped. "Not far from where I came from, there's a Graveyard Gate."
Lu Yin turned to look at him, his eyes shining. "A Graveyard Gate that leads to the outside?"
The cultivator nodded. "Yes, but it's been occupied by an expert. If you want to leave, you have to hand over your cosmic ring."
Lu Yin and Shang Qing exchanged glances; an expert?
To them, only someone at Jiu Han's level could be considered an expert, and that was an Envoy. How many Envoys were there in the universe?
And how many of them had stepped into the Graveyard Gate?
