Lu Yin had no choice but to deal with the two who were willing to join the Eternals in order to hunt down the Ancients. He had confirmed that they were truly willing to join the Eternals, and he didn't care about dealing with such people. He then went to find Ku Lei and Lulu.
"What's this?"
Lulu cried out in surprise as she looked at the half-meter tall Mount Supreme. It looked like a model of a mountain.
"There's no other way. If you don't enter, you won't be able to return." Lu Yin shrugged and then smiled. "But the good news is that you won't be poisoned."
Ku Lei raised his brows. "Why didn't you say that from the start?"
Lulu looked at Lu Yin as well. "That's right. Wouldn't we have been able to return if we had been sucked in from the start?"
Lu Yin coughed. "Don't worry about the details. You'll be able to return safely once you enter, but …" He paused, and under the two's puzzled gazes, he continued, "Activating Mount Supreme requires a huge amount of resources. You know that."
Ku Lei didn't understand.
Lulu snorted. "How much do you need?"
Lu Yin looked at her fervently. "A lot."
"How much is a lot?"
"How much do you have?"
Lulu went on guard. "What do you mean? You want to activate this thing based on how much resources I have?
Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking. My Mavis family is rich, but we can't spend it casually. "
Lu Yin placed a hand on her shoulder and solemnly said, "I saved your life."
Lulu opened her mouth to say something, but no words came out. That was indeed the case. Without Lu Yin, she would have died. When she thought of this, she felt a little dejected. "I have 20 million star essence here."
Lu Yin's mouth twitched. He had thought that she had a lot of money, but she had wasted so much energy talking. "Give it all to me. Let me tell you, it's not enough."
Lulu was unhappy. "Then how much do you need?"
Lu Yin snorted. "This thing's internal defenses and power depend on how much star essence it uses. 20 million?
That's not even enough to activate it. "He then looked at Ku Lei.
Ku Lei was embarrassed. "I- I only have 10 million."
Lu Yin was speechless. "Even with the two of you combined, it's still so little?"
Thirty million star essence was not a small sum to anyone, especially Lulu and Ku Lei, who were only Enlighters. It was already quite good that they had so much money, and that was only because they had come from wealthy families. However, to the current Lu Yin, this amount of star essence was far too little. It wasn't even enough for a fraction of what he had. He exaggeratedly claimed that he had more than thirty billion star essence.
However, he didn't tell the two of them because he didn't want to scare them.
He was in a hurry to leave.
"Right, let me remind you that there are other people in Mount Supreme as well. Get along well with each other and don't cause any conflicts. Otherwise, you'll be the ones to suffer," Lu Yin said and threw Lulu and Ku Lei into Mount Supreme.
There were a total of five people in Mount Supreme. Long Xi, Wen First Scholar, Prince Gui Qian, Yun Tingting, and Liu Hao. To put it bluntly, these people were all stronger than Lulu and Ku Lei.
Mount Supreme didn't look big, but once you entered, you would know how big it was.
They all knew that this was the mountain from the Sovereign Tournament.
Lu Yin threw Lulu not too far away from Yun Tingting. Yun Tingting had a peaceful personality and wouldn't do anything to Lulu. Ku Lei was also thrown not too far away from Prince Gui Qian.
Ku Lei looked around at the gloomy surroundings and felt a little cold.
"Who are you?" a low and furtive voice sounded out. It was Prince Gui Qian.
Ku Lei frowned and looked around, but couldn't find anyone. He snorted and opened his hand, causing lightning to sweep out in all directions. "Who are you? Show yourself!"
The lightning was powerful and exploded in all directions, but it was immediately extinguished by the aura of death.
Ku Lei was shocked. "Aura of death?
Someone from the Specter Clan? "
Prince Gui Qian opened his golden eyes and appeared in front of Ku Lei. His eyes met Ku Lei's, and Ku Lei's mind buzzed as an uncontrollable fear descended upon him.
Ku Lei was very strong, and as the successor of the Seven Courts' Ku family, he was about the same level as the Ten Arbiters. Even though he had lost to many people, he was facing Prince Gui Qian, who had broken through to the Lower Realm and was an expert whose realm surpassed Ku Lei's.
Prince Gui Qian was about as strong as Long Xi and Nong Sanniang, and he was even stronger than the Ten Arbiters, let alone Ku Lei.
Ku Lei was suppressed by the golden eyes, and he tried to use his nine-lined battle force to break free. However, he was suppressed by the aura of death and could not retaliate.
"Who are you?"
Prince Gui Qian asked. Although he had suppressed Ku Lei, he had not been too ruthless. Being able to enter Mount Supreme meant that this person was someone that Lu Yin cared about, so Prince Gui Qian did not dare to do anything.
Ku Lei gritted his teeth and did not dare to meet Prince Gui Qian's golden eyes. Beads of sweat dripped down his forehead as he panted heavily.
Lu Yin put away Mount Supreme, as he was not worried about Ku Lei's safety. Prince Gui Qian would not dare to do anything, so he could use this opportunity to suppress Ku Lei.
This guy was sometimes too arrogant and ruthless, and Lu Yin could have just killed him. However, this guy was still useful, and he could use Ku Lei's mouth to let the Ku family know that when things reached an extreme, they would only move in the opposite direction. Furthermore, Ku Lei was unwilling to betray the human race, which was a bottom line that Lu Yin appreciated.
The next day, Lu Yin arrived at the western region's burial garden as promised.
Aside from him, Path Master Si and a few other Enlighters were also present. These people were all experts that were infinitely close to becoming Emissaries, and they were more than enough to hunt down someone with an ancient bloodline.
It didn't take long for Yang Kong to arrive and distribute the cloudconnection stones.
Lu Yin looked at the cloudconnection stone in his hand. This was a communication tool from the Cosmic Tree Realm, and he was surprised to find one here as well.
"This is a cloudconnection stone, and you can use it to communicate within the burial garden. Gadgets cannot be used in the burial garden," Yang Kong said and explained how to use it.
Lu Yin followed suit and pretended that this was his first time using it.
Yang Kong quickly led the group into the burial garden.
Even if two people were holding hands, they would end up in a random place after entering the burial garden.
This time, Lu Yin appeared in a wasteland, and the moment he appeared, he happened to be face to face with someone less than a meter away.
That person stared at Lu Yin blankly and blinked, "Um, hello."
Lu Yin looked at this person and saw that it was a young man. No, this person only looked young, but his eyes were cloudy, so he should not be young.
"Hello," Lu Yin said.
The person in front of him looked at Lu Yin with vigilance and a trace of fear in his eyes. Lu Yin's image was just too terrifying. "Well, goodbye." He then rushed off in a certain direction without even looking back. He even used a battle technique to distort the void. He was very decisive.
Lu Yin smiled and disappeared, reappearing in front of the person in the next moment. They were less than a meter away from each other again.
The person stopped with great difficulty, but if he hadn't, he would have bumped into Lu Yin. When he saw Lu Yin appear, his expression turned ugly and his voice was hoarse. He subconsciously gripped his weapon and stared at Lu Yin, "Um, um, you are?
A mummy? "
Lu Yin looked around, "Where is this?"
The person gulped, "I don't know, I'm just passing by. Um, can you not chase after me?
I'm in a hurry. "
"I'm in a hurry as well."
The person smiled.
"Then why are you chasing me?" the man asked with a bitter expression.
"I want to know what happened in the burial garden during this time," Lu Yin said.
The person was stunned, "You're not a mummy?"
"Can mummies talk?" Lu Yin asked.
"Yes. Rumor has it that a mummy spoke," the person said with certainty.
Lu Yin was surprised, "There are mummies that can talk?"
"Yes, someone said so," the person replied.
Lu Yin pressed the person down, "Come, tell me what happened in the burial garden during this time."
The person looked at Lu Yin with a horrifying gaze, but he did not dare to resist. The competition of speed from before was a good example, and he was definitely not a match for this monster. He helplessly replied, "I don't know much."
"Tell me everything you know," Lu Yin said.
Half a day later, the person left at lightning speed.
Lu Yin fell into deep thought. While he had been in the Starfall Sea, the burial garden had become more and more lively, mainly because the influx of ancient bloodlines had brought out many inheritances. Someone had even seen Progenitor Chen, and it seemed that Lu Yin's encounter with Progenitor Chen had not been a hallucination.
The influx of ancient bloodlines had opened up many inheritances, which had attracted many experts to the burial garden. As a direct result, the Sixth Mainland's Daosource Sect had been attacked.
There was one thing that Lu Yin was concerned about: Obscurely.
Legend had it that Obscurely had once obtained an inheritance and used his extraordinary strength to escape from an Emissary. This had shocked many people, and this was only the second time that an Enlighter had fought an Emissary and escaped.
The first was naturally Lu Yin, but he had not escaped. Instead, he had defeated an Emissary.
Lu Yin was curious; what kind of inheritance had Obscurely obtained?
He had actually been able to fight against an Emissary.
Lu Yin had reached his current level because of his extraordinary opportunities, but Obscurely had actually managed to catch up to him. The others must have been unwilling to be left out.
The Cloudconnect Stone trembled, and Yang Kong's image appeared. "Li Yanzi, where are you?"
Lu Yin replied, "I don't know. Where are you guys?"
Yang Kong replied, "Go and complete your own missions. Remember, the more you complete, the more benefits you'll receive in the future. The resources you want are endless." He then ended the call.
Lu Yin was disdainful. Endless?
He did not believe that. Even if he gathered all the star essence in the Fifth Mainland, he was not confident that he would be able to satisfy the die.
What he needed to do now was find the Burial Garden's Gate and leave.
With that in mind, Lu Yin headed in a certain direction, which happened to be the direction that Obscurely had left in. Since he did not know where to go, following that fellow would be the same.
…
Blazing Mist Flowzone, Ross Empire's fort. Wei Rong helplessly put down his gadget. "I still can't contact him."
Beside him, Qiong Xi'er rolled her eyes. "It's fine if you can't contact him. Wang Wen brought this upon himself, so he should deal with it himself."
Wei Rong smiled. "It might not be a disaster. Who knows, maybe we'll have another powerful Emissary in the near future."
Beneath the Ross Empire's fort, Xia Yi's limbs were bound, and his body had been pierced through by a spear. The tip of the spear had pierced through his body and nailed him to the wall.
Xia Yi's eyes were closed, and fresh blood dripped down the spear's body.
At this moment, a figure walked out of the void and arrived in front of Xia Yi. "The dignified Seven Courts, the head of the Xia family, has actually fallen to such a state."
Xia Yi opened his eyes, which were bloodshot. He viciously glared at the newcomer. "Who are you?"
"Someone who helped you."
