He looked at Annihilation's brand on the platform and did some quick calculations. There were quite a few powerhouses who could be appointed, and there were seven Envoys. Ye Wang and Annihilation were the most powerful of them all, but neither of them was stable.
Leaf King had lost the ability to absorb the Mother Tree's matter, and even though he had many battle techniques, it was impossible for him to reach the level where he could fight against Lu Yin. Ember, on the other hand, relied on the True Scripture of Eon Evolution, and there were many places where the Scripture of Eon Evolution could not be used, such as the Astral Tree.
It would be great if he could pick an extremely strong person, such as Xia Ji.
Of course, this was just a thought. Xia Ji was a Half-Ancestor, and even if he died, Lu Yin didn't know whether or not he would be able to appoint a new general.
Annihilation's death had resolved the knot in Big Sis' heart, and now that Lu Yin had chosen him, he had played his role. In the end, his corpse would definitely be used by the Home of the Gods, and that would have nothing to do with Lu Yin.
"I'll give Annihilation's corpse to you. The Home of the Gods owes me another favor."
Mirror God finally reacted. "Alliance Master Lu, you told me that the statue's location was fake. Can you tell me the real location?"
Lu Yin had originally wanted to keep him in suspense, but after thinking about it, he realized that he had used the Mirror God to lure out the Violet Deity and had even taken away her candle. That candle might very well be the Candle God, and it would be embarrassing to keep him in suspense.
"Sure, but that's that. I'll tell you where the statue is to make up for lying to you. What about saving the Home of the Gods?
What if I helped you get rid of Annihilation? "Lu Yin asked.
The Mirror God bitterly wanted to say something.
"Forget it, I'll just treat this as a favor from a friend. After all, my relationship with your Home of the Gods is pretty good."
The Mirror God swallowed the words he wanted to say. As for the candle, he was too embarrassed to ask for it.
"The statue is in the burial garden."
Mirror God was astonished. "A burial garden?"
Lu Yin nodded. "If the burial grounds reopen, then send some people in to search for them. However, I have to remind you that there's an extremely powerful person overseeing the place. He's at least on the same level as the Second Nightking, and he might even be a Half-Progenitor. If you get too close, then you might be turned into a statue and forced to kneel there and pray. Be careful."
The Mirror God smiled bitterly. It was actually in the Burial Garden. When would he be able to see it?
Not to mention moving back.
Lu Yin might as well not have said anything.
The main hall of the Home of the Gods had undergone a battle, and all the mirrors in the Home of the Gods had been shattered. The disciples outside naturally sensed this, but they couldn't enter.
After Lu Yin and the Second Nightking left, Tai Yi Shen and the other disciples entered the main hall. When they saw Annihilation's corpse, they were shocked. "Mirror God, this is Annihilation, the traitor?"
The Mirror God nodded. Her face was still a little pale. Behind her, the Wind God lowered her head. She hadn't been executed. The Home of the Gods couldn't afford to lose two Emissaries in a row. Otherwise, if the outside world found out, it would likely attract enemies.
"Why is Ember here?"
Xiao Bai was terrified.
The disciples of the Home of the Gods stared blankly at the Mirror God.
"I don't know how that traitor managed to sneak in and ambush me, but I killed him and hung his corpse outside the Home of the Gods. Anyone who betrays the Home of the Gods or is hostile to the Home of the Gods can't be spared."
"Yes." The disciples of the Home of the Gods grew excited.
The Mirror God sighed as he watched the excited disciples leave. Lu Yin was gone, but the candle was still with him. He had to think of a way to get it back, but what could he do?
Right now, the Home of the Gods couldn't even compare to the Eastern Alliance.
The Alliance was far inferior, let alone Lu Yin.
"Your punishment will be postponed. What happened today must not be leaked. Do you understand?"
The Mirror God said coldly.
The Wind God hurriedly knelt. "This disciple understands."
Lu Yin left the Home of the Gods without delay and headed straight for the Cosmic Sea.
He knew that Xia Ji was furious, and his hatred for him had reached a peak. However, Lu Yin didn't care. Xia Ji wouldn't attack him, and he was even worried that Lu Yin would expose the secret that the Violet God was a clone.
Right now, the most important thing was the Cosmic Tree.
Lu Yin had made all the necessary preparations for the upcoming battle. The internal cleansing was going smoothly, and there wasn't anything else that he needed to do. Now, he just had to wait for the fifth tower to be completed and his reputation to reach its peak in the history of the Fifth Mainland.
While waiting for the fifth tower to be completed, it was time to roll his die.
As his cultivation increased, the use of Six Pips became even more obvious.
The cultivation world was structured like a tower, and the higher one went, the fewer people there were. With Lu Yin's current power level, any random person he merged with would be an absolute powerhouse who was qualified to know the secrets of this universe. There was a high chance that he would merge with another powerhouse from the Cosmic Tree Expeditionary Army to delay their attack on the Fifth Mainland.
The Second Nightking moved quickly, and it didn't take long for the Cosmic Sea to appear in the distance.
The fifth tower was built at the center of the Cosmic Sea's abyss.
At this moment, the fifth tower was already under construction. Although it was huge, it was being built by cultivators. The Hall of Honor, Leon's Armada, and the Great Eastern Alliance worked together, so it would take at most one or two months for the fifth tower to be completed.
This was under the premise that they had enough materials. If they had enough materials, the fifth tower would be built even faster.
Powerful cultivators could move mountains, fill seas, and shatter the heavens. If they put their strength into construction, it would be very efficient.
Countless ships were anchored around the abyss, and as the fifth tower was being built, many smart people built artificial islands and docking ports. This place would definitely become one of the most prosperous places in the entire universe.
Anyone with a brain would do something here, but they would have to pay Leon's Armada. The abyss belonged to Leon's Armada, and it should be said that the entire Cosmic Sea belonged to Leon's Armada, except for the special place where the army was stationed.
Without Leon's Armada's permission, no one from the Cosmic Sea was allowed to bring anyone else in. Otherwise, they would become enemies with Leon's Armada.
These were the rules, and even the behemoths of the Neoverse did not want to break them.
There was a thud as Lu Yin landed on the deck of Leon's Armada's warship. All around him, many cultivators from Leon's Armada were on high alert, and when they saw that it was Lu Yin, they greeted him.
There was a whoosh as Tyrant Blade slashed out from within the cabin.
Lu Yin was speechless. "Captain, there's no need to be like this every time we meet." He then raised a hand and grabbed the blade. The next moment, Highsage Leon quickly appeared and gripped the blade with both hands.
Highsage Leon's power level was about the same as the Sea King's, and if he went all out, he could challenge a powerhouse with a power level of 100,000. Lu Yin was the same, but he was not using his full power.
If it was a battle, the two would have a spectacular fight, but this was a contest of strength, and Lu Yin was helpless. Of all things to compete in, they just had to compete in strength. His current strength was so great that even a powerhouse with a power level of a million could not compare to him.
However, he still had to give the captain some face. Thinking about it, Lu Yin took a step back and his face flushed red. "Captain, I can't hold on any longer.
I can't. "
Highsage Leon suddenly raised the blade and slammed it down on the deck, causing the abyss to tremble. "Little Seven, when did you become so fake? You've already surpassed me."
Everyone who heard Highsage Leon's words were shocked, and they all stared at Lu Yin in disbelief. How old was this kid? How had he already surpassed the captain?
Even further away, outside the abyss, countless people looked at Highsage Leon's warship. They saw the domineering figure that was three meters tall, and they also saw the tiny Lu Yin. However, at this moment, that tiny Lu Yin had already surpassed Highsage Leon, and he had become one of the top powerhouses of the Fifth Mainland.
Liu Shaoqiu was also outside the abyss, and he looked at Leon's warship with a complicated expression. He had competed with Lu Yin in the past, but now, there was no longer any possibility of competition. He had come here to help the Sword Sect take away the Thirteen Swords inheritance.
Ling Gong had also come, but she did not reveal herself. She looked at Lu Yin and snorted. She had come here for battle force insights, as she was interested in battle force and a spear technique that suited her.
Wen Sansi, Wen Qian'er, and a large group of cultivators from the Wen family had also arrived. They had come to take away the Literary Prison.
There were too many inheritances from the fifth pagoda. Both the Innerverse and the Outerverse, both familiar and unfamiliar, had all arrived, and they were all waiting for the fifth pagoda to open.
Lu Yin had discovered these people as soon as he had arrived at the abyss, and this was exactly what he had wanted.
If the Astral Fruit Tree had not forced him to take the final step, then the fifth pagoda would have been his greatest contribution to the Fifth Mainland. He would have enlightened the world, and just as Xuan Jiu had said, it might have changed his future.
Everyone had thought of doing good deeds, but very few had actually done so. Only those who had done so would know how wonderful it felt.
When the fifth pagoda had been constructed, Lu Yin had already experienced this feeling. He only hoped that he would not have to take the final step.
Humans were selfish, and while he could enlighten the world, he did not want to be abandoned by them.
Lu Yin's arrival caused Leon's Armada to become very lively, and the various captains gathered around him.
"Captain, we still haven't properly thanked Little Seven for the battle at the Cosmic Sea. If it weren't for him, our Leon's Armada would not have dominated the Cosmic Sea. Little Seven, let me give you a toast." Brother Hao, the captain of the Merfolk Squadron, stood up.
Lu Yin hurriedly returned the toast. "I'm also a member of Leon's Armada, so this is what I should do."
"Little Seven, I'll give you a double toast. If it weren't for you, I would have died during the battle at the Cosmic Sea." Sister Fei stood up and thanked Lu Yin gratefully.
Lu Yin also returned the toast. "It's a pity that I wasn't able to save Elephant King and Boulder." He still remembered the simple and honest Elephant King and the stone helmeted Boulder. They had both died during the battle at the Cosmic Sea.
"Life and death are predestined. That's their fate," the Ghost Doctor said in a hoarse voice. She stooped and looked at Lu Yin in admiration. "Picking you up was the right decision."
"That brat Qingqing left in a fit of pique and took you away. You almost couldn't return," Sister Fei grumbled.
Xiao Zi smiled. "Speaking of Qingqing, I heard that she had a lot of fun at the World Mountains."
Highsage Leon slammed his wine glass on the table. "That brat is so troublesome. Keep a close eye on her and don't get thrown out of the World Mountains if she causes trouble."
Sister Fei snorted. "Let's see who dares."
Lu Yin enjoyed the atmosphere as he watched the excited conversations of the crowd.
Not long after, Highsage Leon waved his hand to chase everyone away.
"Wait," Lu Yin called out. Under everyone's puzzled gazes, the General Appointment Platform appeared. "With my blood, I summon the general."
