"No need, I'm not interested in meeting him. Since Half-Ancestor Nine Luminaries doesn't want us to fight here, then we'll leave first," Lu Yin said. He wanted to leave Nine Luminaries, not because he was afraid that Nine Luminaries would attack him. At this point, it was unlikely that Nine Luminaries would attack him. Lu Yin was afraid that Lan Xian would recognize him and demand his blood.
Although he didn't know why Lan Xian wanted his blood, it couldn't be a good thing.
"I hope that the three of you can leave the Daosource Sect's ruins as soon as possible. Also, don't spread the news that there is an astral source here. Can the three of you do that?"
He Luo Mavis raised an eyebrow and said coldly, "So what if I can't do it?
It's our freedom to come or not. "
Nine Brilliance's face darkened.
He Luo Mavis had acknowledged Lu Yin, and her attitude towards him had changed. Although Nine Glories was a Half-Ancestor, from He Luo Mavis's perspective, he was only a higher realm than them. If he wasn't a Half-Ancestor, then Nine Glories wouldn't even have the qualifications to stand on the same level as them. Besides, she also hated the people from the Sixth Mainland.
Lu Yin was speechless. This Heluo Mavis had a very bad temper, and she was completely different from the other Mavis clansmen. Although Yuhua Mavis had a fiery temper at times, she was usually very ladylike. It was best for him to leave quickly, as he did not want to provoke the Nine Luminaries right now. "I agree. Don't worry, I won't announce this to the outside world." He could announce to his own people that the people from the Great Eastern Alliance were his own people.
Nine Brilliance's expression softened when he heard Lu Yin's words, and he shot a cold glance at He Luo Mavis. If it weren't for the fact that the humans were united against the Eternals, he wouldn't have been so courteous. He would have captured all of these dao disciples and forced them to hand over their ancient inheritances.
"Half-Ancestor Nine Luminaries, I'll take my leave first. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about what happened here," Lu Yin said before walking away under Nine Luminaries' calm gaze. There was a teleportation beam there, but he didn't know where it would teleport him, so it was best to leave first.
Nine Lights did not stop him.
Chu Yuan took a deep look at Lu Yin, as he could tell that Lu Yin was avoiding the Nine Luminaries. This person had purposely mentioned that he was a Dao Disciple of the Fifth Mainland in order to mislead the Nine Luminaries into thinking that Lu Yin had come from the Above Heaven Sect era like them.
Although he could tell, Chu Yuan did not expose it. There was no need for him to show goodwill to the Nine Luminaries.
His appearance was as gentle as jade, but he was actually as arrogant as He Luo Mavis, Sky Jia Lan, and the others. He looked down on the people of this era. So what if they were Half Ancestors? Given enough time, he would definitely become Ancestor, let alone a mere Half Ancestor.
At this moment, the void distorted, and Lan Xian walked out. "Half-Martial Ancestor Nine Luminaries, what's wrong?"
"Three Daoists from the Era of Above Heaven are fighting, so we can only let them leave first."
Lan Xian nodded. If it had been in the past, these people would not have been able to escape. However, it was not the right time to attack them now. Not to mention the threat of the Eternals, those ancient powerhouses were difficult to deal with. Who knew what kind of people had come? Those Elysium Sect Leaders were not to be trifled with.
Hmm?
Suddenly, Lan Xian saw Lu Yin walking towards the teleportation beam. His back?
"Stop right there!" Lan Xian barked as she stared at him.
Lu Yin turned around, and his withered corpse appearance startled Lan Xian. She stared at him. "You're Lu Yin?"
"Lu Yin?" Nine Lights was shocked.
Lu Yin's heart sank. "I'm a Dao Child of the Fifth Mainland."
In the distance, a cultivator from the Sixth Mainland shouted, "Reporting to the Half-Progenitor! He's Lu Yin!"
Nine Glories was enraged when he heard this. Bastard, he actually lied to him.
He didn't hesitate to charge towards the teleportation beam, but he was still less than two meters away. This distance wasn't too far for him, and it was even less for Lan Xian.
He saw his surroundings.
Cherry blossoms filled the sky, and the sound of a three-string drum filled his ears. Lu Yin was aghast; this was troublesome. Within his inner world, he shouted, "Lan Xian, don't you want my blood?
Those two's blood are even more precious. One is a descendant of the Primogenitor, and the other is a descendant of the Mother Tree. "
Lan Xian was astonished, and she subconsciously looked at Chu Yuan and Heluo Mavis.
Chu Yuan and Heluo Mavis were at a loss. What descendant of the Primogenitor?
What descendant of the Mother Tree?
With Lu Yin's strength, it was impossible for him to escape from a Half-Progenitor's inner world. Fortunately, he had been prepared, and he had brought along the Styx before entering.
The Styx was very strange. It looked like a river and was liquid, but it was also solid. It could be grasped in one's hand or hidden in one's bosom.
Lu Yin stepped onto the Styx and instantly disappeared into the teleportation beam.
He had upgraded the Styx three times, and its maximum speed was not any slower than the Second Nightking's. The Second Nightking was a peak Emissary second only to a Half-Progenitor.
Even Lan Xian couldn't stop Lu Yin from escaping. He couldn't escape from a distance of two meters, but he could use the Styx's speed to escape.
Nine Glories had originally wanted to attack, as he didn't have any ill intentions towards Lu Yin. He was just angry that he had been tricked. However, when he saw Lan Xian's inner world, he thought that he had a good chance of succeeding. He hadn't expected that Lu Yin would still be able to escape. Where did this brat get so many strange external objects?
Lan Xian was annoyed, as she had been distracted by Lu Yin's words. His words had been too shocking, as he had mentioned the Primogenitor and the Mother Tree.
She stared at Chu Yuan and Heluo Mavis with an unsightly expression.
Chu Yuan and Heluo Mavis were currently in Lan Xian's inner world, looking at the brilliant cherry blossoms. They were absolutely beautiful, but also very dangerous.
"Gentlemen, is Lu Yin speaking the truth?"
Lan Xian stared at the two.
Chu Yuan didn't understand. "What does this Half-Progenitor mean?"
"Who is the Primogenitor's descendant?"
Lan Xian asked. Ever since she had become a Half-Progenitor, she knew that the Primogenitor was not just a legend. There was a statue of the Primogenitor in the Sixth Mainland's Daosource Sect. Of course, she had once suspected that the Primogenitor had been fabricated by the later generations and that this statue was fake. However, ever since people from the Era of the Above Heaven Sect had appeared, she knew that the Primogenitor truly existed.
There were also cultivators from the Era of the Above Heaven Sect in the Sixth Mainland, and some of them were from the Sixth Mainland as well.
The more she understood, the more excited Lan Xian became. If one of these two was truly a descendant of the Primogenitor, then the value of his blood would be much higher than Lu Yin's.
Chu Yuan calmly replied, "The Primogenitor has no descendants. If there is one, it would be a descendant, not a descendant."
Lan Xian frowned. "Lu Yin lied to me?"
Heluo Mavis snorted. "This is the first time I've seen someone who can lie so easily."
"Then, who is the Mother Tree's descendant?"
Lan Xian asked again.
Heluo Mavis rolled her eyes. "How could the Mother Tree have a descendant?"
Lan Xian was furious, as she had been tricked. The words "Primogenitor" and "Mother Tree" had been too shocking, and her attention had been diverted.
"Since you knew that he was Lu Yin, why didn't you say anything?"
Nine Lights angrily rebuked and glared at the two.
Chu Yuan remained calm. "Who he is has nothing to do with us. I acknowledge him as the Fifth Mainland's Dao Child."
"I acknowledge him as well," Heluo Mavis added.
Nine Lights was furious as well, as these two's unreasonable arrogance had allowed Lu Yin to deceive him.
"Pass down my orders. Have the person who left as soon as possible pass down the message. Distribute futons to all Imprinters so that they can enter the Daosource Sect's ruins to replenish their astralsources."
Lu Yin stepped forward to reveal that the Daosource Sect's ruins contained astralsources, and the total amount of astralsources here exceeded the amount that he and Lan Xian needed to replenish. Rather than benefiting the Fifth Mainland, it would be better to let the Sixth Mainland's cultivators replenish their astralsources.
Nine Lights grew angry when he recalled Lu Yin's words. That bastard had said twice that he would not announce this to the public. Only a fool would believe his words.
Lan Xian looked deeply at Chu Yuan and Heluo Mavis. "I heard that you're both Dao Children. Does that mean that your families aren't too far off from the Lu family?
Even if they aren't, it shouldn't be too far off. "
Heluo Mavis proudly replied, "My Mavis family is the family at the helm of the Second Mainland, while the Lu family is the family at the helm of the Fifth Mainland. Our statuses are equal."
Lan Xian looked at Chu Yuan.
Chu Yuan was much more cautious than Heluo Mavis. Considering Lu Yin's words before he had escaped and Lan Xian's strange attitude, he calmly replied, "I'm just a normal person."
Heluo Mavis sneered. "Chu Yuan, when did you become so humble? You're the only Dao Child among us who has been received by the Progenitor. Your innate gift is extraordinary."
Nine Lights and Lan Xian were shocked. He had actually been received by the Progenitor?
Chu Yuan's expression turned ugly. Could this foolish woman not see the situation clearly?
It was no wonder that she was known as the most arrogant person in the history of the Mavis family.
Lan Xian smiled and heaved a sigh of relief. Although Lu Yin had managed to escape, these two weren't bad either. The Mavis family was a race that the Sixth Mainland had always wanted to capture. When the Sixth Mainland had invaded the Fifth Mainland, the Sixth Mainland had issued an order to capture the Mavis family members.
It was rumored that the Mavis family could control all the plants in the universe, and their bloodline wasn't any weaker than the Lu family's.
However, the other Dao Child had actually been received by the Progenitor. Regardless of his background, just his innate gift alone was enough to rival everything.
Lan Xian slowly descended and faced Chu Yuan and Heluo Mavis.
…
Elsewhere, Lu Yin had arrived at a barren mountain through a teleportation beam, and he didn't even look back as he searched for the next beam to escape.
He didn't know if Lan Xian would chase after him, but if she did, then he wouldn't be able to escape.
A mere few meters required the Styx to accelerate in order to escape. Even if this distance was extended to ten meters, it still wouldn't be enough for him to escape from Lan Xian's inner world.
There were some dangerous places in the Daosource Sect ruins, but with Lu Yin's current strength, these dangers were nothing to worry about.
After passing through several teleportation beams, he arrived at the seaside, where the Mountain and Sea Inheritance lay.
He exhaled and looked up. Jiu Yao and Lan Xian had arrived, and they had also recognized him. They would definitely think of a way to replenish the Sixth Mainland's astralsources. If the Eternals hadn't been trapped outside the Starfall Sea, then they would have shared the astralsources here with the Fifth Mainland's Half-Ancestors in order to deal with the threat posed by the Eternals. But now that the Eternals were trapped outside the Starfall Sea, the crisis had been temporarily alleviated, and the human race's internal conflicts had erupted, so it wouldn't be so easy for the Fifth Mainland's Half-Ancestors to recover their astralsources here.
There was still more than half a month before Lu Yin left the Daosource Sect ruins, and that was enough time for the Sixth Mainland's experts to recover their astralsources. Even if they had enough astralsources, it might not be enough for Kui Luo, Third Uncle, and the others to recover. Since that was the case, Lu Yin could only try the method that he had previously thought of.
When he had been absorbing the cauldron qi in the Nine Cauldrons' space, Lu Yin had come up with an idea.
The essence of the Nine Yang Cauldron Transformation was to gather astralsources and use the cauldron qi as a guide to release the astralsources' explosive power. Before that power was released, the astralsources were still astralsources. In that case, could he use the Nine Yang Cauldron Transformation battle technique to gather astralsources and not release them?
This conjecture was somewhat whimsical, but Lu Yin still wanted to try it out.
