With Lu Yin's current status, even the former Ten Arbiters couldn't compete with him. To put it bluntly, Lu Yin's value was higher than Xing Kai's, regardless of Xing Kai's strength.
Xing Kai crashed into a corner of Mount Supreme, and Lu Yin walked out. After a while, Xing Kai groaned and clutched the back of his head with his right hand as he struggled to get up. His mind was in a daze, and he didn't know what was going on. Eh?
Where is this?
He looked around warily and suddenly turned around to look at Lu Yin.
Lu Yin had already returned to his original appearance.
When Xing Kai saw Lu Yin, his expression changed. "Lu Yin?"
Lu Yin smiled. "Long time no see, Xing Kai."
Xing Kai stared at Lu Yin in disbelief. "You … you're still alive?
Didn't you die? "
"Everyone says the same thing when they meet. It's quite unlucky. I'm not dead, and I'm living well." Lu Yin smiled.
Xing Kai stared at Lu Yin warily. "Where is this?
Are you the one who captured me? "
He didn't expect Lu Yin to capture him on Sword Mountain. Unless Team Yi's members arrived, no one on Sword Mountain could stop Lu Yin. Even though he didn't know Lu Yin's true strength, he estimated that he could deal with someone with a power level of 700,000 to 800,000.
Lu Yin shrugged. "Sorry, I was a little too harsh."
Xing Kai stared at Lu Yin and said in a low voice, "Why did you capture me?
If you have a conflict with the Three Ultimates, you should look for Sect Master Hen Xin and Team Yi, not me. "
Lu Yin said, "I want to cultivate battle force. The Three Ultimates' battle force."
Xing Kai looked at Lu Yin and thought of something. "You're one of those six."
"Smart," Lu Yin praised.
Xing Kai shook his head. "Sect Master Hen Xin suggested that Team Yi teach the Fifth Mainland's cultivators how to cultivate battle force, but the other Sky Gates objected and proposed a bet. This has already been decided. Lu Yin, you sneaked into the Three Ultimates to learn battle force, which means that the Lu Sky Gate isn't confident in winning against us. That's also against the rules."
Lu Yin said, "I've only been back for a few days, and the bet was made before that. I didn't break the rules, and I already entered the Three Ultimates' territory before the bet was made. Learning battle force and domains were all decided before the bet was made."
"I won't teach you," Xing Kai said directly.
Lu Yin frowned. "Are you really going to join the Three Ultimates Elysium and be loyal to Hen Xin?"
Xing Kai said seriously, "When I joined the Three Ultimates Sky Gate, Clan Leader Hen Xin came to see me in person. He told me not to reveal the cultivation method of Battle Aura. I promised him that I wouldn't reveal it even if you killed me."
Lu Yin smiled. "Don't worry, I don't want to kill you. I just want you to stay here for a few days." He then took out the bone and used Death Mask to disguise himself.
Xing Kai stared blankly at Lu Yin, who had taken his form. His mouth was wide open.
He was not good at expressing his feelings, so he was speechless at this moment.
"What do you think? Don't we look alike? No one below the Half-Ancestor level can see through me," Lu Yin boomed. Even his voice, tone, and mannerisms were exactly the same as Xing Kai's. Lu Yin did not seek to obtain the greatest secret of Scar Heart's cultivation using Xing Kai's identity. He only wanted to obtain the cultivation method of Battle Force, and it would be best if he could obtain more.
"You're ruthless," Xing Kai said bitterly before suddenly attacking Lu Yin with a punch.
Lu Yin raised his hand and easily caught Xing Kai's fist in his palm.
Xing Kai's physical body was extremely powerful, and he was unrivaled among his peers. However, he was facing Lu Yin, someone who had relied on his physical strength to break through the Warring States Period. No one could compare to him in terms of physical strength.
Xing Kai's fist was caught by Lu Yin, and as Lu Yin tightened his grip, Xing Kai gritted his teeth, but he did not make a sound. His fist was about to be crushed.
Lu Yin let go, and Xing Kai retreated a few steps, panting heavily. The difference between them was too great.
"You're in the ten-man team that the Three Ultimates Elysium is competing against the other Elysium, right? Sorry, but you can't go," Lu Yin said.
Xing Kai lowered his arm, "Aside from the methods from ancient times, the most important thing to cultivate battle force is one's spirit. It's true that our era has passed it down, but we lack a common method." He stared at Lu Yin, "If you want to improve your battle force, you can only use your spirit. There are no shortcuts."
Lu Yin's expression changed, "I know. I want to cultivate the Warring States Period, but I've never thought of taking shortcuts. You can rest here. If you're bored," he pointed into the distance, "There are many experts here. As long as you're not afraid of being beaten up, you can go and try." He then left Mount Supreme.
When he returned to Sword Mountain, Lu Yin put Mount Supreme away. He had already taken on Xing Kai's appearance, and he didn't know what this identity would bring him. Sword Mountain was the furthest he had traveled in the Three Ultimates Elysium, and he wanted to learn as much as he could from the members of Team Yi. If he was exposed, he would have to run, and he was confident that he could escape from them.
Next, Lu Yin looked at the wooden house that he had previously assigned to Blackie. He stepped out and covered himself with six-lined battle force as he appeared above Sword Mountain. He then pressed down with a single palm, and with a loud bang, Lu Yin's palm crushed everything within a hundred meters of the wooden house into powder. Even that small space was torn apart.
The others all looked in the direction of the wooden house.
A middle-aged man walked out of the void and looked at Lu Yin in shock, "Captain Xing Kai, what are you doing?"
Lu Yin was indifferent, "This person is a descendant of my enemy, so he must die."
The middle-aged man was the only cultivator on Sword Mountain who had displayed rune lines comparable to a first tribulation origin cultivator. He hadn't used battle force or a domain to reach this level, but rather spiritual force. He had come from the era of the Above Sky Sect, and although he wasn't a member of Team Yi, he was still a wandering cultivator who specialized in spiritual force.
Aside from the sect masters of the Twelve Gates, there were many other cultivators who had been sealed in ice, and he had been one of them.
After hearing Xing Kai's words, the middle-aged man didn't pursue the matter any further, "Since he's a descendant of your enemy, it's fine if he's killed, but don't act recklessly next time. At least make it clear that this kid has some talent since he passed the test."
Xing Kai didn't reply and simply turned to leave.
Lu Yin didn't understand Xing Kai, but he had heard from Wen Sansi and the others that Xing Kai was a simple and honest person who wasn't good at communicating with others. This was why he remained silent most of the time. It wasn't that he was cold, but that he really didn't know how to communicate.
In order to not reveal any flaws, Lu Yin naturally remained silent as well.
The middle-aged man didn't suspect anything and returned to his residence.
Not too far away from the destroyed wooden house, Xi Yue watched Xing Kai's figure disappear. He had changed his appearance again and replaced Xing Kai, but she didn't know what to say.
Xing Kai had once been one of the Ten Aces, but now that he had been replaced, he didn't react at all. Was the difference too great?
Even further away, there were four other people who had passed the test, and they were all shocked when they saw the black wooden house disappear. They all shrank back into their houses, feeling uneasy.
They hadn't thought that their lives would be in danger here.
After dealing with Blackie, Lu Yin returned to the pond and waited for Team Yi to arrive, but he couldn't just wait.
Since Xing Kai had stabilized his six-lined battle force throughout his body, it meant that this method was useful. Since he had nothing else to do, he might as well roll his die and try this method.
He stepped into the pond and reached the bottom. There was no one on Sword Mountain who could monitor him now.
He raised his hand, and the die appeared and slowly spun. After some thought, he placed his cosmic ring to the side.
He couldn't roll Enhance right now. Even though he wanted to use Enhance to understand the current situation, he didn't have much star essence left in his cosmic ring, and it wasn't like it had been twenty years ago.
The Astral Source Universe had been devoured, and the value of star essence had increased many times over. If he wanted to obtain more, he would have to go to the Cosmic Tree Realm, so he had to use his star essence sparingly.
He watched the die slowly spin and then stop at Enhance.
It was useless. He tapped it again, and it spun slowly before stopping at Enhance. Enhance. Time Stop.
Lu Yin grabbed his cosmic ring and entered the Time Stop space.
He felt much more at ease after arriving here, and he began to cultivate his battle force. First, he started with one-lined battle force. As long as he could ensure that it could cover his body for a long time, he could cultivate two-lined battle force.
Even if this method wasn't useful, it wasn't bad.
Two days later, two figures tore through the void and walked out. Their majestic auras shook Sword Mountain, and everyone looked up with reverence. The members of Team Yi had arrived.
During the era of the Anzac Sect, Hen Xin had been the Sect Master of the Three Ultimates Elysium, and he had two requirements for forming Team Yi. First, he had to have no family background, which meant that he had to be an ordinary person or a wandering cultivator. Second, he had to have willpower.
Team Yi was named after Yi, and perseverance was the foundation of the team.
Hen Xin had relied on unimaginable perseverance to climb from an ordinary person to the position of Sect Master of the Three Ultimates Elysium. He had broken through three stages when he was an Enlighter, which showed how difficult it had been for a normal cultivator.
If a normal cultivator had to go through fifty percent of the hardships, then Hen Xin had to go through eighty percent. The members of Team Yi had to go through at least sixty percent of the hardships.
Every member of Team Yi was extremely loyal to Hen Xin, and they weren't afraid of death.
Every member of Team Yi had a power level of over a million.
When the two members of Team Yi arrived, Lu Yin walked out of the pond and took a deep breath. They had finally arrived. To them, it had only been two days, but to him, it had been two years.
At first, he had only wanted to cover his entire body with battle force and stabilize it until he reached six lines. However, as he progressed step by step, he realized that he couldn't stop. Covering his entire body with battle force and maintaining it for a long time actually caused his battle force to continuously condense and darken in color. It was indeed a very effective cultivation method.
Furthermore, it wasn't a simple cultivation method either.
One line battle force covered his entire body for half a month, and it was visible to the naked eye. It was like a tattoo that was gradually engraved into his body and even into his meridians. It was as if it was imprinting itself into the deepest parts of his body.
This process lasted for half a month, and when the one line battle force could no longer be seen with the naked eye, Lu Yin discovered that the power of his battle force alone was comparable to that of an Explorer's.
It wasn't that his battle force had disappeared, but rather that it had been imprinted into his body and not just on the surface like before.
Lu Yin had discovered a new world, and he was deeply interested in this cultivation method. The human body wasn't as simple as it seemed, and there were other methods to cultivate the physical body besides strength.
Battle force was just like star energy, and it could also enter the body.
Why hadn't the Fifth Mainland mentioned anything about this?
Had it been severed?
Regardless, Lu Yin immersed himself in this cultivation method and was very interested in it.
