Wu Yao's gaze turned vicious at the mention of a bloodbath. "This is actually the Ancestor's idea. My Four Way Scales has captured some of the Lu family's remaining members or those who are on good terms with them. After the Xia family pays their respects to the ancestors, we'll execute them in the Top Realm. We'll have them kneel at the border of the Top Realm and let their blood flow to the Middle Realm and the Mortal Realm. The Lu family's blood will atone for the sins of all of humanity."
Qing Chen's eyes narrowed; this was too ruthless.
Below, Zhuo Si clenched his fists and stared at Wu Yao in disbelief. He had spoken without hesitation, as he wanted the entire Astral Tree to know. It would be best if Lu Xiaoxuan knew that the remaining members of the Lu family would be massacred in order to draw out Lu Xiaoxuan. Even if he didn't show up, it would still be a humiliation for the Lu family and be recorded in history by the Four Way Scales.
Blood would dye the Top Realm, Middle Realm, and Mortal Realm in order to atone for the Lu family's sins. This was the Frigid Immortal Sect's plan.
Wu Yao glanced at Zhuo Si coldly and sneered before leaving.
This was the first time Xia Ziheng had heard of the Frigid Immortal Sect's plan, and even he felt that it was too ruthless. However, this plan should be effective. Even if Lu Xiaoxuan couldn't be drawn out, it would at least draw out a group of people who were loyal to the Lu family.
Half-Ancestor Chai and Qing Chen exchanged glances and then left.
Qing Chen looked at Zhuo Si. "Go treat your injuries. I'll tell the Wood Ancestor about your matter."
"Thank you, Superintendent." Zhuo Si bowed solemnly. He felt that something big was about to happen, and the Top Realm would be dyed red by the Lu family's blood.
Had Lu Xiaoxuan really come?
Zhuo Si didn't know either. He thought back to the person who had disguised himself as Long Seven and was actually Lu Xiaoxuan. Although he had only appeared for a short time, he had stunned an entire era and suppressed the four young masters. That person was a true genius, but unfortunately, he had been born at the wrong time.
Back in Yi Xian Academy, Lu Yin thought for a few days and finally thought of a way to save the Star Alliance, but it required luck.
Since the Frigid Immortal Sect had pushed everything onto the God of Forgotten Ruins, why couldn't he?
The Dark Phoenix replaced the Fire Phoenix, and the academy fell into darkness.
Lu Yin's astral source flashed past as he set up a sourcebox array. He then raised his hand, and his die appeared.
Sometimes, he would think that he wouldn't have been able to rise to prominence in the Fifth Mainland if he didn't have the Dice Innate Skill.
As the die slowly stopped spinning, four pips. Time Stop Space.
He didn't want to waste any time in this space, so he extended his time here to nearly a year. He then began to cultivate the Sirius Art and memorize the Primogenitor's Scripture.
A year later, he left the Time Stop Space and continued rolling his die. This time, he rolled three pips and waved his hand to dispel it.
What he needed was six.
Everything went smoothly, and he rolled six pips for the fourth time. His consciousness entered a patch of darkness, and his surroundings were dim. Even the brightest orb of light seemed dull to him, but he had no choice but to merge with it.
When he opened his eyes and saw a corpse, Lu Yin was given a fright. Memories flooded into his mind, and he relaxed. So, he had fused into the body of an Emissary from the Sixth Mainland's memorial hall. But then, his heart sank. He had been in the Astral Tree Realm, but he had fused into the body of a cultivator from the Sixth Mainland. Just how many resources had that required?
Lu Yin wanted to immediately withdraw from the fusion, but he wanted to take a look at the Fifth Mainland's situation first.
He took a quick look at his memories and found that the fifth continent was peaceful. Nothing much had happened, and even if something had happened, it was not something that an Emissary with one Tribulation Origin cultivation like him would know.
Lu Yin withdrew from the fusion and returned to his body to check his cosmic ring. Fortunately, he had not used too much, and with his wealth, it was easy.
He had already rolled the die four times, so he needed to rest for ten days. It just so happened that he also had classes during this time.
He was not in seclusion right now, as he had to report to his instructors when they went into seclusion.
Ten days passed quickly, and Nong Siniang came to find him. Bai Weiwei also came to find him, but everything was normal.
When the Dark Phoenix rose up again, Lu Yin set up a sourcebox array and continued rolling his die.
The first time he rolled one pip, a useless item dropped. The second time he rolled three pips, and the third time he rolled six pips.
He looked at the bright orb in the distance and immediately rushed over to merge with it. This orb of light was not completely compatible with him, and its radiance was still dim. However, it was already the third brightest orb in the area. There were two other orbs that were so bright that they almost illuminated the darkness. Lu Yin was not confident that he could merge with them, as he had never tried such a bright orb before.
Lu Yin opened his eyes and looked around. Was this the battlefield on the other side?
He had appeared in the battlefield on the other side, and this kind of environment could only be seen from the battlefield on the other side. The others in the Astral Tree Realm saw an illusion, as they could not see the bloody slaughter on the other side.
Lu Yin stood in place and did not move. He was in a stone house filled with sharp thorns, and this was the first time he had seen such a stone house.
After looking through the memories, he realized that he had merged with the fifth base of the battlefield on the other side. This was the fifth base, also known as the blood-colored array base.
There were five major array bases on the other side of the battlefield. He had been to the second base, but he had not been to the other four. Actually, each array base had a different battle style and aura, and the fifth base was the most tragic of the five. This was because its commander was called Kuangyan, and people called him Kuangtu.
The place where everyone walked was filled with sharp thorns that could be shot out at any time. If the battle against the Eternals went south, these thorns would be shot out under the commander's orders, regardless of casualties or friend. This was a way to restrain the Eternals' attacks. Humans and Eternals both suffered the most casualties at the fifth base.
There was only one commander left, and that was Commander Lan, whom Lu Yin had merged with. The rest of the commanders had either died or been transferred away. This was a famous death zone on the other side of the battlefield, and Lu Yin had not expected to come here.
Through Commander Lan's memories, Lu Yin admired Commander Kuangyan. This person was always on the frontlines, and his methods were extremely cruel. He was also one of the Eternals' most feared demi-ancestors.
This stone house was the residence of Commander Lan. As far as the eye could see, there were countless neatly arranged stone houses covering the entire fifth formation base. Everyone, from Commander-in-chief Kuang Yan to the lowest soldiers, lived in this kind of stone house. Even the stone houses were filled with sharp thorns, ready to perish together with the Corpse King at any time.
Lu Yin had seen many massacres, but he had never experienced such an imposing manner.
Commander Kuangyan's stone house was not far from Commander Lan's, but he was often absent. He stood at the edge of the base all year round, looking out at the new continent. He was the first line of defense at the fifth base, and on the other side was the eye of the formation, Elder Qiu's stone house.
That's right, it was Elder Qiu, the founder of the Break Ease Society and a demi-ancestor powerhouse.
Not many people knew that Elder Qiu had founded the Break Ease Society, not even Kui Luo. Lu Yin had only found out from Bai Teng, as only Bai Teng was qualified to cooperate with the Break Ease Society.
Cultivators constantly walked in and out of the stone houses, all of them expressionless and indifferent to life and death. There were also some who were nervous and fearful.
Most of them were newcomers who were looking forward to making contributions, so they had gone to exchange for rewards to protect themselves.
As for this Commander Lan that Lu Yin had merged with, he wasn't a good person. Just like many other cultivators, he would do anything to increase his cultivation and obtain more resources. However, his talent was limited, and reaching three Origin Tribulations was his limit. He hadn't come to the battlefield on his own accord, but had instead offended the former Lu family and been thrown to the fifth base.
Any cultivator who came to the fifth base either had no background or had offended someone. Commander Lan had offended the Lu family, and the Star Alliance hadn't existed back then, so he had been thrown here.
The fifth base was equivalent to the Star Alliance's predecessor, and it was too difficult to leave alive.
The only reason Commander Lan was still alive was because he had held back on the battlefield. He had even used other cultivators as scapegoats in order to survive.
Memories continued to appear, and Lu Yin also saw the Lu family's former glory through Commander Lan's memories, as well as his past self.
Lu Xiaoxuan had been one of the Seven Heroes, and his fame in the Astral Tree Domain was too great. He had also come to the fifth base, and Commander Lan had wanted to kill Lu Xiaoxuan.
After learning about this, Lu Yin almost controlled Commander Lan's body to jump off the base and fight to the death in the new continent.
All of a sudden, two familiar figures appeared in his mind. They were none other than Senior Yi He and Senior Jun, the two Star Envoys who had once guarded the Lesser Ancestor Planet. One was from the Lesser Ancestor Planet, while the other was from the Lesser Ancestor Planet Shen Wu. Why were they here?
Lu Yin could understand why they had left Planet Junior Progenitor after its resources had been stolen, but they shouldn't have been thrown to the fifth base. The fact that they had been able to protect Planet Junior Progenitor meant that they had a close relationship with the Four Way Scales. The theft of Planet Junior Progenitor had nothing to do with them, unless they had other motives.
Through Commander Lan's memories, Lu Yin searched for images related to these two, and found that they had requested for the stone house to be closer to Qiu Lao. They had also taken turns approaching Qiu Lao's stone house.
It would have been fine if they didn't know that Qiu Lao was the founder of the Broken Transaction Society, but Lu Yin did. These two's actions were too obvious; they had been sent by the Four Way Scales to monitor Qiu Lao.
The Four Way Scales probably knew that Qiu Lao was the founder of the Broken Transaction Society, so they had sent these two to monitor him. Of course, there could also be other reasons.
No matter what the reason was, these two were worth Lu Yin's luck.
Lu Yin wanted to withdraw from the fusion, but seeing these two was exactly what he needed. He wanted to find someone close to the Four Way Scales and pass on some information to them.
…
Lu Yin's consciousness withdrew from the fusion, but he didn't immediately check his cosmic ring. Instead, he thought back to the words he had purposely revealed. He didn't know if he would be able to trick the Four Way Scales, but that would depend on his luck.
At the same time, at the fifth base, Yi He and Jun looked at each other in shock. Their original mission had been to monitor Qiu Lao, and they didn't need to watch his every move. They only needed to report if anyone had come looking for him.
However, they hadn't expected to accidentally spy on Commander Lan's secret. This person was actually Redback, and what he had said matched what had happened to the Four Way Scales recently.
"We can't delay any longer. Report it immediately," Yi He said.
Jun nodded. "I'll report it to Shenwu Plane."
Not long after, Xia Xing and Xia Ziheng met up in Shenwu Plane. "I didn't think that it would really be the God of Forgotten Ruins. From the information I accidentally obtained at the fifth base, the God of Forgotten Ruins has been watching the Star Alliance for a long time. If we hadn't separated the Star Alliance, she might have already come into contact with the seal."
