With a roar, the Hellwyrm opened its mouth and bared its fangs.
Lu Yin glanced over, and the Hellwyrm lowered its claws.
This fellow didn't have much intelligence. Ever since Lu Yin had tamed it with the slipper when he had first returned to the Fifth Mainland, it was no different from a pet aside from being afraid of death. It had a one-track mind and would listen to anything it was afraid of. Lu Yin wasn't even worried that it would ambush him.
However, he would still teach it a lesson from time to time just in case.
It wasn't easy to travel from the Fifth Mainland to the Cosmic Tree Realm, and one had to go through strict inspection. Lu Yin also couldn't allow disobedient or hostile people to enter.
The inspection line was very long, just like when Lu Yin had first gone to the Innerverse and seen people lining up to enter the Astral River Ark. There were no less than ten Emissaries around, and there was even Zhan Lin, a half-step Ancestor, to ensure that no one could enter the Cosmic Tree Realm.
In the past, it would have been unthinkable for an Emissary to specifically register a "name". However, ever since Lu Yin had taken the Star Alliance away from the Astral Tree Realm, other than the remaining ministers of the Lu family, the rest of the Emissaries in the Star Alliance would atone for their crimes by performing meritorious deeds. This person was the same.
Lu Yin took out the Above the Sky Sect's token and waved it. The Emissary's gaze turned cold. "Please enter."
This kind of token was specifically used by people to enter the Starry Sky of Trees. Most people used this token to disguise their identity. For example, Big Sister, Wang Wen, and the others used this token to enter the Starry Sky of Trees. This way, no one would know their whereabouts unless they were recognized in the Starry Sky of Trees.
As for the Hellwyrm on their shoulders and the General Appointment Platform on their backs, Lu Yin looked around and saw that many people had them.
He had specifically asked Qiong Xi 'er to do this a year ago. There was a creature on the Fifth Mainland that looked like a miniature version of the Hellwyrm, and Lu Yin had asked her to find it and find a way to make it popular. He had even made countless copies of the General Appointment Platform to cover up the traces of the Hellwyrm and the General Appointment Platform. This would make it easier for him to disguise himself and enter the Cosmic Tree Realm in the future.
He was worried about his safety if he entered the Cosmic Tree Realm alone, and he could easily be exposed if he brought these things with him. Thus, he could only use this method to push the trend forward. Fortunately, the results were good, and there were many people dressed like him everywhere.
In the current Fifth Mainland, this kind of pet and General Appointment Platform were everywhere. Any cultivator with a bit of wealth would buy them and equip themselves with them.
Lu Yin smoothly entered the Astral Tree Realm and then followed the procedure step by step. He did not leave in secret, as he did not want to be discovered by the Four Way Scales.
The Wang family's surveillance of the Xinkong Corridor was very strict. Once they discovered that he had left and exposed his identity, many things would become difficult for them to do, especially when they had to face the possibility of killing him at any time.
More than twenty days later, Lu Yin stood on the Rainbow Bridge and followed a group of cultivators from the Fifth Mainland. They were arranged by the Four Way Scales to head towards the Mortal Realm.
"Even in our Starry Sky of Trees, very few people are willing to risk their lives in the mortal world. You people from the abandoned land are quite bold," the Four Way Balance cultivator said sarcastically.
Another person said, "Once they suffer in the Mortal Realm, they'll understand. They'll definitely cry and shout about going to the Middle Realm."
"Hmph, it's not that easy to survive in the Central Plain World. I heard that many clans and sects in the Starry Sky of Trees have joined forces to form the Abandonment Alliance. Their goal is to expel these people from the abandoned lands. They're just wasting resources and increasing the risk."
"They might even bring in a Red Back spy."
…
A group of Fifth Mainland cultivators at the rear had pale expressions on their faces.
These cultivators from the Four Way Balance were ridiculing them one after another. It was quite unpleasant to hear.
"These people are really asking for a beating, even more so than my name. Unfortunately, there aren't many ruthless people in our group. I heard that there were a few ruthless people in the previous batches who taught these cultivators a lesson. One of them was from the Lu family, and he should be Lu Yin's relative. How nice would it be for me to have such an arrogant relative, but I'm not that bad either. Lu Yin is my brother. Brother Big Mole, when you return to the Fifth Mainland, go to the Above Heaven Sect and tell them that you're Qian Zou.
Lu Yin glanced at the hand on his shoulder, which came from the chattering person beside him. It was Qian Zou.
Lu Yin hadn't expected that he would be traveling the same way as Qian Zou in the Starry Sky of Trees. He had originally wanted to ignore this person, but he hadn't expected this person to target him and call him Brother Big Mole. Lu Yin had already told him that he was in disguise, but Qian Zou kept referring to him as Brother Big Mole.
"Eh, Brother Big Mole, why are you looking at me like that?
Don't tell me you want to teach them a lesson. Don't, you're too weak. It's not that I don't like you, but you're definitely too weak. When I see Brother Lu in the future, I'll ask him to help you improve. Just bear with it for now. "Qian Zou patted Lu Yin's shoulder." We can only blame our bad luck for not traveling with a few ruthless people. "
"Why don't you go?"
Lu Yin asked.
Qian Zou gestured for him to remain silent and solemnly said, "I have an important mission, and I can't be recognized. Otherwise, the Four Way Scales will be alerted. Brother Lu asked me to help, so I can't make any mistakes."
Lu Yin pursed his lips and didn't say anything else. He had nothing to say to this person.
In order to avoid being noticed by the Four Way Scales, Lu Yin had followed the group for more than twenty days. As long as he reached the Mortal Realm, everything would be fine. Of course, he hadn't wasted those days either, as Big Sis had been tracking Liu Shaoge and the others.
He had come to the Mortal Realm because Big Sis had told him that Liu Shaoge and Xia Shenji's clones were in the Mortal Realm.
A few days later, they arrived at the Mortal Realm. All of the Fifth Mainland's cultivators saw the boundless coiling Ancestral Mandala's torso, which seemed to have replaced the sky. They would never forget the shock that they felt for the rest of their lives.
From time to time, an obscure and terrifying pressure would sweep across the area.
Humans were just a part of the laws of nature here, and they might not even be at the peak. They were not just hunters, but also prey.
This place stimulated a person's instinctive desire to survive, and this was also the reason why many cultivators wanted to come here. They longed to break through and transform here, but most of them were just throwing their lives away.
As soon as they arrived at the Mortal Realm, they saw a ball of flames that distorted the void hurtling towards them. It was as if the sun had descended, and it brought with it a scorching heat that seemed capable of melting all things. The cultivators who saw it were shocked, as this was an attack from an Enlighter, and there weren't many Enlighters among the Fifth Mainland's cultivators.
The Four Way Scales cultivators immediately retreated, as there was no way they could help block the attack.
Lu Yin looked up, and two figures charged out from behind him and attacked the flames. One of them even used Overlaying Stacks, which combined with an Enlighter's power level to barely disperse the flames. However, they were injured in the process.
The Four Way Scales cultivators were disdainful. "You dare to descend to the Mortal Realm with this level of strength? You're courting death."
One of them said, "These attacks should be a gift from the Abandonment Alliance. They're in the Middle Realm, and they're descending to the Mortal Realm to hunt down cultivators from the Abandoned Lands. There are more and more cases like this."
"This has nothing to do with us, and it's not like we're the ones who did it. Let them be. Let's go, it's better if they all die."
"Actually, we should just throw them into the battlefield at the back."
…
The Fifth Mainland's cultivators hurriedly scattered after the flames were dispersed. They weren't stupid, and it wasn't a coincidence that an attack had appeared right after they arrived. There had to be a problem. Some of them were already planning to head to the Middle Realm, as the Mortal Realm was too dangerous.
Lu Yin walked off the Rainbow Bridge and raised his arm to contact Big Sis through the wireless gu.
"Big Mole Bro, where are you going?
Big brother will bring you along, "Qian Zou asked as he came over.
Lu Yin glanced at him and then started walking into the distance. Qian Zou hurriedly tried to catch up, but he soon realized that he couldn't. Lu Yin was too fast, and he had disappeared in an instant.
Qian Zou was stunned. He had used Reverse Step, but he still couldn't keep up?
This was an expert! As a thief who had roamed the Fifth Mainland for many years, Qian Zou naturally had his own way of judging people. His sense of smell was quite sharp, and he had sensed that this person wasn't simple at first glance, which was why he had tried to worm his way into being friends with him. Now that he realized that this was indeed the case, it was a pity that he couldn't keep up and didn't know this person's background.
Qian Zou was a little annoyed. If he had known, he would have gotten closer to Lu Yin.
There were five districts in the Mortal Realm, and Lu Yin had been to the third district with Long Xi.
The Ancestral Mang was wrapped around the Mother Tree. Its head was in the third district, its tail was in the fifth district, and the rest were in the torso.
Lu Yin took out the Dragonsaliva Soil, which had been given to him by the White Dragon Clan. This soil had been soaked in the Ancestral Mang's saliva, and it had a great deterrent effect on astral beasts. This was also the reason why he had been able to instantly cause the Yao Emperor to lose his bearings.
This soil was very useful in the Mortal Realm.
Lu Yin took out the soil, and no creature in the Mortal Realm dared to approach it.
He successfully met up with Big Sis.
She was dissatisfied. "What took you so long?"
Half a month had passed since Lu Yin had left the Fifth Mainland. He replied, "We can't be discovered by the Four Way Scales, so we can only take it slow."
"Alright, let's go in this direction." Big Sis was swift and decisive, and she rushed out after confirming the direction.
Lu Yin immediately followed.
Along the way, Big Sis gave Lu Yin quite a bit of Astral Liquid, which stunned him. "Where is this from?
Did you absorb Astral Liquid? "
"I stole it from the Four Way Scales. Little Stutterer stole it from me, so I'll give it to you."
"Little Stutterer?"
Lu Yin was puzzled.
"He's also a pirate. He used to be the disciple of Ji Qiang from the Immortal Battle Group. He's now wandering the world."
"Ji Qiang?
Xia Ji's clone's disciple?
You dare to bring him along?
Right, I remember now. Little Stutterer, he didn't die? "
"No, he ran away very quickly."
Lu Yin found it funny. He didn't know when he had met Little Stutterer and Qian Zou during the Star Tower contest, but now, they had met again.
A day later, the two arrived at a nest of creatures. What should have been a ferocious creature had been turned into roasted meat.
"It's them," Big Sis said.
Lu Yin looked around. "Did they leave early?"
"I hope they didn't discover that we were following them. Otherwise, we might not be able to find them."
Lu Yin's eyes flashed. The more he didn't want it to happen, the more likely it would happen. He extended his domain and suddenly saw a Cloudconnect Stone in the corner.
Lu Yin walked over and looked at the stone. He shook his head and crushed it with his foot. "We've been discovered. They even heard our conversation."
Big Sis frowned. "That shouldn't be. Even Xia Shenji himself might not be able to detect my methods."
