Xu Ji was speechless when he saw Lu Yin close his eyes. "You still want to try?"
"It's not like I lost anything," Lu Yin replied before thinking back to the big-faced tree.
Just thinking about the tree gave him a headache. His mind was filled with its buzzing, and he could even memorize the grand battles of the Third Mainland. He then opened his eyes and took a step forward, plucking the Four-Radiant Fruit.
The entire Wood Dao Academy fell silent.
Xu Ji was completely dumbfounded. Was this even possible?
On this day, the people from the Wood Dao Academy experienced the same feelings as those from the Lost Dao Academy and Void God Academy.
When Lu Yin had triggered the Void God Tide and drawn in the village, the people from the Void God Academy had been stunned.
When Lu Yin had successfully punched in less than an hour and even found the Hidden Mountain Card, the people from the Lost Dao Academy had been stunned.
Now, Lu Yin had reached out three times in a row and plucked a Four-Radiant Fruit. The people from the Wood Dao Academy were stunned.
It wasn't just them; even Third Master Mu was stunned. Was this even possible?
He hadn't seen this in so many years.
Xu Xiangyin reacted the fastest and stood in front of Third Master Mu with a kind smile. "A promise is the most important quality of a person."
Looking at Xu Xiangyin's smile, Third Master Mu suddenly felt displeased. With Lu Yin's talent, he could have been accepted by the Wood Dimension and become a member of the Wood Dimension, but he had been snatched away by the Void God Dimension early on. Third Master Mu had been forced to eat dust and couldn't snatch this talent away. Why wasn't the Wood Academy the first academy that this brat went to?
"Talents are the gears of a civilization's development," Third Master Mu replied seriously.
This touched Xu Xiangyin's most nervous nerves. "You said you wouldn't steal it, Third Master Mu."
"I regret it," Third Master Mu said.
Xu Xiangyin's eyes widened. "You …" Third Master Mu raised a hand to stop him and rubbed his forehead. "Regret is one thing, but I'll keep my promise."
Xu Xiangyin heaved a sigh of relief and smiled again.
"But Xu Xiangyin, you'll have to compensate me," Third Master Mu said in a low voice.
Xu Xiangyin wanted to retort, but after thinking about it, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he had to compensate a little. There was no other way. Who asked that little fellow to be so outstanding?
"Don't be reluctant. This little guy can go to our Wood Spirit Region after picking the Four-Radiant Fruit. You know what it means. Once he obtains an incredible wood talent, it will be enough to change his future. Compared to this, your compensation is better than nothing," Third Master Mu said sullenly.
"Mu Mu from your Wood Universe can also go to my Void God Universe to find a powerful Void God. It's the same. No one will lose out."
"But Mu Mu doesn't have Xuan Qi's talent." Third Master Mu snorted.
Xu Xiangyin hurriedly said a few good words to let this topic pass.
The green bubble floated beside him, and he raised a hand to touch it. A weak power flowed into his body through his fingertips, almost as if he was absorbing a star crystal. This was the power that the Wood Spacetime people cultivated, and it was essentially a power that an extreme powerhouse could create.
He wanted to guide this power to his heart, but now was not the time. He wanted to try again.
Although he was familiar with the big-faced tree, it wasn't the tree he was most familiar with. The tree he was most familiar with was the sapling!
"Xuan Qi." Xu Ji opened his mouth to speak, but he suddenly paused and looked at Lu Yin in shock. What was he doing?
He closed his eyes again. Was he going to try again?
Around them
They didn't make a single sound. Lu Yin had caused too much of a shock, and when they saw him close his eyes again, they had a premonition that he wouldn't pick the five-colored fruit, would he?
Although they didn't dare to believe it, the premonition was growing stronger and stronger.
Outside the Wood Dao Academy, Third Master Mu, Xu Xiangyin, and You Teng all looked at Lu Yin and saw him close his eyes. No way, he was going to try again?
Third Master Mu and the others had never thought that their worldview would be turned upside down one day.
Picking the fruit wasn't that simple. There were many cultivation families and sects in the Wood Universe that wanted to pick a good one, but they couldn't. Those sects and clans would do everything they could to find strange trees in the entire universe and even in parallel universes. Even so, it was already quite good for the juniors to pick the Three-Radiant Fruit.
Most cultivators in the Wood Universe would be satisfied if they could pick the Two-Radiant Fruit.
He Shu, Shao Qingfeng, and the others were the top elites of their respective universes, which was why many people in the Six Direction Training Rites had managed to pick the Three-Radiant Fruit. Compared to the entire universe, this ratio was almost zero, let alone Xu Ji's Four-Radiant Fruit.
If Lu Yin could pick the Three-Radiant Fruit, it meant that he had seen a powerful tree before, which was normal. Being able to pick a Four-Radiant Fruit meant that the tree he had seen was quite extraordinary, even in the Wood Universe. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to pick a Four-Radiant Fruit. Now that he had dared to try, it meant that he had seen an even more familiar and powerful tree.
How many people and things could an ordinary person see in their lifetime?
What had this kid seen?
What had he come into contact with?
Regardless of whether he would succeed or not, daring to try at least meant that he had the confidence to succeed.
Lu Yin kept thinking about the sapling in his mind. That pleasant green leaf gently rubbed against his branch. That kind of dependence and trust made him feel as if the sapling was right next to him.
At the same time, in the void of the Fifth Mainland's Sect Above Heaven, the green leaf on the sapling's branch suddenly lifted up and turned around. It slowly extended its branch as if it was rubbing against something, giving off a sense of dependence.
This kind of dependence had transcended the parallel universe.
Lu Yin reached out and smiled warmly. To him, the sapling was like a child.
He suddenly felt something soft in his hand. What is this?
Lu Yin opened his eyes, and a wooden fruit had appeared in his hand at some point. It sparkled with five colors; this was a five-colored fruit.
With a whoosh, Third Master Mu appeared in front of him with wide eyes. He grabbed Lu Yin's shoulder and was about to take him away when Xu Xiangyin suddenly appeared as well. "Mu San, what are you doing?"
Lu Yin had already sensed their arrival, but he didn't resist and just let them grab him.
"Old Xu, I owe you a favor. Give him to us," Third Master Mu said solemnly with a solemn expression.
Xu Xiangyin angrily shouted, "Impossible! Xuan Qi belongs to the Void God Universe! No one can take him away! Mu San, you said you wouldn't take him away!"
Third Master Mu frowned, "Now is not the time to talk about that. Do you know what it means to directly obtain a five-colored fruit?"
Xu Xiangyin asked, "Then do you know what it means to cultivate and trigger a Void God Tide?"
"Old Xu, don't be unreasonable. Xuan Qi belongs to the Wood Dimension."
"Xuan Qi must return to the Void God Universe with me. No one can take him away."
The crowd looked on in disbelief. They had actually succeeded, and not just succeeded, but the five-colored fruit had also actively obtained it. This was something they had only heard of in the legends of the Wood Dimension.
How could such a thing have happened?
Xu Ji turned and left, his eyes filled with anticipation. With such an opponent, he wouldn't be lonely. The future of the Void God Universe would be his.
The fight between Third Master Mu and Xu Xiangyin didn't stop just because the crowd had dispersed.
Lu Yin felt a headache coming on. "Seniors, what's going on?"
Xu Xiangyin rolled his eyes. What else was going on?
He really wanted to say, "Can you not be so outstanding?"
His performance in the Wood Dao College was not inferior to his performance in the Void God Dao College. He was no longer a genius, but a monster. If the Lost Clan did not discriminate against outsiders, with his performance in the Lost Dao College, he would definitely have one more competitor.
"Xuan Qi, right? Little guy, join the Wood Dimension. I'm Third Master Mu, and I'll guarantee you a spot in the Wood Dimension."
The Wood Dimension was equivalent to the Fifth Mainland's Progenitor Realm.
Xu Xiangyin scolded, "Third Master Mu, you're shameless! How dare you guarantee a spot in the Wood Dimension?
You're not even one yourself. "
"It's not a problem. I only picked the three-crimson fruit, but Xuan Qi obtained the five-colored fruit on its own. No one in the Wood Dimension can match his talent. He'll definitely become the Wood Dimension."
"Bullshit, no one can guarantee that they'll become an extreme powerhouse."
"How do you explain the Reincarnation Dimension?"
Xu Xiangyin choked. The Reincarnation Dimension was a strange existence. Even after so many years, the number of the Three Venerables and Nine Sages hadn't decreased. It wasn't a matter of cultivation, but rather a matter of bestowment.
"And how do you explain the Transcendence Dimension?"
Third Master Mu asked again.
As long as one wore the Transcendence Dimension's black energy source and their body could withstand it, they could become an extreme powerhouse.
Xu Xiangyin gritted his teeth. "You can't do it in the Wood Dimension."
"That's because you're ignorant."
"Bullshit."
"You're the one who's bullshit. If you have the ability, guarantee one for Xuan Qi.
"You-"
…
Lu Yin was very calm, as everything was within his expectations. With his talent, it would be strange if no one fought over him. He felt as if he had returned to Yu Hao's era. It was so familiar, and if he wanted to better understand the Six Direction Society, this talent was necessary.
In the end, the competition was stopped by You Teng.
Lu Yin still belonged to the Transcendence Dimension, and if no one fought over him, he would be recognized as a member of the Void God Dimension. However, now that the Wood Dimension was fighting over him, Lu Yin's final destination was uncertain.
This was what Xu Xiangyin was most worried about. Lu Yin's fate depended not only on himself, but also on the Transcendence Dimension. Thus, they were very polite to You Teng.
"No matter what, we can't disturb his cultivation. No matter which dimension Xuan Qi ends up in, it'll be a blessing for humanity. Come with me to the Transcendence Dimension," You Teng said.
Third Master Mu and Xu Xiangyin looked at each other and nodded at the same time. "Alright."
"Xuan Qi, don't feel burdened. I know you yearn for the Void God Civilization. Don't worry, I'll definitely bring you back," Xu Xiangyin smiled.
Lu Yin bowed. "Thank you, Senior."
Third Master Mu moved closer and smiled. "Xuan Qi, stay here and learn more about the Wood Dimension. You'll find that it's more powerful than that Xu whatever. We're the true path of human cultivation."
"Third Master Mu, don't be shameless!" Xu Xiangyin was unhappy.
"Alright, you two, it's time to go," You Teng said, smiling at Lu Yin before leaving.
