Needless to say, Four Pips was in the Time Stop Space.
Five Pips was not commonly used, mainly because he did not dare to roll his die in a crowded area. The duration was also too short, only ten seconds. However, once used properly, it was not easy.
Six Pips was always unexpected, and it could greatly increase one's strength. It even had such an unexpected effect.
However, while other people's innate gifts could be used in the trial zones, his own die could not. Was it only in the trial zones, or did it not work in other similar places?
This was very important.
"Ghost Monkey, let me ask you a question," Lu Yin said.
The monkey was pleased with himself. "Now you know how great I am. Ask away, and don't block me out for no reason."
"You said before that the trial zones are the legacy of the Rune Technology, so why can people use their innate gifts there?" Lu Yin asked.
"Innate gifts are a part of the body, so of course they can be used. Why? Do you want to analyze it again?
Even the powerhouses of the Human Domain can't do it, let alone you. "
"Are there any innate gifts that can't be used?" Lu Yin asked.
The monkey paused. "I've never heard of such a thing. The Rune Technology is definitely powerful, and they can copy any person, any technique, or even any innate gift. There's no such thing as an innate gift that can't be copied."
"What if there is?" Lu Yin pressed on.
The monkey replied, "If there is, it only proves that the person's innate gift is too powerful, and it's beyond the scope of the Rune Technology's understanding."
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed. He did not doubt this at all, as he was well aware of how powerful his die was.
"Are you the one whose innate gift can't be used in the trial zones?" the monkey probed.
Lu Yin answered, "It's not me. It's someone else."
"Who?"
The monkey was shocked. "Impossible. There's nothing that the Rune Technology can't copy. They can even copy the stars of the universe."
"How do you know so much about them?"
"I told you before that I like to explore ancient ruins. There are records of all these things."
"Is that so?" Lu Yin did not believe it. The monkey knew too much, but he had been able to dodge every time he probed.
Lu Yin did not trust the monkey, and the monkey did not ask about his innate gift again.
Not long after, a set of coordinates was sent to Lu Yin's gadget from the Sandmaster. "Head to the coordinates and participate in the Outerverse trial."
Lu Yin stood up; the trial had finally begun. From the very beginning, this trial had been unfair to everyone else. All that mattered was that he could return alive, but if his goal was to obstruct the Daynight clan, then things would be different.
Lu Yin had a plan in mind that might require him to use Wu Xia's identity.
Soon after, he arrived at the treasury to meet with Old Cai.
"Old Cai, I'm going to participate in a trial in the Outerverse. Can I apply for a personal spacecraft?" Lu Yin asked awkwardly. His personal spacecraft had disappeared at the pirate port, and he had no idea where it had gone.
Old Cai was very unhappy. "You can't even protect your own things well. Be careful that you don't lose your life one day. Go, go. Remember, it's just a loan. If you lose it, you have to return it."
He didn't mind. Most personal spacecraft only cost about ten thousand star crystals, which he could afford.
Although he had been to the Darkmist Weave before, the universe's weather was ever-changing, and he had to change his route frequently. It would take him nineteen days to travel from Astral-10 to the coordinates, which wasn't too long.
He thought for a moment, and the Giant Emperor's third eye appeared in his palm. He looked at the starry sky, infused his body with battle force, and silently recited the Stonewall Scriptures.
Time slowly passed, and soon, eighteen days had passed. Lu Yin's personal spacecraft had traveled through six filaments.
Lu Yin had originally planned to find a place to stop and roll his die, but after some thought, he decided to leave it in the Shenwu Continent to prevent any accidents from happening.
Another day passed, and Lu Yin arrived at an isolated region in space according to the coordinates. From time to time, strange ripples would sweep through the area, and this region of space would be severed.
Lu Yin passed through the identity verification and successfully entered. He saw a giant space station that was completely made of metal. It looked like a steel castle that floated in space, and it was even larger than a super-large spacecraft.
Terrifying auras filled the air, all of which belonged to space-exploring powerhouses. Many of them were very obscure, but they still caused Lu Yin's scalp to go numb. These were powerhouses that he couldn't even begin to imagine.
This was the front station for the invasion of the Shenwu Continent. Because of this space station, the Shenwu Continent would never dare to appear.
A middle-aged man greeted Lu Yin. His name was Cang Yu, and he was an Explorer.
"I never thought that I would be able to meet Student Lu, one of the top four of the Astral Combat Tournament. It's an honor," Cang Yu said with a smile. His tone was very polite. He was just an ordinary Explorer who had been born and raised in the Darkmist Weave. He had never been to the Innerverse and had never had the opportunity to enter an advanced institution like the Astral Combat Academy.
Lu Yin smiled. No matter how strong an ordinary cultivator was, the difference in their status was very obvious. Even if Lu Yin wasn't a match for this person, this person would still be obedient to him. Besides, Lu Yin was confident that he could defeat this ordinary Explorer. Even Zi Tie, an Explorer realm astral beast that was known for its defense, had been forced back by him.
"There's no need to be so polite, Lord Cang Yu. I'll have to trouble Lord Cang Yu to explain the situation of the Shenwu Continent," Lu Yin said with a smile.
Cang Yu nodded and smiled. "Student Lu must have already investigated the Shenwu Continent before coming here, so there's no need for me to explain the general situation. I'll just tell you a few things that you need to pay attention to." He paused and saw that Lu Yin was listening attentively. "The first is your attire. The Shenwu Continent's attire is retro, and we'll provide you with clothes that you can change into.
Lu Yin looked over and blinked, but he didn't see anything.
Cang Yu smiled. "There's a particle camera in my palm that can be installed in a person's muscle tissue without being detected. During the trial, all gadgets and other technologies must be removed, as the Shenwu Continent is hostile to interstellar civilizations. If you're discovered by them, you'll definitely die, and no one will be able to save you."
"I've heard of this before," Lu Yin said.
Cang Yu nodded and continued. "The third thing is star energy. The star energy that we cultivate is different from the martial power that the Shenwu Continent cultivates. Student Lu, it's best that you hide in the wilderness when you reach the Shenwu Continent and disperse your star energy to cultivate your martial power while ensuring your own safety. Otherwise, you'll be discovered by the Shenwu Continent's specialized organizations, and if you're discovered, you'll be wiped out immediately."
Lu Yin knew that Cang Yu was talking about the Ming Constables, but why didn't he just say that directly?
After thinking about it, he understood. This was a trial, and it was impossible to explain everything clearly. The purpose of the trial was to select the strongest, and it wasn't a true experience. Death was all too common, and the trial's purpose was to select the strongest.
"The fourth thing is that the trial's results will be determined based on the results of the particle camera, and it will be up to the trialtakers to figure out how to improve their results. However, Student Lu should know that there are two eternal missions related to the Shenwu Continent, and completing either of them will be a great achievement," Cang Yu said with a hopeful tone. "I believe that Student Lu has a high chance of completing them."
Lu Yin smiled bitterly. "Lord Cang Yu thinks too highly of me. I'm only a Limiteer."
Cang Yu praised, "Ever since the Shenwu Continent was discovered, there has been an endless stream of trialtakers, but no one has been able to complete the two missions. However, I believe that Student Lu will be able to complete them. Your spectacular battles during the Astral Combat Tournament were truly shocking."
Lu Yin smiled and did not say anything else.
"In a moment, we'll invite a powerhouse to tear open a crack and send Student Lu to the Shenwu Continent. The landing point will be in one of the thirty-six continents of the Shenwu Empire. Because we can't completely control the landing point, Student Lu must be prepared. It's not like there hasn't been a case where you've been discovered as soon as you land," Cang Yu said solemnly.
Lu Yin nodded. "Then how will I return?"
"I'll provide you with a few locations that are well hidden. Next time, we'll send a powerhouse to retrieve all the trialtakers from those locations."
"Then why don't you just send them to one of those locations?"
"The location changes, and it can't be used again. The people of the Shenwu Continent will discover it, and everyone's landing point will be different. This is to ensure safety."
Lu Yin understood that this was a war. He silently reminded himself that although this was a war between the humans, to the people of the Shenwu Continent, they were invaders. This was no different from the war between the Human Domain and the Astral Beast Domain.
At this moment, Cang Yu's gadget beeped. He glanced at it and was shocked. "Someone from the Blaze Realm is here. Are they also sending someone to participate in the trial?"
The Blaze Realm?
Lu Yin's heart skipped a beat. "Who from the Blaze Realm is here?"
"Someone called Arikar. Right, isn't he the one who was defeated by Astral-8's leader during the Astral Combat Tournament?"
Cang Yu suddenly remembered and apologized to Lu Yin. "Please wait a moment while I bring him over. Many people are needed to enter the Shenwu Continent, and it's very difficult to tear open a crack every time."
Lu Yin nodded and watched Cang Yu leave. His eyes flickered; someone from the Blaze Realm was here as well. He wondered what Cang Yu's expression would be when he saw him.
It was not strange for someone from the Blaze Realm to participate in the Outerverse trial. Arikar was the strongest member of the Blaze Realm's younger generation, so it was normal for him to be sent here.
He was much more arrogant than Lu Yin, and he was not very polite to Cang Yu. In his eyes, an ordinary Explorer like Cang Yu was not worthy of his attention. Someone like that had to curry favor with the Astral River Flowzone Envoy before entering the Innerverse.
Cang Yu could also sense Arikar's arrogance, but he did not mind. Every trial involved encountering young geniuses from the Innerverse and Outerverse, so it did not matter much to him. On the other hand, it would be strange for someone like Lu Yin to be so polite to him.
"Student Arikar, there's another student who came before you. After a few more people, we can head to the Shenwu Continent," Cang Yu said with a smile.
Arikar grunted. "Who's here?"
"You should know him. He's also a student from the Astral Combat Academy, Lu Yin."
Arikar stopped and looked at Cang Yu in astonishment. "What did you say?
Lu Yin?
He's here? "
"Yes, he arrived about ten minutes earlier than you." Cang Yu smiled.
Arikar's expression turned ugly, as he did not want to travel with Lu Yin. Everyone would be enemies during the trial, and he would rather travel with an Explorer that he did not know than provoke Lu Yin. He knew about the enmity between the Blaze Realm and Astral-10. Arikar thought about it and said, "I'll wait a few days before heading to the Shenwu Continent. You guys can arrange for Lu Yin to go first."
