Lu Yin walked up to the sixteenth floor and looked around. These researchers were all elites, and if the information seller was really from this base, then he should be one of them.
"You're not going to the seventeenth floor?"
Little Brow asked.
Lu Yin replied, "I'm looking for something. You guys can go by yourselves. I've already done everything I can."
Little Brow's gaze was resolute; they had never been so close to Lord Liu Yun before. They were so close that she could already feel the surging energy below. "Thank you." She then left with the cultivators from the Drifting Cloud Space to open a path to the seventeenth floor and rescue Lord Liu Yun.
The base was filled with explosions, and the super analysis mode had been deactivated. The outside world had no way of knowing what had happened to this base.
He Ran and the others must have thought that everything was under control, but by the time they reacted, Lu Yin had already left.
There should be someone nearby who could use the black energy source, but that person wasn't clear about the base's situation. However, it wouldn't take long for that person to contact the base, and once that person couldn't be contacted, they would appear.
Lu Yin's domain spread out, not letting anything slip by. He had to be quick.
At the same time, he released Luo Laoer from Mount Supreme. "Contact the information seller."
Luo Laoer didn't dare delay and immediately contacted the seller.
With his domain, the entire base's situation was imprinted in his mind. The moment Luo Laoer contacted the information seller, a screen flickered in a dark corner. Lu Yin looked over and saw that it was less than a kilometer away.
He instantly appeared in that dark corner and saw Luo Laoer's symbol on the screen. This was the place.
Lu Yin looked around the room and found a picture. Was it that person?
He returned to where he had been and walked over to Little Hai.
"Brother-in-law, it's him?"
Luo Laoer was shocked.
Lu Yin put Luo Laoer away and opened Little Hai's hand, writing something before disappearing.
It was time to meet Liu Yun.
The people from the Drifting Cloud Space had already reached the seventeenth floor and were constantly attacking the metal door that imprisoned Liu Yun, but their attacks were useless.
Behind the door, Liu Yun's eyes were bloodshot as he roared hoarsely, "Scram! Scram! Scram!"
His voice easily penetrated the door; this was the effect that the research team wanted. They had to let the cultivators of the Drifting Cloud Space hear him so that they wouldn't despair.
"Lord Liu Yun, we won't give up! We'll definitely save you!"
"Lord Liu Yun, we're here!"
"We'll be out soon."
…
Xiao Mei clenched her teeth and kept attacking the metal door, but the metal door didn't budge.
Behind the metal door, Liu Yun closed his eyes. He was already numb. He watched as batch after batch of his cultivators died, but it was useless. Why was this happening?
If he hadn't opened the passage to Hyperspace, things wouldn't have turned out like this. He hated, hated Hyperspace, and hated himself even more. He thought that he had nothing to fear when he became an extreme powerhouse. However, the universe was too big, and he didn't know what was going on. He hated, he shouldn't have let others know.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and looked in another direction. There, Lu Yin had walked out and was looking at him in astonishment.
"Who are you?"
Liu Yun was shocked. This wasn't a place that one could enter just by tearing through the void. How could this person be here?
For someone like Lu Yin who could control space, entering this place was not difficult.
"Do you want to leave?"
Lu Yin said indifferently.
Flowing Cloud stared at Lu Yin. Flowing Cloud's power was boundless and majestic, but there was an inverted Bestow Technique's carrier directly above him, forming a prison that resembled a sourcebox array.
Lu Yin had seen this cage before. Hyperspace could use the Bestow Technique to create a sourcebox array that was similar to a large spatial transfer. Hyperspace's usage of the Bestow Technique had reached perfection.
Even Liu Yun couldn't break free.
Not only that, but Liu Yun's four limbs had been corroded by something. His Flowing Cloud's power had not been affected, as it had been used to attract the cultivators from the Flowing Cloud Space. However, Liu Yun himself was practically crippled.
"Who exactly are you?"
Liu Yun moved, and the cage around him emitted a low rumble that sounded like metal clashing against light. Liu Yun was sent flying back.
Lu Yin walked towards him. "I'll ask you again. Do you want to leave?"
Outside the metal door, the cultivators from the Flowing Cloud Space screamed at the top of their lungs as they continuously attacked the metal door.
Liu Yun's eyes were bloodshot, and he was on the verge of tears. "Yes."
"I'll take you away, but I'll have to leave behind a counter force in your body. Are you willing?"
Lu Yin asked.
"What do you want me to do?
You want to control me? "
Liu Yun asked sternly.
Lu Yin frowned. "Extreme powerhouses will arrive soon, and we don't have much time left. I'll ask you again. Are you willing?"
Liu Yun's entire body trembled. As an extreme powerhouse, being imprisoned wasn't a big deal, but being controlled? Had there ever been an extreme powerhouse in the universe who had been controlled?
He had never heard of such a thing.
"No matter what, it can't be more painful than being locked up here. Listen to their cries of despair. Soon, not a single one will be left." Lu Yin was indifferent.
Liu Yun suddenly looked up. "Take them with us. I agree."
Lu Yin's lips curled up, and he raised a hand to attack Liu Yun with the Grim Reaper's Seal. Liu Yun shouted, "Destroy the vessel first, or your power won't be able to penetrate-" Before he could even finish speaking, the Grim Reaper's Seal passed through the vessel and entered Liu Yun's body.
Liu Yun was in disbelief. How was this possible?
This vessel could even trap him, but it couldn't block this person's power?
Or could it be that he couldn't leave from the inside, but the outside wasn't obstructed?
Of course not. Lu Yin could control space, and with Tai Xuan's enlightenment, he was becoming more and more proficient in using the power of space. His power was now immune to defenses to a certain extent. This was true control over space.
The moment the Grim Reaper's Seal entered Liu Yun's body, a pair of eyes opened in the distance. "Not good, there's movement!" The next moment, a black energy pierced through the heavens and headed towards the base.
Lu Yin took out his slippers and slammed them into the vessel, causing it to shatter into pieces. Liu Yun was stunned. Slippers?
He took out Mount Supreme and said, "Go in."
Liu Yun entered without hesitation.
Lu Yin raised a hand and slammed out, shattering the metal door.
Outside the door, the cultivators from the Drifting Cloud Space stared blankly at him, not expecting him to appear inside.
Little Mei's eyes widened in disbelief.
Suddenly, the black energy bombarded the base. "Die!" The entire base was destroyed, and the cultivators from the Drifting Cloud Space fell into despair.
Lu Yin knew that things weren't good. An extreme powerhouse had arrived, and he couldn't fight against them. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to explain himself to You Fang.
You Fang wouldn't believe that Lu Yin had the strength to fight against an extreme powerhouse, so he would definitely guess something.
The only thing Lu Yin could do was leave.
He tore through the void.
Outside the metal door, the cultivators from the Drifting Cloud Space were annihilated without even being able to scream.
The black energy pierced through the heavens and earth, mercilessly harvesting lives as it continued to expand.
No one could escape, as no one could withstand the wrath of an extreme powerhouse.
Lu Yin was just about to leave when he felt his heart palpitate. He looked back and saw that Little Mei was still standing in her original spot, not looking at the black energy that was sweeping towards her. Instead, she was looking at him.
There was a complicated look in her eyes, but it wasn't despair. Instead, it was relief. Lu Yin didn't know why, but at this moment, he tore through the void and grabbed her to escape the crushing black energy.
He didn't know why he did this, but he felt that this woman should be alive. Shouldn't people be alive?
The scene from the previous night had left a deep impression on him.
Lu Yin disappeared, and all of the cultivators from the Drifting Cloud Space were annihilated.
A man descended and looked inside the metal door. The vessel had been destroyed, and Liu Yun had disappeared.
The man's expression turned ugly, and the black energy spread out in an attempt to search for Liu Yun.
…
In the Eternal Kingdom, Little Mei fell from the sky and crashed onto the ground.
Lu Yin landed.
She looked at Lu Yin. "Where's Lord Liu Yun?"
Lu Yin looked at her. "Have you not considered your own safety?"
Little Mei was bitter. "How can my safety compare to Lord Liu Yun's?"
Lu Yin shook his head. If something had happened to the Fifth Mainland and he had been captured, many people would have suffered the same fate. Only by leaving the chance of survival to oneself could the Fifth Mainland be reborn.
Some extreme powerhouses were merciless and didn't care even if all the cultivators sacrificed themselves for them. However, Liu Yun wasn't that bad.
Lu Yin took out Mount Supreme, which he had obtained from Tu Shuangshuang. He wanted to ensure that Liu Yun wouldn't meet anyone since he was an extreme powerhouse.
When Mount Supreme appeared, Liu Yun immediately came out.
"Lord Liu Yun!" Little Mei was delighted.
Liu Yun floated in the air. His limbs had been corroded, so he could only remain like this.
He looked at Little Mei and then at Lu Yin. His voice was hoarse as he asked, "Where are the others?"
Lu Yin was helpless. "If an extreme powerhouse arrives, I won't be able to save them."
"You promised!" Liu Yun bellowed.
Lu Yin met his gaze. "I have my reasons. It seems like you want to use this as an excuse to cancel our deal. Why? Are you trying to remove the power in your body?"
Liu Yun obviously wasn't willing to be controlled. When he had been imprisoned, he had a different mindset. Now that he was free, and Lu Yin wasn't an extreme powerhouse, he naturally had a different mindset. However, Lu Yin's mysteriousness made him feel apprehensive, and he didn't know what to do.
His body hadn't recovered, and he could only use 50% of his power level at most.
"Lord Liu Yun!" Little Mei called out.
Liu Yun looked at her. "How's the Driftcloud Space?"
Little Mei's voice was hoarse as she replied, "It was conquered by a space-time warp machine, and our people became the first line of defense against the Eternals …"
Liu Yun listened quietly, as he had already expected all of this to happen. Currently, the Drifting Cloud Space only retained 1% of its original power level, and it had completely declined. If he could return to the Drifting Cloud Space, it would recover sooner or later. However, he still looked at Lu Yin. "Who exactly are you?
Why did you save me? "
Lu Yin laughed. "Get this straight. I'm not saving you. I'm trying to control you."
Little Mei glared at Lu Yin. "You want to control Lord Liu Yun?"
Lu Yin replied, "We're just using each other. I helped you bring him out, so what happens next is my own business."
"You're using us to hide yourself." Little Mei wasn't stupid. With Lu Yin's strength, he could have easily entered the base, but he had still chosen to stay with them. There could only be one reason: to disguise himself.
Liu Yun waved a hand and pushed Little Mei away. "Stay away. I don't believe that he can control me." He then stared at Lu Yin. "Kid, I'm very grateful that you brought me out. I can give you a chance to try and control me. If you can't do it, then we'll be even."
He then tried to expel the Grim Reaper's Seal from his body.
