In the blink of an eye, the Thousand Streams of Dao had been scattered by the slipper, turning into liquid that spilled onto the ground. The liquid reflected the Divine Seal Catalog's golden light, making Lu Yin look like a god looking down on the earth.
The Thunder-Sealing Clan immediately knelt down.
Ah Mei's mouth was wide open as she stared blankly. This person actually had the power to fight against Lord Liu Yun? Who was he?
Liu Yun's eyes narrowed as he stared at Lu Yin, his face filled with disbelief. The strongest power that he could unleash right now was the Thousand Streams Dao Breaker. To put it bluntly, even if there were more than a thousand Half-Martial Ancestors standing here, the Thousand Streams Dao Breaker would still be able to destroy them.
Could that slipper have been obtained from a Grand Empyrean?
"Who are you?"
Liu Yun asked in shock, looking at Lu Yin in a completely different light.
Lu Yin's lips curled up as Nong Yi walked out from behind him. A hoe suddenly appeared in his hand, and he swung it down, using the Nong family's battle technique: Farming.
The hoe seemed like a child's play, but it gave Liu Yun a strong sense of danger. This was a hoe that the Nong family's ancestor had wielded with the power of a Progenitor. Farming was a rather strange battle technique, as anyone who used this technique could be used by Nong Yi. The figures continuously overlapped as if there were countless people farming. They instantly merged together and pressed down on Liu Yun.
Above Liu Yun's head, a physical attack slammed into him from below.
There was a thump as the void exploded, and an invisible darkness appeared. This was a world of nothingness that was slowly being torn apart.
Lu Yin took advantage of this opportunity to strike out with a palm. The black substance's undying palm force sent Liu Yun flying and crashing into the ground.
Liu Yun crashed into the ground and sank deep into the earth. He coughed up a mouthful of blood, but his heart was still shaken. This person had not only cultivated a power that could affect the laws, but his own power was also extremely strong. Even those in the Hyperspace Continuum who used black energy sources might not be able to injure him.
Lu Yin looked up and looked down at him. "What do you think now?"
Liu Yun's mouth was bleeding, but he gritted his teeth. "If not for my limbs being crippled, my blade would be enough to kill you."
"You know blade techniques as well?"
Lu Yin was astonished.
Liu Yun sighed helplessly. "My blade once cut down an extremely strong person who transcended space-time. That's why my limbs were crippled. My blade is my strongest weapon. You won with an unfair advantage."
"You're the one who's being controlled, so what's there to talk about? If you're not convinced, we can continue. Actually, I never planned on saving you. If you weren't of any use to me, I would've killed you right now."
"No," Ah Mei shouted. She ran over and knelt on the ground. "Please don't hurt Lord Liu Yun, I beg you."
Liu Yun gritted his teeth. "Get up. The people of the Drifting Cloud Space don't need anyone's pity."
Ah Mei did not listen and continued to plead.
Lu Yin looked at Ah Mei and then at Liu Yun, "Don't you want to save the Drifting Cloud Space?"
Ah Mei's pleading stopped. Underground, Liu Yun's eyes trembled. He thought of the space of Liu Yun, of those who worshipped him and followed him to cultivate, and of those who sacrificed themselves behind the metal door. The screams of those people kept ringing in his ears. Although he could not see them, Liu Yun could feel their despair deeply. How many cultivators had died over the years?
It was just that Hyperspace needed data and experiments; he did not treat them as humans at all.
Those people's deaths were something he could never forget, and he could never forgive Hyperspace.
Although the strong preyed on the weak, results were the only things that mattered. These four words could never resolve the grudges of the world.
"Do you have the right to die?"
Lu Yin asked coldly as he looked down at Liu Yun.
Liu Yun's eyes narrowed.
How could he be willing to die?
He was not satisfied. If he did not take revenge and save the Drifting Cloud Space, he would not be satisfied even if he died.
"Ask this woman. How many cultivators of the Drifting Cloud Space die every day? How many are in despair? They can't see a tomorrow, but they still wait for it. They think that you can return, that you can rebuild the Drifting Cloud Space, that you can save them from their misery, but you're here begging for death," Lu Yin said.
Liu Yun shouted, "You want to control me with this?"
"That's right." Lu Yin did not refute him. "I want to control you. Otherwise, why would I save you? You can die, but can you?
Do you have the right to die?
Do you live for yourself?
From the moment those cultivators of the Drifting Cloud Space died to save you, your life is no longer your own. Go look at that metal door and see how many cultivators of the Drifting Cloud Space are stained with their blood. Ask this woman what their greatest wish is every day. Even if they know that they might die the next moment, they still hope for a miracle. They hope that you can appear on the battlefield and bring them back. "
Lu Yin's every word made Liu Yun's heart tremble, and he found it hard to refute.
"You still want self-respect?
What a joke. "Lu Yin was indifferent.
Ah Mei knelt in front of him, not saying a word. Lu Yin's words were what everyone in the Drifting Cloud Space hoped for. They hoped that Liu Yun would return and save them, not die here.
Liu Yun fell silent.
Lu Yin did not speak either.
Ah Mei continued to kneel on the ground.
After a long time, Liu Yun lay on his back and spoke in a dry and numb voice, "What's your name?"
Lu Yin looked down and saw Liu Yun staring at him. "Lu Yin."
Liu Yun asked, "Lu Yin?
How do you want to control me? "
Lu Yin replied, "Sealed God."
Liu Yun was at a loss.
Above Lu Yin's head, the God Seal Catalog's golden light grew even more resplendent. Nong Yi's figure had already disappeared, as Lu Yin no longer needed to borrow Nong Yi's strength. "This is my Lu family's innate gift, the God Seal Catalog. It can be used, and it can only borrow the strength of an extreme powerhouse. As long as you're willing, I can seal you as a god. Using the God Seal Catalog to borrow your strength must be voluntary. If you're unwilling …" Lu Yin paused for a moment. "As long as you're unwilling, you won't be able to hide from the God Seal Catalog.
The consequence of that is that you're an extreme powerhouse. Besides, you know that I saved you in the Hyperspace, which is too dangerous for me. I'm not sure if you'll join the Hyperspace for the sake of the Drifting Cloud Space and give up your so-called self-respect. "
"I don't want my own spacetime to become the next Drifting Cloud Space. I don't dare to gamble, and the people in my spacetime shouldn't be gambled by me. They have the freedom to live."
Some people were too naive, resulting in irreversible consequences. Lu Yin had things he needed to do, and there were people he needed to protect. For this reason, no matter how ruthless he was, there was nothing he could do.
How great would it have been if the Genesis Space had never made contact with the Six Directions Society?
How great would it be if the Genesis Space had never made contact with the Everlasting Race?
This was the cruel universe. Once exposed, unless one tried their best to survive, they would either be conquered or destroyed.
The Genesis Space didn't need a benevolent Ruler; they needed someone who could lead them to survive and control their own freedom.
Liu Yun's gaze turned sinister. "I will never join the Hyperspace. I just want to destroy it."
"You shouldn't destroy the Hyperspace, but rather the people who reduced the cultivators of the Drifting Cloud Space to demi-humans. They were the ones who experimented on them. Most of the people in the Hyperspace are innocent. My Lu family was exiled to the Everlasting Race by the Six-Way Association, and their fate is unknown. I can't take revenge on the entire Six-Way Association," Lu Yin said. He didn't want to save a lunatic.
Liu Yun stared blankly at Lu Yin. "Your family is gone as well?"
Lu Yin sighed. "You'll find out soon enough. So, are you willing to become a god?"
Liu Yun looked deeply at Lu Yin. "Yes."
Ah Mei's body trembled, and her gaze became complicated. She didn't know what the consequences of becoming a god would be, but this person kept saying that he would be controlled. Once he became a god, Lord Liu Yun would be controlled. Ah Mei wanted to stop him, but what could she do?
Even Lord Liu Yun couldn't resist.
She didn't want Lord Liu Yun to die.
He was the symbol of the Drifting Cloud Space, and without him, the Drifting Cloud Space would truly be gone.
Was it acceptable to be controlled by someone else in order to survive?
Ah Mei didn't know, and she didn't need to know.
Liu Yun had already thought things through, and he slowly floated up to face Lu Yin. His expression was numb, but there was a bone-chilling coldness in the depths of his eyes. "I can be controlled by you, but I hope to have a chance to take revenge. My Drifting Cloud Space has been controlled by the Hyperspace Association, which means that I have some value. If possible, let me bring some people over."
Rather than calling it a request, it was more like a plea. A dignified Progenitor had fallen to the point where he needed to beg. If not for the people of the Drifting Cloud Space, he would have happily died.
Lu Yin thought back to Ah Mei's despair and helplessness that night, as well as Liu Yun's current numbness. Weaklings were like this, and Lu Yin never wanted to become one.
The golden light from the Divine Seal Catalog grew even more resplendent. Where there was light, there was also darkness. Under the illumination of the golden light, Liu Yun's figure moved.
"Liu Yun, are you willing to become a god?"
Lu Yin asked. His voice was different from usual; it was now more solemn and sacred.
Liu Yun took a deep breath and replied in a low voice, "Yes."
"Are you willing to become a god?"
Lu Yin asked again.
"Yes," Liu Yun replied quickly this time. Since he had made his decision, he would not go back on it.
The next moment, the figure behind him moved towards the Divine Seal Catalog. Once it entered the Divine Seal Catalog, Lu Yin could borrow this figure to fight, regardless of whether or not he was Liu Yun's enemy.
The first person to attempt to become a god was Senior Mu Xie, but he had failed. Senior Mu Xie's power level was too high, and Lu Yin could not withstand the backlash.
The second person to attempt to become a god was Nong Yi. That success had given Lu Yin the confidence to attempt to become a god. Liu Yun might not necessarily be stronger than Nong Yi, and Lu Yin himself was much stronger than before. As for Chen Le, Lu Yin did not want to reveal too much, and Chen Le would definitely not be willing to become a god from the bottom of his heart.
With a boom, Lu Yin's mind shook, and he felt as if something had appeared in his mind. The figure then entered the Divine Seal Catalog. Godhood: Success! From now on, there was one more person in the Divine Seal Catalog: Liu Yun, who possessed the Thousand Streams Dao Break.
Liu Yun looked at the new figure in the Divine Seal Catalog and was filled with shock. This person could really borrow his strength. The Divine Seal Catalog was such a supreme name. Was this an innate gift?
If this person had it, then his clansmen should have it as well. Even so, why had such a powerful family been exiled?
It should not have been the Chronos Transcendence. Even the Chronos Transcendence had trouble dealing with Lu Yin, let alone such a terrifying family. Could it be that Grand Empyrean?
