That time, it was definitely not Cheng Kong. No matter how powerful Cheng Kong was, he would not be able to hide it from the Lost Clan. Furthermore, if it was Cheng Kong at that time, he would already be dead.
But this time, it was all for naught.
At the same time, the Great Stone Emperor suddenly opened his eyes. His pupils were lifeless, and he slowly turned around. He walked over to Lu Yin and raised his hand, causing a long blade to appear in it.
Lu Yin's face paled as beads of sweat dripped from his forehead. The Great Stone Emperor was clearly dead, but his body was still under Cheng Kong's control.
"I'll let you off this time. This time, I'll kill you again." The illusory voice sounded.
This was the second sentence, and also the last sentence that Lu Yin could hear.
The Great Stone Emperor's blade fell. In that instant, Lu Yin felt that not only was his body out of control, but he also had no instinctive defense. The Great Stone Emperor's blade was enough to kill him.
Cheng Kong took complete control of his body.
Only his mind was left with constant warnings.
His body was a vessel for his thoughts, and since he couldn't move his body, he could only watch as the blade descended.
Suddenly, the small knife that had been hanging around his neck floated. The knife light was like water. The knife in the Great Stone Emperor's hand began to shatter inch by inch. Then, his body shattered. The knife light continued to spread and slashed in one direction.
In the small intelligence gathering place, the saber beam slashed out 81 times. Each slash was enough to cause the void to collapse, but it did not cause any damage to the surrounding ground.
Lu Yin could clearly see these eighty-one slashes, but he knew that he could not avoid them no matter what he did. It was just like how he had endured the eighty-one slashes in the Lost Clan.
This time, it was Cheng Kong who received the eighty-one slashes.
When the 81st blade landed, formless undulations spread out, and Lu Yin's body was suddenly able to move again. He abruptly looked up and saw that the heavens had collapsed. Above his head, endless darkness spread out, and the Void Realm seemed to want to devour the entire stone world.
Lu Yin's scalp went numb, and he hurriedly fled. He didn't even dare to stir up the spatial threads for fear of being swallowed up by the Void Realm.
After he left the place where the intelligence was gathered, he looked back. That place had completely disappeared, and there was nothing left.
A piece of space disappeared.
Lu Yin was scared. If not for Xiao Dao, he would have been dead!
Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that Cheng Kong would suddenly appear in Dashi Kong and try to kill him.
His appearance was no accident.
Every time he let him go, he would kill him again.
Was this referring to the Sixth Mainland?
Back then, Lu Yin had felt that it was strange. With Cheng Kong's strength, he should not have been helpless against Lu Yin back in the Sixth Mainland. However, Lu Yin had escaped at that time, which meant that Cheng Kong had probably let Lu Yin go. This time, however, Lu Yin was trying to kill Lu Yin.
Does this mean that he let me go because of other reasons or because of other people?
Black Wushen?
Lu Yin's first thought was of him. This was an opportunity that he had not hesitated to join forces with several of the Seven Skygods to attack the Three Sovereigns Space-Time.
So, what about now?
Was Cheng Kong still around?
Lu Yin didn't dare to stay for long, and he headed straight for the Gemini Spacetime.
Cheng Kong was certain that Cheng Kong was not someone who could use space. In that case, as long as he did not fall under Cheng Kong's control, he should not be discovered by Cheng Kong.
He wanted to contact Bodhi Sage and tell him what happened to Da Shikong.
He touched his chest and found that the knife was gone.
If he wasn't wrong, that knife might have come from the woodcarving senior. However, he didn't have any dealings with that senior, so why would he leave a knife for him?
If it wasn't for this small knife, he would already be dead.
If it was really left behind by Senior Woodcut, then his strength might not be as unfathomable as the rumors said.
Regardless of whether it was the Six Direction Society or the Eternals, there were too many unsolved mysteries.
Right now, Lu Yin needed to explain the Da Shikong's death. Otherwise, he would be framed by the Shaoyin Divinity.
When he arrived at the Gemini Space-Time, Lu Yin found the two elders and asked them to bring him to the place where the information was gathered.
He wanted to talk to Bodhi Sage.
On Limitless' side, Bodhi Sage heaved a sigh of relief.
They had been trying to contact the place where Da Shikong's information was gathered, but they had been unable to do so. At that time, they had known that something had gone wrong and had sent people to investigate. However, they were not as fast as Lu Yin.
"How did you survive Cheng Kong's attack?" Bodhi Sage asked.
Lu Yin replied, "I have my ways."
This answer did not satisfy Bodhi Sage, as the Six Direction Society hated Cheng Kong even more than the Seven Skygods.
Although the Seven Skygods were powerful, that was only on the surface. However, Cheng Kong was cunning and had many tricks up his sleeve. He could even control people. He alone had caused far more damage to the Six Direction Society than the Seven Skygods, and the number of powerhouses who had died at his hands was not just two or three like the rumors said.
Bodhi Sage and the others did not tell anyone else about this.
Cheng Kong was publicly acknowledged as the executioner of powerhouses, and even the Three Sovereigns feared him. If Cheng Kong found an opportunity, no one would be able to survive.
Logically speaking, Cheng Kong was the one who had found this opportunity. No one had expected Cheng Kong to try to kill Lu Yin in Da Shikong's territory, but Lu Yin had still managed to survive.
Bodhi Sage did not suspect Lu Yin, as Lu Yin's past made it impossible for him to collude with the Eternals. There was also no need for him to put on an act with Cheng Kong.
"I understand. The place where Da Shikong's information was gathered will be rebuilt as soon as possible. As for giving Da Shikong a green light, that is temporarily impossible. You have no way of confirming that Cheng Kong has left Da Shikong's territory," Bodhi Sage replied.
Lu Yin was helpless. Indeed, he had no way of confirming whether Cheng Kong was dead or alive.
He had a strong sense of danger, and he had constantly released the power from his heart to prevent Cheng Kong from attacking him.
His rune lines could not find Cheng Kong, and he could not even find space. However, the power from his heart was like a separate space-time. As long as Cheng Kong approached him, he should be able to sense him.
After contacting Bodhi Sage, Lu Yin left. This place was not safe.
Lu Yin casually found a place to rest, and no one knew where he was. No matter how powerful Cheng Kong was, he would not be able to find him unless he could locate Lu Yin.
If Lu Yin could locate Cheng Kong, he would not have hidden in the place where Da Shikong's information was gathered.
Moreover, Cheng Kong had endured eighty-one slashes, so it was impossible for him to be unscathed. Even the Seven Skygods would be wary of such power.
After a while, the Cloudconnect Stone trembled and an unfamiliar voice sounded out. It was a woman, "Bodhi Sage's subordinate greets Mister Lu."
Lu Yin's voice was low, "How is it?"
"The place where Da Shikong's information was gathered has completely disappeared. We have not found Cheng Kong, so we cannot give you the green light. My apologies."
"I know, but if we can confirm that Cheng Kong is dead, then I'll take the credit," Lu Yin asked.
"Of course. If there are no more traces of Cheng Kong's activities after this, and no one can provide better proof than you, then Cheng Kong's death will be credited to you," the woman replied. She had a unique gift that allowed her to sense the power left behind at the scene.
After arriving at the place where Da Shikong's information was gathered, although this place had been devoured by the Void Realm, there were still remnants of power that she could sense. She could sense an unimaginably terrifying blade intent and also the power of Cheng Kong's illusory bubble.
From what she could sense, there was no powerhouse that could survive such a blade intent, and Cheng Kong should not be an exception.
However, without confirming Cheng Kong's death, she could not give Lu Yin the credit.
Nevertheless, this credit should belong to Lu Yin.
If Cheng Kong had really been killed by Lu Yin, then his credit would be enormous.
"There is one more thing that I should tell you," the woman said and muttered to herself, "Da Shikong's death is not to be regretted."
Lu Yin raised his eyebrows, "Why?"
"After this investigation, we discovered that Da Shikong had already contacted the outside world and secretly left the Endless Battlefield to locate the outside world in a parallel universe. He wanted to take advantage of Da Shikong's green light to lead some people from the Da Shikong Empire away from Da Shikong and the Endless Battlefield. Such a person deserves to die."
Lu Yin was silent. No wonder Da Shikong's attitude was so strange.
Da Shikong could have let the camphor worms and the Foo Technique consume each other, but he wanted Lu Yin to give Da Shikong the green light. Giving Da Shikong the green light meant that there was no war in this part of the universe and that he could leave with his people. Even if they were discovered by the Six Direction Society, as long as they left at the moment the green light was given, they would not be considered leaving the battlefield.
Did he deserve to die?
Lu Yin did not think so.
No one wanted to live in the Endless Battlefield, let alone in the universe where Da Shikong could never break through to the level of an extreme powerhouse.
Da Shikong wanted to leave and live so that he could give his descendants a stable environment to live in. This was true, but to the Six Direction Society, this was wrong and deserved to die.
The Six Direction Society hoped that everyone in the Endless Battlefield would stand at the front line and die for them.
From the looks of it, Da Shikong might have contacted the Six Direction Society first before being forced into the Endless Battlefield.
Da Shikong's attitude toward the Six Direction Society was also fake.
Unfortunately, he was dead.
Otherwise, Lu Yin would not have exposed this kind of thing.
Everyone had the right to live.
Da Shikong could not give Da Shikong the green light for the time being, so Lu Yin decided to go to the next parallel universe.
He now knew that basically every three parallel universes would have one that was very difficult to deal with, such as Xiao Ling Universe, Gemini Universe, and Da Shikong. Da Shikong had a Progenitor battlefield, so it was more difficult to give Da Shikong the green light. However, the next parallel universe might not be as difficult as the Gemini Universe.
He decided to go to the next parallel universe.
However, Bodhi Saint explained that the rule of the Endless Battlefield was that the three adjacent parallel universes would give Da Shikong the green light. No one had expected this situation.
Lu Yin told her his idea, and the woman waited for a moment before telling Lu Yin that it was okay.
There was a 99% chance that Da Shikong was no longer in Da Shikong, but they could not give Lu Yin the green light because they could not prove it. Allowing Lu Yin to go to the next parallel universe was a special case. Otherwise, Lu Yin could only go to the Dark Universe. The Dark Universe was also an adjacent universe to the Gemini Universe, so giving Da Shikong the green light in that universe was far from being comparable.
Lu Yin planned to go to Da Shikong and then go to the next parallel universe through Da Shikong.
The woman contacted him again. "Dao Master Lu, Divine Sovereign Shaoyin sent you a message through Limitless. Are you willing to listen?"
Lu Yin paused, and his face sank. It was definitely not a good thing for Divine Sovereign Shaoyin to take the initiative to send him a message.
However, he definitely had to listen. "Speak."
The woman spoke slowly, her tone slightly gloomy. "Wendy Yushan accidentally entered the Endless Battlefield. I don't know exactly where she went, but she must have gone to one of the three below."
She paused, and Lu Yin's face sank completely. However, he looked extremely calm on the outside.
The thing he was most worried about had happened. Lu Yin had not wanted to let Wendy Yushan and Zhuo Daynight go to the Six Direction Society because he was afraid that someone would threaten him. However, they had been resolute, and Lu Yin could not force them to stay. He had planned to let them return after some time, but as time passed, he had forgotten about it.
He had not expected the Divine Sovereign Shaoyin to do such a despicable thing.
