A few days later, the maid requested an audience with the fruit fish that Lu Yin wanted.
Lu Yin accepted the fruit fish, which lived in the Outerverse's Astral River. The Fisherman's Club loved to fish for them, and even the Daynight clan found it difficult to obtain them.
He had eaten them once on Nightking Planet, and they had left a deep impression on him.
The Eternals should not have much power in the Genesis Space, but they were still able to obtain fruit fish.
"How did you get them?" Lu Yin could not help but ask.
The maid could not answer, as she did not know either.
Lu Yin did not ask any more questions. There were five fruit fish, and he casually handed one to the maid. "You can eat it."
The maid was shocked, and she hurriedly knelt down. "Master, please forgive me. I dare not, I dare not."
"It's just a fish. What's wrong with that?" Lu Yin was puzzled.
The maid continued to kowtow, and Lu Yin saw that her head was about to bleed. "Alright, get up. I'll eat it myself."
The maid relaxed and slowly stood up, her eyes filled with intense fear.
"What are you afraid of?" Lu Yin asked.
The maid bowed respectfully. "It's my fortune to be able to serve you, Master. I dare not dream of receiving your favor."
Lu Yin looked at her. "What about your family?"
The maid trembled, and she knelt down again. "Please forgive me, Master. Please forgive me, Master …"
"Alright, I won't ask anymore." Lu Yin grew impatient.
The maid was terrified, and she slowly got up and left the tower.
Her family had either been transformed into Corpse Kings or had died. She was not a Corpse King herself, which was considered very lucky. Thus, it was understandable that she was so fearful.
Lu Yin looked at the five fruit fish and thought about it. He really did want to eat them, but he casually tossed them out. He was Night Moe, not Lu Yin. These fruit fish were just a test, and he would not actually eat them.
…
The Eternals did not have as many secrets as Lu Yin had imagined. Although this place was mysterious, it was as if he had seen through everything about the Eternals.
The astral gates in the sky, the rivers of divine power on the ground, the Mother Tree in the darkness, and the many towers that stood tall. If Lu Yin wanted to, he could walk through the entire Zone of Disaster and count the towers.
However, this was meaningless. Although the Progenitor Corpse Kings of the True God Guards were just tools, they still had the destructive power of a Progenitor. They did not have towers, but there were many of them.
In the blink of an eye, a month had already passed since Lu Yin arrived in the Calamity Zone.
In this month, other than participating in the space-time destruction war, there was nothing else to do.
The ancestor of the past did not appear again.
Lu Yin didn't have anything to instruct the maid.
He followed the river of god power and walked for a while. Along the way, he didn't meet a single person or a corpse king. This Calamity Region was terrifyingly silent.
Yu Huo had said that this place was close to the innermost region, and there were many Eternal Kingdoms in the periphery.
Just as he was about to leave, Lu Yin suddenly stopped and turned around to see a man walking over from afar. When he saw Lu Yin look over, the man smiled. Although it was an ugly smile, he was doing his best to appear friendly.
Lu Yin stood still and stared at the man.
This person's appearance was ugly, but he was a Progenitor. The closer he got, the clearer Lu Yin could sense that this person did not give him a sense of danger. Among the Progenitors, this person was at most comparable to the Sixth Mainland's Martial Ancestor.
"My name is Seven Friends. May I ask for brother's name?" The ugly man approached and asked politely. He secretly glanced at Li He.
Liu looked at Lu Yin with respect.
He had seen Lu Yin walk out from the depths of the Zone of Disaster, and Lu Yin's status was higher than his own. However, Lu Yin's appearance was too young, so he didn't know how to address him.
Lu Yin said coldly, "Yebo."
Seven Friends smiled. "So it's Brother Yebo. Sorry for disturbing you."
Lu Yin looked at him. "You approached me on purpose."
Seven Friends was stunned and smiled. "Since Brother Yebo is a straightforward person, then I'll be frank. May I ask if Brother Yebo is looking for a True God's ultimate technique?"
Lu Yin stared at Seven Friends. A True God's ultimate technique?
Seven Friends also stared at Lu Yin, but he could not see through him. Lu Yin's gaze had not changed from start to finish. "If Brother Yebo doesn't want to say it, then so be it. However, Brother, you can't keep searching like this. The Zone of Disaster is vast and far surpasses the average space-time. It's impossible to search by following the river of divine power. Brother, have you ever thought of working together?"
Lu Yin retracted his gaze and looked at the river of divine power. He seemed to be thinking.
Seven Friends said seriously, "Rumor has it that under the flowing divine power of the Zone of Disaster, there are three ultimate techniques cultivated by the only True God. Obtaining any one of these ultimate techniques will allow one to directly become the Eighth Skygod and even have a chance of being taken in as a disciple by the True God. Countless years have passed, and many people have searched for it, but no one has found it. It's impossible for Brother Yebo to search for it alone."
"Since no one has found it, how can we be sure that there really is an ultimate technique?" Lu Yin asked coldly.
Seven Friends laughed. "Because there is a rumor that one of the Seven Skygods has obtained an ultimate technique, and this rumor has been confirmed by the ancestors."
"It's because of this rumor that so many powerhouses have searched for it. However, this river of divine power makes it impossible to cultivate, let alone search for it."
"We have all failed in our attempts to cultivate divine power. Those who succeed are either the captains of the True God Guards or powerhouses like Cheng Kong."
At this point, he stared at Lu Yin. "If I'm not wrong, Brother Yebo is the captain of the True God Guards."
Lu Yin looked at Seven Friends. "Why do you say that?"
Seven Friends said, "This branch of the divine power river does not pass by any towers. The next tower that can be passed by is located in the region of the True God Guards. Since Brother Yebo has followed this branch of the river, it is very likely that he is the captain of the True God Guards. Moreover, if he is not a captain of the True God Guards who can cultivate divine power, how would he dare to search for an ultimate technique alone?"
"You haven't seen the captains of the True God Guards?"
"I have, and I've seen all of them. However, the recent battles have been intense, and the captains of the True God Guards have died one after another. It is not impossible for Brother Yebo to replace them."
"What kind of battle can kill the captains of the True God Guards?" Lu Yin pretended to be curious.
Seven Friends looked around and whispered, "Naturally, it's the Six Direction Society."
"Of all the wars that the Eternal Race has started, only the Six Direction Society can cause such a huge commotion. I heard that even the Seven Skygods were forced into seclusion to recuperate."
Lu Yin's eyes flickered. "Is the Six Direction Society the greatest enemy of the Eternal Race?"
Seven Friends' expression changed. "Brother Yebo, it's better not to discuss this matter. After all, it involves the Seven Skygods."
Lu Yin did not say anything else.
"Brother Yebo should be the captain of the True God Guards, right?" Seven Friends asked.
Lu Yin said indifferently, "You guessed wrong. No."
Seven Friends was puzzled. "That shouldn't be the case. This branch of the river."
"I'm roaming around."
"Roaming around the Calamity Realm?
Brother Yebo, you sure are leisurely and elegant. "
Seven Friends rolled his eyes. Only an idiot would believe that. The Calamity Realm was not a place with a good environment, so who would roam around here?
If they were careless and encountered an unreasonable old monster, they would be annihilated.
So what if they died?
It was normal to encounter Corpse Kings here, but if they encountered humans, they were all traitors, and none of them had good natures.
This was especially true for the deeper regions, which were even more terrifying.
In the distant sky, a Corpse King walked out of a starry door. Then, countless people walked out in an orderly manner. They were all human cultivators.
Lu Yin watched in a daze. Were these cultivators that had been defeated?
He was very clear about what would happen to these cultivators.
Seven Friends also looked into the distance and sighed. "Another parallel space-time has been defeated. I estimate that at least several billion cultivators will be transformed into Corpse Kings."
"Where will they be transformed?" Lu Yin asked.
Seven Friends subconsciously answered, "The stars next to the stargates. Every stargate has a star next to it so that it's convenient to store Corpse Kings. Eh, you don't know?"
"I just joined," Lu Yin said.
Seven Friends' face twitched. "Then you don't know about the ultimate technique either?"
Lu Yin looked at Seven Friends. "I don't know."
Seven Friends was speechless. This guy had really just been strolling around and not looking for the ultimate technique. What a waste of breath.
Seven Friends wanted to beat this person up. If not for the fact that he felt like he could not defeat this person, he would not even know where this person had come from. Was he inside or outside?
Seven Friends did not dare to take the risk.
High in the sky, an old woman walked out of a stargate covered in blood. She looked around in confusion, especially when she saw the black tree and the flowing waterfall of divine power. Her face was filled with shock.
Seven Friends cackled. "Another one who betrayed the humans and joined the Eternals. This should be her first time in the Calamity Region. Look at her shocked expression. How interesting."
Lu Yin could see that the old woman was still in shock and was covered in blood. She had clearly just gone through a battle and joined the Eternals before her death. Otherwise, she would not be in such a state. If she was a spy, she would be pleased with herself.
"Brother Yebo, did you betray the humans and come here as well?" Seven Friends suddenly asked.
Lu Yin looked at Seven Friends with an unfriendly gaze.
Seven Friends hurriedly explained, "Brother, don't misunderstand. I don't mean anything else. We're all the same. I betrayed the humans and came here as well. Fortunately, the Eternals accept human betrayal. If it were a creature like a beast, it would be difficult to accept."
When Lu Yin did not answer, Seven Friends' eyes flashed coldly. "Actually, betraying the humans isn't something shameful. Everyone has the right to live. My survival is equivalent to representing the continuation of the humans in our timeline. Isn't that the same?
It's not like I'm going to become a Corpse King. "
Lu Yin did not look at Seven Friends. Instead, he quietly looked up at the sky. The cultivators were lining up to head towards the star, and that old woman had survived in their place. What a good reason.
"Actually, the Eternals aren't as scary as we think. The Eternal Kingdoms in the outer regions are not bad, just like the human cities. Brother Yebo, have you taken a look?" Seven Friends asked.
Lu Yin looked at him. "I didn't betray the humans."
Seven Friends was stunned and looked at him in confusion.
"I just … hate," Lu Yin said coldly as he walked forward.
Seven Friends took a while to react. Hate?
Was that different?
Was there a difference?
What was there to be proud of?
He looked at Lu Yin's back. Did Lu Yin really think that he could sit back and relax after joining the Eternals? The Eternals faced many battles, and some of them were unassisted. Let's see how long Lu Yin could survive.
"Just wait and see."
Seven Friends spat and turned to leave. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed. Someone had appeared behind him at some point in time.
Seven Friends had not sensed this person's arrival at all.
Lu Yin was walking far away when he sensed the presence. He stopped and turned around. It was Divine Sovereign Shaoyin.
