Lu Yin remained silent.
The Ancestor had always been a key figure that he had been wary of. After all, someone who could make the Star Toad greet and call the Grand Empyrean "Tai Hong" could not be weak.
In the battle against Victorious Celestial, she had forced the Void God back with a single strike. Lu Yin knew that she was strong, but he had still underestimated her.
One person and one sword had forced the Lu family to cultivate the Primogenitor's Scripture to make up for their lack of spiritual force. It was easy to imagine how much the Ancestor feared her. She must be at the same level as the Ancestor, or perhaps a powerhouse who had survived the Bitter Adversity. That was why the Star Toad was wary of her.
The Wood Deity was the trump card prepared for this battle, and Victorious Celestial was an accident. Even with the addition of these two powerhouses, they still could not suppress the Eternals. The Star Toad, Arrow God, and Ancient God were all extremely powerful, and now the Qing Luo Jiantian had appeared as well. Unless all of the Spacetime Masters of the Six-Direction Association came out, there would be no point in continuing the battle.
The two people that Lu Yin hated the most were Mu Ji and Wang Fan. Wang Fan was one thing, since he knew that Wang Fan was a traitor, and Lu Yin could get rid of him in the future. However, Mu Ji was different; he had actually seen through Lu Yin's disguise as Ye Bo. If Lu Yin did not get rid of him, then Lu Yin's identity as Ye Bo would be useless.
But at this moment, the Ancestor of the Ancient Era revealed her identity and acted. Maybe it was because of Mu Ji. Before this, she had saved Mu Ji by stabbing him with her sword. Now, she attacked again when he was preparing to act against Mu Ji. Was Mu Ji very important to her?
Lu Yin looked at Mu Ji.
Mu Ji kept retreating. Even though the Ancestor was intimidating the battlefield, he was still wary of Lu Yin.
He was already very far away from Lu Yin.
Lu Yin was helpless. It was impossible to kill Mu Ji in this situation.
"If not for Victorious Celestial, this battle would have ended. Daolord Lu, can we end this battle now?" the Ancestor asked for the third time.
There was no other sound besides the Star Toad's strange cries.
The Ancient God and Arrow God did not attack again.
The Ancestor had forced the humans to stop fighting, which proved that the humans still had some advantage in the Realm of Tragedy. However, if they really fought to the death, the casualties on both sides would be immeasurable.
Moreover, the Ancestor of the Ancient Era hadn't used her full strength so she definitely had her misgivings. This was the main point.
At this point, he didn't want so many human powerhouses to accompany the first Zone of Disaster. Of course, even if the Eternals didn't want to end this war, he could still retreat with the humans. If he didn't have the confidence to retreat, how would he dare to attack the Zone of Disaster?
As for the Progenitors who had died, this was a war, and there were always casualties. The Eternals had suffered far more losses than the humans. No matter how deep the Eternals' foundations were, they still had to find a way to see through them. This path would lead to many deaths, and even Lu Yin himself might die. However, this was a path that had to be taken, and it was impossible for them to win without even seeing through the Eternals' foundations. It was unrealistic.
"This battle is over."
These words spread throughout the Land of Calamity, causing both sides to heave a sigh of relief. Although the battle hadn't been going on for long, both sides had suffered casualties. This was something that had never happened before. If the battle had continued, who knew how many people would have died.
"This won't do. Ya ya ya ya, I'm going to kill that human. He wants to cook me, I'm going to kill him." The Star Toad was discontent. It hopped about in the starry heavens, stepping on the void.
Wood Deity was on guard.
The Ancestor of the Past looked up at the sky. "Your reward will be increased by 10%."
The moment he said this, the Star Toad's entire demeanor changed. It turned into a businessman who only moved its mouth and did not move its hands. It held onto a lotus flower and said with a fawning expression, "Thank you, Boss."
Both sides retreated. The humans retreated to the entrance of the Land of Calamity while the Eternals retreated to the black mother tree. They exchanged glances, and both sides could see the uncontrollable killing intent in each other's eyes.
If possible, one side would definitely destroy the other.
Lu Yin looked at the Eternals and glanced at Mu Ji, Wang Fan, Wang Xiaoyu, the Shaoyin Divinity, the Ancient God, the Arrow God, and the others. Finally, his gaze landed on the Ancestor of the Past.
The Ancestor of the Past also stared at Lu Yin.
They looked at each other deeply.
…
After the humans retreated from the Land of Calamity, Mu Ji and the others finally relaxed.
The Ancient God said in a low voice, "Our clan's greatest mistake was allowing Lu Xiaoxuan to grow. This battle was completely caused by him."
Wang Fan added, "Lu Xiaoxuan is now the human race's flag. The Lu family is very skilled in this aspect, so we must find a way to deal with him."
The Shaoyin Divinity's gaze turned cold. "That little bastard must die."
The Ancestor of the Past calmly replied, "It won't be too late. It's not worth it to fight to the death with them now. Once the bone boats arrive, the Hexagon Association will become history. Everyone, please remain calm."
The two words "bone boats" caused the Shaoyin Divinity's expression to change. That was the Eternals' absolute killing weapon.
The Arrow God spoke up, his tone cold. "Your first Land of Calamity is very lively."
The Ancestor of the Past looked at the Arrow God. "Why? Are you interested?
You can fill the vacancy of the Seven Skygods. "
The Arrow God turned to leave. "Not interested."
The Three Pillars, Six Boundless, and Seven Skygods overlapped with each other. Although their strengths were similar, their corresponding responsibilities were different.
If the Arrow God joined the Seven Skygods, she would have to give up on the battle in the Fifth Land of Calamity and stay in the First Land of Calamity, just like Hei Wushen. This was the general direction that the Eternals had set for the Hexagon Association, and no one could change it.
"In the past, your First Land of Calamity rarely participated in the Chosen God Battle. This time, I hope that you can participate. Although my Fifth Land of Calamity is not as fierce as your First Land of Calamity, the elites that we nurture will not be any weaker than yours." The Arrow God's voice came from afar, landing in the ears of the Ancestor of the Past, Ancient God, and the others.
The Ancient God shook his head. "My First Land of Calamity is facing a constant shortage of experts, not to mention sending elites to participate in the Chosen God Battle. Moreover, my First Land of Calamity can directly face a True God without needing to go through the Chosen God Battle. The Seven Skygods' position also does not need to be determined through the Chosen God Battle, so there's no point in participating."
The Ancestor of the Past said indifferently, "It's because of this privilege that the other five Land of Calamity are quite dissatisfied with us. The Seven Skygods are equivalent to the Three Pillars and Six Boundless, and the Three Pillars and Six Boundless need to determine their substitutes through the Chosen God Battle. However, the Seven Skygods can allow our First Land of Calamity to fill in their positions, which makes them feel that it's unfair."
"Moreover, those who passed the Chosen God Battle have all come to my First Land of Calamity. Only a few survived the long war, while the rest died in battle, which made the other Land of Calamity unhappy. Otherwise, the Arrow God wouldn't specially mention it. if she mentioned it, the other Land of Calamity must be more concerned about it.
The Ancient God looked at the Ancestor of the Past.
The Ancestor of the Past said, "Participate."
The Ancient God didn't object. "What about the candidates?
The First Land of Calamity's True God guards have lost nearly half of their captains. Cheng Kong was a very good candidate, but he died as well. "
As he spoke, he looked at the Shao Yin Divinity. "Shao Yin can directly replace the Seven Skygods, there's no need for him to participate."
The Ancestor of the Past's eyes flashed. "We'll talk about it when the time comes. I have a candidate in mind. For the time being, we will seal off the First Land of Calamity. Lu Yin is a very shrewd person. Once Tai Hong, Lu Yuan, and the rest come out of seclusion, he might plan a second attack. This is no longer something that Tai Hong can decide."
"This person forced Tai Hong to come out of seclusion, but Tai Hong didn't kill him. It's obvious that he cares a lot about this person. We have to be careful of this person."
"I have a premonition that if we are careless, this Land of Calamity might be destroyed by this person."
…
On the other side, outside the entrance of the Land of Calamity, Lu Yin and the rest brought back three corpses. They were Gan, Chen Le, and Dan Pu.
Lei Tian was severely injured, but First Jian didn't die. This was something that Lu Yin didn't expect.
First Jian was first hit by the Ancient God and then an arrow from the Arrow God. Even though Lei Tian was severely injured, First Jian still managed to dodge with his innate talent.
If Lu Yin hadn't known about First Jian's innate talent, it would have been difficult to kill him.
However, First Jian didn't have it easy either, as his injuries weren't light.
Forefather Tianyi, Big Sis, and the rest were all heavily injured, and they would definitely need to recuperate for a long time after this battle.
With a bang, the Heavenly Sovereign smashed his golden staff into the ground. "You guys go back. I'll stay here."
No one knew what to say. The Heavenly Sovereign's undying nature left them speechless.
Lu Yin said a few words to the group before dispersing. Everyone needed to go back and recuperate. Although they hadn't achieved their goal in this battle, such a battle was still rare in the Six Direction Society's history. If news of this spread back, it would definitely raise everyone's morale.
The Endless Battlefield was now the Six Direction Society's domain, and they had even beaten the Eternals into hiding in the Land of Calamity. These accomplishments were enough to make countless people in the Six Direction Society cheer.
Lu Yin specially thanked the Five Spirit Clans. If not for them, they wouldn't have had enough manpower in this battle.
"Take back the Astral Door," Lu Yin instructed.
He had left a Astral Door that led directly to the Land of Calamity in the Reincarnation Spacetime. His goal was self-evident. As long as the Sole True God dared to make a move, he would dare to provoke a Grand Empyrean. As long as the Six Direction Society was at a disadvantage, he would also dare to provoke a Grand Empyrean. In any case, he had already done it before, and it didn't matter if it happened once or twice.
Lu Yin's backup plan left the Heavenly Sovereign speechless. Although he didn't get along well with the Grand Empyreans and often contradicted them, he had never done such a thing before.
Aside from the Grand Empyreans, Lu Yin didn't know if he had any other backup plans.
Everyone left one by one, and in the end, Lu Yin stayed behind to talk to the Heavenly Sovereign alone. The Heavenly Sovereign had asked him to stay behind.
"Senior, is something the matter?"
Lu Yin asked as he looked at the Heavenly Sovereign. Although the Heavenly Sovereign looked miserable on the outside, Lu Yin knew very well that the Heavenly Sovereign, who had cultivated the "Things Move in the Opposite Direction," was a freak who couldn't be killed at all.
The Heavenly Sovereign praised Lu Yin. "Compared to the Grand Empyreans, the Six Direction Society should be under your control. In the future, if there's a big battle like this, feel free to look for me.
. "Lu Yin smiled." Thank you for your support, senior. "
The Heavenly Sovereign was curious. "How did you know that I would be surrounded and killed?"
Although the Heavenly Sovereign was confident that he could deal with the Violet Emperor and the other two powerhouses, if he hadn't exposed the "Things Move in the Opposite Direction" technique, then Lu Yin would have undoubtedly died in that battle. Before this, no one knew that the Heavenly Sovereign cultivated the "Things Move in the Opposite Direction" technique. It was true that Lu Yin had saved him, and the Heavenly Sovereign would forever remember this favor.
Lu Yin replied, "I accidentally went to the Nine-Headed Bird's nest and discovered it."
The Heavenly Sovereign did not ask any more questions. "I'll remember this favor."
Lu Yin smiled bitterly. "Senior, please don't make fun of me. If I hadn't interfered, then you might have been able to kill all three of them. Even the Violet Emperor wouldn't have been able to escape. Killing a pure energy body isn't easy, and I almost failed."
