It wasn't that Lu Yin couldn't do it. With his status in the Six Paths Society, he could do much more than this if he wanted to. However, no one in the Six Paths Society would be so extravagant.
He was stepping on a dark yellow metal, which was similar to the value of gold on Earth. This place reminded him of the Food Paradise, but while the Food Paradise was about delicacies, this place was about luxury.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Yin stayed on the fort for three days. During these three days, he gradually understood this place.
This fort was called the Calamity Expedition, and its name was similar to the Calamity Domain. If not for the fact that there were no Corpse Kings here, Lu Yin would have thought that this place belonged to the Eternals.
However, this Calamity Expedition didn't know about the Eternals.
This surprised Lu Yin, as Mister Mu knew about the Eternals. How had Mister Mu found this place?
Only Mister Mu could answer this question.
Lu Yin only knew that no one in this civilization cultivated, but their strength was extremely high.
This was what puzzled him the most.
For the next half a month, he stayed on the fortress and observed this civilization. The fortress was divided into levels from bottom to top. He went all the way up and came to a position near the top. At this position, the people here had destructive power at the level of a Half-Progenitor. However, no one cultivated.
It was impossible for them not to cultivate, unless this fort had a parallel spacetime flow that was different and everyone cultivated there.
However, this shouldn't be the case. There were thousands of people in the fort, but no one cultivated any battle techniques, nor did anyone talk about battle techniques. The people here only talked about destruction, destroying planets, destroying the land, destroying space, and destroying everything in sight. It was as if they only knew how to destroy, and they were filled with hostility.
There was also something else: the people here had painted their arms with different colors. This was something Lu Yin couldn't understand, as different colors represented different levels of destructive power.
This Calamity Expedition gave Lu Yin a feeling that he couldn't understand, so he decided to pay a formal visit.
Of course, he couldn't do it alone, as he still didn't know how strong this civilization was. He opened a Stargate far away from the Calamity Expedition and brought Leng Qing and Elder Chan closer.
"Warning, forbidden area ahead. Retreat immediately."
"Warning, forbidden area ahead. Retreat immediately."
Elder Chan stepped forward and looked at the fort. "I accidentally came to this spacetime and would like to invite Master to meet me."
His voice penetrated the starry sky and swept past the fortress, attracting the attention of many people in the fortress.
At the top level of the fortress, in an extremely luxurious palace, dozens of handsome men were dancing. All of them were looking at a woman lying on a high platform with seductive gazes. The woman was beautiful, and her eyes were blurred. She was intoxicated by the song and dance.
Elder Chan's voice rang out, disrupting the rhythm of the song and dance. The woman frowned and looked past the fortress at Elder Chan.
"Hmph, I won't see him."
Soon, a man walked out of the fortress and came before Elder Chan. He sized up Elder Chan and said, "Our patriarch said that he would not see you."
Elder Chan said politely, "Please report to your noble leader that we have no intention of intruding into this space-time. We should pay a visit to the owner of this space-time."
The man was dissatisfied. "What does it have to do with us whether you come or not? I said I won't see you, so I won't see you. Let's go."
With that, the man turned around and left.
Old Zen felt helpless. He had never encountered such a person before. No matter what, he was still a Progenitor. His greeting just now was enough to show his strength, but the owner of this place actually refused to meet him. Did he not care about an Progenitor at all?
Or did he not care about this space-time?
Lu Yin stepped forward, "Please wait a moment."
The man turned around and glared at Lu Yin, "Brat, don't you understand human speech?
I won't see you. Scram. "
Lu Yin looked at the man, "Have you heard of Mister Mu?"
The man's expression changed, and he looked at Lu Yin in shock, "You know Mister Mu?"
Seeing the man's attitude, Lu Yin understood. As expected, Mister Mu had given him the Astral Door, which was a space-time that he had already explored. His goal was to allow Lu Yin to contact the civilizations of these space-times.
The Eternals had six Zones of Calamity, and they had scattered them across parallel space-times to destroy the human race.
"That's my master," Lu Yin said.
The man's expression softened, and he stepped forward and said in a gentler tone, "My apologies. I did not know that you were Mister Mu's disciple. Then, who are these two?"
Lu Yin introduced them, "They are my seniors. Actually, it was not by accident that they came to this space-time. It was Mister Mu who pointed them in the right direction."
The man nodded, "Since Mister Mu introduced you, follow me. I'll take you directly to the patriarch."
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."
"I'm Lu Yin."
"I'm Calamity, and our patriarch is called Er Ji. She's my mother. This way, please."
With Calamity leading the way, Lu Yin and the other two climbed to the top of the fortress and met Er Ji, the owner of this Calamity Expedition.
Er Ji watched Calamity bring Lu Yin and the others in and frowned, "What's the meaning of this?
Didn't you say that you didn't want to see us? "
Er Ji said with difficulty, "Brother Lu Yin is Mister Mu's disciple. This trip was also guided by Mister Mu."
Er Ji was shocked, "Mister Mu's disciple."
She waved her hand to dismiss the dancers, and her aura changed from enchanting to noble and dignified. This was the leader of a clan.
Lu Yin looked at Er Ji, "Senior, are you the patriarch here?"
Er Ji nodded and made an inviting gesture, "Have a seat. Since you're Mister Mu's disciple, there's no need to be courteous. We're all family."
Lu Yin did not expect Mister Mu's token to be so useful. This Calamity Expedition was not a benevolent group, and they were filled with the desire to destroy. Their words were not polite, and they did not even care about Progenitors. However, they were polite to Mister Mu.
"Patriarch Er Ji, although I was guided here by Master, I do not know much about this place. Can you give me a brief introduction?" Lu Yin asked directly.
Er Ji looked at Calamity.
Calamity said, "We are called the Calamity Expedition here. The entire fortress belongs to our clan …"
With Calamity's introduction, Lu Yin finally understood the Calamity Expedition. He did not hide anything, and Lu Yin also knew why the people of the Calamity Expedition did not cultivate.
It was because there was a lunatic here, and he was the patriarch of this clan. They did not know what realm this lunatic was at exactly.
This lunatic patriarch was suppressed at the bottom of the Calamity Expedition, and he was extremely powerful. However, due to a mistake in his cultivation, he had gone mad. Not only was his mind unclear, but he could not even release his strength. It was trapped in his body, or more accurately, in his blood.
The Lunatic Patriarch's strength was constantly increasing in his blood, and only by letting his blood flow out could he alleviate the sudden increase in strength. Otherwise, his body would definitely explode.
The meaning of the existence of the Calamity Expedition was to allow the Lunatic Patriarch to dilute his blood. In other words, he would pour his blood into the bodies of the Calamity Expedition members, and they would absorb different types of blood according to their endurance. Therefore, the people here did not need to cultivate, and their strength came from madness.
The Lunatic Patriarch's strength also had to come from the Lunatic Patriarch, or else the Lunatic Patriarch would definitely explode and die.
The people here received the Lunatic Patriarch's blood from the moment they were born, and the amount of blood they received gradually increased over time.
The people who received the Lunatic Patriarch's blood had to constantly release their strength, or else the strength that they did not cultivate would cause them to explode. This was the reason why the Calamity Expedition members were so destructive. They did not want to destroy, but rather, they had to release their strength.
This was also part of their cultivation. Every time they received the Lunatic Patriarch's blood, the amount they could withstand would increase the next time.
Regardless of whether it was space, land, planets, or anything else, the Calamity Expedition members would destroy any parallel space-time they found until the entire parallel space-time was destroyed.
The Calamity Expedition members had no enemies, and it could be said that they were all enemies. This was because they destroyed everything without any reason. Of course, destruction was not the same as killing, as they only destroyed and did not kill.
This was completely different from the Limitless Empire.
The Limitless Empire was for resources, while the Calamity Expedition was for survival.
It was also because of this that the people of the Calamity Expedition enjoyed themselves all year round, as their lifespans were not very long. While the Lunatic Patriarch's blood could allow them to reach the Progenitor realm and even have the destructive power of a Sequence Law, their lifespans were not even comparable to Enlighters.
Even Ergie was only 200 years old.
If Lu Yin took Lu Xiaoxuan's age into account, then he was about the same age as her. If he took into account the time spent cultivating in different space-time zones, then he was old enough to be Ergie's grandfather.
Short lifespans, explosive strength, and an unrestrained desire to destroy formed a unique civilization like the Calamity Expedition.
No one had expected that the Calamity Expedition, which even Progenitors could ignore, would have such a short lifespan.
"It doesn't matter. We're already used to it. Enjoying ourselves is also part of life." Ergie was very open-minded.
The Calamity Expedition members did not look too good. They had destroyed many parallel space-time zones and had seen too many civilizations. Many of them had cultivators who could live for thousands of years, tens of thousands of years, or even longer. The more they came into contact with these civilizations, the more unbalanced they felt.
This was like a normal person who had obtained billions of dollars but only had ten days to live. What would this person do in these ten days?
Elder Chan praised, "Leader, you're broad-minded. I'm impressed."
Ergie looked down, "It's quite broad-minded."
Elder Chan coughed and choked on his words.
Lu Yin was speechless.
Ergie laughed, "It's been a long time since I've chatted with an outsider. To us, chatting with outsiders is a waste of life. But I think you guys are quite pleasing to the eye. Let's get straight to the point. You're Lu Yin, right? What's your purpose here?"
Lu Yin's expression changed, "Have you heard of the Everlasting Race?"
Ergie and Calamity looked at each other, "I've heard of them but never encountered them."
"It's a pity." Calamity said.
Lu Yin was puzzled, "A pity?"
Ergie said, "Of course it's a pity. With such destructive power, we need to find a decent opponent. We've seen a few civilizations destroyed by the Everlasting Race. We've always wanted to meet them but never had the chance."
"Can you imagine how I felt when I unleashed my power on the sky and earth where there were no enemies?
I can't just kill randomly. "
Leng Qing's eyes lit up. This sentence made her see the Calamity Expedition in a new light.
A race that was not blinded by power was worthy of respect.
