Lu Yin's heart sank. The presence of the Aeonian Kingdom meant that this spacetime had either been invaded by the Eternals or was in the process of being invaded.
There were Progenitor Corpse Kings in the Aeonian Kingdom, so Lu Yin's group did not attract its attention and moved further away.
Soon, they saw a great battle taking place on the grassland.
One side was the Eternals, which was not surprising. The other side was a group of cultivators wearing white robes and strange hats. They also held slender wooden sticks in their hands. Lu Yin had never seen these cultivators fight in a way that he had never seen before. They were drawing. That's right, drawing.
These cultivators used the wooden sticks in their hands to draw in the void, drawing star patterns before releasing strange attacks.
None of them fought in close combat or used any battle techniques. They just released fixed powers that were similar to battle techniques. These powers were released by quite a few people, and they were exactly the same, but the power was different.
Lu Yin's group was not in a hurry to leave, and they just watched. He wanted to see what this civilization was like.
To be able to fight against the Eternals and even have a Progenitor Corpse King, this civilization was definitely not weak.
A Progenitor Corpse King fiercely charged forward. Along the way, walls of qi blocked its path, but they were all torn apart by the Progenitor Corpse King. The white-robed cultivators were torn to pieces, and their blood stained the grassland.
A woman appeared and tapped the wooden stick in her hand. "Light Piercing Arrow."
The next moment, the wooden stick instantly drew two connected star patterns in the void, and a beam of light appeared in the void and shot towards the Progenitor Corpse King.
The Progenitor Corpse King punched out. Its fighting style was simple and crude, and it shattered the beam of light. However, another beam of light appeared, and then another beam of light shot towards the Progenitor Corpse King, stopping its charge.
"Yi Tai Wall."
The woman instantly drew five star patterns in the void and connected them together. A wall of qi appeared in front of her and pushed towards the Progenitor Corpse King. The Progenitor Corpse King punched out with both fists, but it could not shatter the wall of qi. As the woman drew another star pattern, the wall of qi suddenly split apart and turned into beams of light that swept out, piercing through the Progenitor Corpse King's body and seriously injuring it.
At that moment, several white-robed cultivators in the surroundings attacked at the same time, all of them using the Light Piercing Arrow.
Countless Light Piercing Arrows drowned out the Progenitor Corpse King.
The ultimate attack, once again, came from the woman's Light Piercing Arrow.
Lu Yin saw a strange battle. There was nothing fancy about it, and every attack was repeated. However, each attack was released in a different way, and it was abnormally effective.
"They've fixed their killing techniques. This civilization must have a super expert." Leng Qing was certain.
Old Chan said, "There are so many strange civilizations in the universe. The Calamity Expedition's irregular attacks are the complete opposite of this civilization."
"The more fixed the attack, the more it represents the destructive power of the civilization," Leng Qing added.
The battle had ended. On the grassland, all the corpse kings had been killed. The white robed cultivators had also suffered heavy casualties. The ground was littered with corpses, and blood had dyed the grass red.
Lu Yin and the rest were not in a hurry to leave, as it was better to be safe than sorry. Mister Mu might not have sent them to this spacetime in search of the white-robed cultivator's civilization, and Lu Yin needed to at least understand them a little before coming into contact with them.
This wasn't the only battlefield. The grassland stretched out endlessly, truly covering this expanse of space-time.
He saw stars in the puddles and meteorites in the rivers. This was a strange space-time, and this grassland seemed to have been formed later on.
The war between this spacetime and the Eternals was very intense. It was like a boundless battlefield, and the woman who had killed the Progenitor realm corpse king was constantly shifting the battlefield.
Apart from the Wall of Aether, Lu Yin and the rest also saw other attacking techniques, but against the Progenitor realm corpse king, the Light Piercing Arrow and the Wall of Aether were the most effective.
On this day, a green-eyed Progenitor realm corpse king appeared. Not only did it have the combat strength of a Progenitor, but it also had innate gifts. It caused the woman to fall into a bitter battle.
The Light Piercing Arrow was ineffective, and the Wall of Aether was easily shattered. The woman had no choice but to use an attack technique that surpassed these two techniques. It was called Senluo's Silencing Ray.
It was as beautiful as an aurora that shone on the grassland, and it also shone on Lu Yin and the rest in the distance.
The woman's expression changed as she looked into the distance with vigilance.
Lu Yin knew that they had been exposed, but in reality, they had not hidden themselves.
"It's time for us to show our sincerity," Lu Yin said.
As he spoke, Leng Qing leaped out and slashed at the Progenitor realm corpse king. The Sky Blade Realm surprised the woman, but it was not too surprising. Her own attacking techniques also had the combat strength of a Progenitor, and the Sky Blade Realm was just another battle situation.
Leng Qing's attack made the woman realize that she was not an enemy.
The aurora that shone on the grassland gathered and stabbed at the corpse king.
Together with Leng Qing's Sky Blade Realm, they finally cut down the Progenitor realm corpse king.
Lu Yin's Heavenly Eye had been watching this battle. Senluo's Silencing Ray?
Its power was not weak, but it was not as strong as the Sky Blade Realm. If not for Leng Qing, this move would not have been enough to kill the Progenitor realm corpse king.
He realized that this civilization had a unique characteristic, and that was that he could not see their strength.
Lu Yin could not see how powerful this woman's attacking techniques were, even with his Heavenly Eye.
He could see some of the powerhouses in the Calamity Expedition, but this woman was as weak as an ordinary person.
"You must be humans from another space-time," the woman said to Leng Qing.
Leng Qing looked at Lu Yin.
Lu Yin walked over. "That's right. We are from another space-time. We have no intention of offending you."
The woman looked at Lu Yin in surprise. "You're in charge here?"
"Is there a problem?" Lu Yin smiled.
The woman sized Lu Yin up. "You're so young."
Lu Yin smiled. "You're also very young. May I ask if your civilization is in charge of this space-time?"
The woman nodded. "My name is Mina, and I'm from a nine-star civilization. We're also the ruler of this space-time. What's your name?"
"Lu Yin."
"Leng Qing."
"Elder Chan."
Mina looked at the three of them. "Why are you helping me?"
Lu Yin said bluntly, "The Eternals are our enemies. Of course, we're helping you."
Mina was not surprised at all. "The Eternals have enemies in many parallel space-times. It's not surprising. But you're very powerful. Even in my nine-star civilization, you would be the top fighters. May I ask why you came to this space-time?"
Lu Yin's expression changed. "We're working together to deal with the Eternals."
"Working together?"
"Yes. We've been looking for a powerful civilization that can deal with the Eternals. Only by working together can we have hope."
Mina shook her head helplessly. "Thank you for helping me, but I'm sorry. My nine-star civilization will not work with you."
"Why?" Lu Yin did not understand.
Mina said, "We don't trust you."
Lu Yin was puzzled. "You don't trust us?"
Elder Chan was also puzzled. "What's there to not trust? We'll work together to deal with the Eternals.
We're just working together. "
Mina shrugged. "The Eternals are very cunning. We don't know if you're an enemy of the Eternals. You should know that the Eternals have planted traitors among us, causing us to suffer heavy losses more than once. The Eternals may seem like emotionless monsters, but they're not stupid."
"Don't underestimate the Eternals."
Lu Yin was puzzled. He often said this, but today, he was being warned by someone else.
"May I ask if you're the master of a nine-star civilization?" Lu Yin asked.
Mina shook her head. "I'm not, but I'm sure that you can't work with us. Don't waste time. I can entertain you and thank you for helping me, but there's no need to say anything else."
Lu Yin said politely, "No matter what, we're guests. It should be fine to pay a visit to the master of a nine-star civilization, right?"
Mina hesitated.
Lu Yin said, "If you don't work together, it's because you have scruples and don't trust us. We might be deliberately approached by the Eternals, but it's more likely that we're the Eternals' enemies. Even if we don't work together, we won't be enemies. Perhaps we can help each other in the future."
"We've never underestimated the Eternals. That was the case in the past, present, and future. The Eternals are extremely powerful."
Mina thought for a moment. "Alright, I can take you to see Mentor Kakaven, but we'll talk about it after clearing this battlefield. I need to deal with the distant Eternal Kingdom first. The threat there is too great."
Elder Chan was surprised. "We've seen that Eternal Kingdom, and there's only one Progenitor realm Corpse King. What threat is there?"
"Progenitor realm Corpse King?
Is that what you call it?
Here, we call the strongest Corpse King a Seven Star Corpse King. That's right, the Eternal Kingdom only has one Seven Star Corpse King, but the Eternal Kingdom itself must be destroyed. Its existence will shake the foundation of humanity. "
Elder Chan looked at Lu Yin in surprise.
Lu Yin looked at Mina. "You mean, a human born in the Eternal Kingdom?"
Mina was surprised for the first time, and she looked at Lu Yin seriously. "So you know about it."
Lu Yin took a deep breath. "Please take me to see the ruler of this spacetime."
To be able to see the essence of the Eternal Kingdom, this nine-star civilization had a deep understanding of the Eternals. To be able to understand the Eternals so well meant that they had fought with them for a long time. This was a powerful civilization.
With the help of Lu Yin and the others, the battlefield was cleared quickly.
In the sky above the Eternal Kingdom, Lu Yin, Mina, and the others stood in the air and looked down.
The Progenitor realm Corpse King roared and rushed into the sky, its pupils turning red in an instant. It raised its hand and waved it, tearing the void apart.
Lu Yin attacked for the first time in this battle. With one punch, he unleashed a hundred punches.
Just as Mina was about to attack, the Progenitor realm Corpse King was killed by Lu Yin's punch. It had no ability to resist and did not even have the chance to struggle.
Mina was shocked. Only now did she see clearly that this very young man was really the strongest of the three. That was why he could make the decision.
Mina knew that she would definitely not be able to take that punch because it was too fast. It was so fast that she did not even have time to use an offensive technique unless she attacked first.
And her body would only die if she faced that punch.
"Mr. Lu Yin, your strength is admirable." Mina exclaimed.
Lu Yin smiled. "I've killed no less than twenty Progenitor realm Corpse Kings like this. It's not difficult."
