In the Primordial Space, Lu Yin looked at the card in front of him. It belonged to Great Elder Shan Gu and was called Heavenly King.
The card was like a second life for the Lost Clan. The fact that Great Elder Dan Gu was willing to give the card to Lu Yin meant that he had absolute trust in Lu Yin.
Lu Yin had previously hesitated on whether or not he should help Grand Elder Shan Gu upgrade his card's grade, but he had put it aside. Now, he could only do this.
It didn't matter if the butterflies helped the Eternals or not. What mattered was that the Eternals had a way to get the butterflies to help them.
The Lost Clan was just the beginning. As the Eternals grew weaker, they would only become more and more resourceful.
However, there were only so many powerhouses in this universe, and Lu Yin did not believe that the Eternals would be able to hold on.
Raising his hand, Zhang Xuan took out the die. Flicking his finger, he watched as the die slowly spun before finally stopping at 3.
Lu Yin's eyes lit up; it was a good sign.
He placed the Heavenly King Card on the table and then began to crazily toss out star essence.
Upgrading Eternal Darkness had cost Lu Yin a hundred trillion star essence, which was a rather exaggerated number. Upgrading a Heavenly Emperor Card would not be a small amount either.
A hundred trillion! This was a sum that Lu Yin had gone to great lengths to obtain, and he had never expected to use it all up in such a short period of time.
No, he had to think of a way to obtain more star essence. It was impossible for him to do so in the Primordial Space, so he would have to use the Reincarnation Space-Time.
Although their powers were opposite, they could still be used.
As the star essence continued to be consumed, the Heavenly Emperor Card also continued to drop until it was completely gone. Just like the Perpetual Darkness Card, it had been reduced to a hundred trillion star essence.
He reached out and picked up the Heavenly King Card.
In an instant, the same scene happened. In the lost time and space, the clansmen were surprised to find that their cards were inexplicably facing a direction, as if they were worshipping.
Great Elder Dan Gu was currently in the Above Heaven Sect, and he similarly noticed this matter. He looked towards the rear mountains.
He finally understood. So that was how it was. It wasn't an ancient card that appeared before, but rather eternal darkness.
Lu Yin had upgraded Eternal Darkness to the level of an ancient card, which was why such a phenomenon had occurred. Now, the Heavenly King Card had definitely succeeded.
He didn't know how Lu Yin had done it, but it was too miraculous. This was something that not even the clan's peak had been able to accomplish, and how long had it been since then?
For a moment, Great Elder Gu felt as if Lu Yin's entire body was shrouded in a dense fog, making him seem unfathomable.
While waiting anxiously, Great Elder Dan Gu received the Heavenly King Card.
Looking at the Heavenly King Card again, the familiar feeling of blood connection was still there, but there was an additional sense of unfamiliarity. It was as though there was a barrier between him and the card.
This was the power of the ancient card. He was still a Progenitor and had not reached the Primordial realm, so it would not be easy for him to use the ancient card.
"Head Elder, let's give it a try. It would be best if we can block the butterfly, but if we can't, then we'll think of something else," Lu Yin said.
Lu Yuan looked at the card curiously and then at Lu Yin. He recalled the One True God's words.
Perhaps only Turbid Treasures had such a miraculous ability.
Not long after, Great Elder Dan Gu returned to the Lost Clan. He was somewhat excited because he saw another path.
Since Lu Yin could upgrade his card to the level of an ancient card, could he do it again?
Lu Yin didn't give this answer, but he didn't reject it either.
This allowed Great Elder Dan Gu to see a ray of hope. It was because the Lost Clan, which was once at their peak, had existed for a long time.
The ancient card was precisely the card that had revealed a corner and dealt a blow to that existence. If there was another card like that, it might not be impossible to resist.
This was just the Lost Clan, and there were various civilizations in this spacetime as well. With Lu Yin's ability, what could he not do?
For a moment, Great Elder Dan Gu looked at Lu Yin in a different light.
Not long after Great Elder Dan Gu returned to the Lost Clan, the butterfly came again. This time, Lu Yuan did not appear, and Lu Yin went instead. He wanted to see how Great Elder Dan Gu would block the butterfly.
"Tianen, if you want to throw our clan out, then come and try. No one will help us, but we won't let you do whatever you want to us." Great Elder Dan Gu looked at the butterfly, and his tone was completely different from before. This time, it was filled with hope.
The butterfly flapped its wings. "Daolord Lu, what's the attitude of your Above Heaven Sect?
Please don't make things difficult for me. "
Lu Yin raised his brows. "I won't make things difficult for you. Do as you please."
"Thank you. You're someone who understands the big picture." The butterfly was grateful, and its voice was very pleasant.
Lu Yin's lips curled up. "I also thank you for helping the Everlasting Clan find trouble with me. Also, call me Seventh Bro."
"I didn't help the Everlasting Clan. I owe the Everlasting Clan a favor, and you humans owe me as well. My attitude towards you is the same."
Lu Yin asked, "What about Fengbo?
Did you banish him? "
"The Everlasting Clan said that Fengbo is dead, and that he died at your hands."
Lu Yin mocked, "How laughable. Do you believe that yourself?
A dignified powerhouse of the Sequence Laws died at the hands of a Half-Progenitor like me. Moreover, I just said that Fengbo doesn't belong to this universe, and the Everlasting Clan says that Fengbo is dead. You only target the Lost Clan, but why don't I see you targeting the Everlasting Clan? "
"I'm really sorry. I'll definitely give you humans an explanation for Fengbo's death. Now, please deal with the Lost Clan first."
According to Mister Mu, the Lost Clan had to deal with Tianen alone if they did not want the Protectors of the Four Directions to act. Regardless of whether they could stop them or not, the Protectors of the Four Directions would not act against the Above Heaven Sect. Moreover, if the opponent was only the Lost Clan, only one of the Protectors of the Four Directions would act.
At this moment, the butterfly's gaze was fixed on Dan Gu. In the Lost Clan, only Dan Gu was worthy of her attention.
Aside from Dan Gu, the other Ancestors of the Lost Clan, including Dan Zheng and Dan Yan, were not present. If Dan Gu could not stop them, then they could not.
"You're called Dan Gu, right?" The butterfly spoke gently.
Great Elder Dan Gu looked at the butterfly. "My Lost Clan does not belong to this universe, but after being here for so many years, we've long regarded this universe as our home. We fought against the Everlasting Clan together and formed a deep friendship. Why can't you accept my clan?"
"Your fate is determined by the heavens. Since your Lost Clan does not belong to this universe, you should not stay here. Leave. I can show you the way out."
The butterfly fluttered her wings. This was her respect for the Lost Clan. The Lost Clan was not weak, especially with the Above Heaven Sect nearby. She would not go too far.
Great Elder Dan Gu's eyes flashed. "Is it the way back to our home?"
The butterfly was helpless. "I'm sorry. I don't know where your home is, so I can't show you the way. I can only show you the way out of this universe."
"You've pointed out the direction. Where is the end? What kind of starry sky awaits us? Do you know?" Great Elder Dan Gu asked.
The butterfly did not answer. Her meaning was clear.
It was simple; she did not know either.
Her duty was to eliminate creatures that did not belong to this universe, not to help them find a way back. As for whether they lived or died after leaving this universe, it was not within the Guardians' consideration.
Lu Yin suddenly thought of Mister Mu. Mister Mu clearly did not belong to this universe, which meant that the Everlasting Clan was at a disadvantage. Since he had mentioned the Lost Clan, he naturally would not forget about Mister Mu.
When he thought of this, Lu Yin looked at the butterfly and his eyes flashed with killing intent. The Guardians were definitely enemies.
Some people were awe-inspiring righteous and separated public from private interests, but others were protective of their own shortcomings. Lu Yin was obviously the latter. He would give a certain degree of fairness to strangers and protect their dignity, but he would protect the people around him even more. Mister Mu was obviously the closest to him, as he was his master. Regardless of whether the Guardians were helping the Everlasting Clan or not, even if they were just fulfilling their duties, Lu Yin would not allow them to attack Mister Mu.
Furthermore, it seemed that the Guardians were more inclined to side with the Everlasting Clan. The butterfly had made it sound good, saying that they would give an explanation to the humans. But how?
It was just an excuse to attack the Lost Clan.
Elder Shan Gu sighed. "It looks like you don't care about us. No matter what, we're guests from afar. Is there no way for us to stay?"
The butterfly's voice was as gentle as ever. "I've already said what I need to say. If you insist on staying, I can only take action. I'm truly sorry. Daolord Lu, let me remind you that there are four existences like me. If you humans insist on protecting this clan, we might become your opponents."
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed. "Are you threatening me?"
"No, it's a reminder, a kind reminder. I really don't want to become your enemy. Sorry."
With that, the butterfly flapped its wings, and the flowing light was beautiful. It immediately replaced the Lost Clan's starry sky, causing it to become multicolored without any prior signs.
Lu Yin's expression changed. This was the power of a Primordial realm expert. There were no signs of them attacking, but they could instantly change the Lost Clan's starry sky.
A Primordial realm expert might not necessarily be much more powerful than a Progenitor, but they had an advantage, which was that they could not get close to their opponents.
This was why Sequence Law Realm experts would directly lower their heads before a Primordial realm expert.
When the light flowed, the Lost Clan's starry sky came to a standstill. It was like a beautiful painting that enveloped the entire Lost Clan, making it impossible for anyone to move.
Lu Yin could move, but the butterfly did not attack him. He could not move either.
Perhaps the butterfly did not attack him because it did not give him a reason to attack, or perhaps it was giving him an opportunity to attack.
However, Lu Yin did not need to do anything. Even Ancestor Lu Yuan had not come.
The Heavenly Emperor Card hovered above grand elder Shan Gu's head. Three statues stood there vaguely. Their appearances could not be seen clearly, but they possessed mountainous presences that crushed the starry sky and faced the butterfly directly.
When the butterfly's light came into contact with the three statues, it actually collapsed, unable to approach them.
Lu Yin's eyes widened. The light caused the starry sky to flow, but it was unable to approach grand elder Shan Gu. What did the three statues represent?
They definitely did not possess such power in the past. Had they changed after being upgraded to Ancient Cards?
The butterfly was surprised. "Is this the power of a Primordial realm expert?
How can you be a Primordial realm expert? "
Grand elder Shan Gu looked at the butterfly calmly. "Why not?
If it weren't for that, how could my clan have come to this universe? "
The butterfly flapped its wings less frequently, and the surrounding starry sky returned to normal. The light dissipated, and it was very beautiful.
