Lu Yin said solemnly, "Everyone, this is a matter of life and death for the universe. I don't know how long it will take for the spiritualized universe to invade us, but based on the current situation, there is a huge gap between us and the spiritualized universe.
That's because there's a huge gap between us and the spiritualized universe. They've been cultivating in the same way for countless years. It's equivalent to our space-time spreading the brilliance of the Above Heaven Sect until now. You can imagine how big this gap is.
Everyone's expression changed. They had more or less heard about the spiritualized universe, and Lu Yin had asked someone to tell them so that they could prepare for the crazy research and manufacturing.
"With such a huge gap, if we don't try our best to catch up, we'll be finished. Their goal is to restart this universe and destroy all of us to help themselves. I, Lu Yin, will not let them succeed even if I die. I hope that everyone will do the same and do your best to research it for me."
"A combination of one hundred and eight micro arrays has the destructive power of a Progenitor. I want ten thousand of them."
Lu Yin's exorbitant demand shocked everyone present. Even the cultured and refined Celestial Master Xiu was dumbfounded.
Heavenly Inscriber Li's excitement was strangled.
"Ten thousand?" Chief Engineer Biao Zi was shocked.
Lu Yin was very serious. "The most important thing is the theoretical research, right?
As long as we can research it, mass production should be very fast. "
If not for Lu Yin's identity, Chief Engineer Biao Zi would have cursed out loud.
Chairman Zhi coughed a few times. "Master Lu, I don't know much about the research of one hundred and eight micro arrays, but to be able to support this level of micro arrays, the universal armor must be very strong. It must be so strong that it surpasses all the materials we have researched before. This is not easy to research and manufacture."
Lu Yin nodded. "That's why I will ask the Limitless Empire to cooperate with you. I will give them the task of manufacturing the mecha. The materials used to make the mecha are quite strong. You should have heard of them before."
Chairman Zhi's eyes lit up. Of course, they had heard of them before.
When the Limitless Empire had invaded the Genesis Space, the Heavenly Sect had captured a mecha to study. They had discovered that the Limitless Empire was too extravagant. The materials used to make the mecha were quite precious.
The Limitless Empire had invaded various parallel universes for many years, and no one knew how many materials they had accumulated.
"Not only that, but I will also ask the Heavenly Sect to lead the Progenitors to find and buy the materials in various parallel universes. Even if I have to snatch them, I will snatch them back. Ten, a hundred, a thousand parallel universes, endless resources. I don't believe that I can't make ten thousand micro array weapons."
Everyone was stirred up and became excited.
This was an alliance of many parallel universes in the entire universe. No one knew how many materials would be brought. Even Zhi Dong could not calculate because the materials in each parallel universe were different.
If the Five Spirit Races didn't have a time flow that was a hundred times faster, they would have to spend a terrifying amount of time researching. It would take at least a thousand years or even ten thousand years. However, with a time flow that was a hundred times faster, they dared to give it a try.
"Oh, that's right. I might even bring you guys to the mirage domain midway, where time is stagnant. I hope that you guys will be able to research it. If I have ten thousand microarray weapons, I'll be able to reach the Progenitor realm's destructive power, and I'll be able to blast the spiritualized universe to the point that it can't even tell north from south."
The spiritualized universe was powerful, and it had ten foundational sequences and eighty-eight array techniques. In addition, there were also powerhouses and the most terrifying Grass Grandmaster at the Eternal Realm. But so what? Lu Yin wanted to gather all the resources of the Tian Yuan Universe in a decisive battle against the spiritualized universe.
This was completely different from the battle against the Eternals.
The battle with the Eternals would end the Eternals.
As for the spiritualized universe, if he did not take care of their living forces, even if he managed to repel their attacks once or twice, there would be a third, fourth, fifth, and so on and so forth.
Spirit Rise and Spirit Molt were indeed good at nurturing talents and shortening their cultivation speed.
This was a clash between civilizations, and it was far from the battle against the Eternals.
This would be a clash between inhumane civilizations. There would be no winner, and Lu Yin did not want to be the loser.
It all depended on his many years of experience in the Genesis Space and how much power he could bring out.
Ignoring the shocked crowd, Lu Yin went to the Limitless Empire.
The Limitless Empire was very important in this battle, not because of their combat strength, but because of their support for energy source research and microarray weapons research. They were of the utmost importance, far surpassing the Technocracy.
Lu Yin had given the Limitless Empire two tasks. The first was to use the list given by the Above Heaven Sect to create the materials that were from the Limitless Empire. The second was for the Limitless Empire to create mechas themselves.
"The Limitless Empire currently has seventeen Tenth Ring mechas, ten Eleventh Ring mechas, and six Twelfth Ring mechas," the current Emperor Shang, Shang Tianzong, respectfully replied.
Shang Cheng, Shang Anan, and the director of the Institute of Environmental Energy Research were also present. They called him Elder Huan, and he had always been there. After so many years, no one remembered his real name. Everyone either called him Old Mister or Elder Huan.
"Not enough, far from enough." Lu Yin's gaze swept over them and he gave a task. "Fifty Tenth Ring mechas."
Shang Tianzong and the others were stunned. Fifty?
Even the Limitless Empire didn't have that many at their peak.
"Twenty Eleventh Ring mechas."
"As for Twelfth Ring mechas, at least double that. Twelve."
"Master Lu, how is that possible?" Shang Tianzong hurriedly asked.
To the side, Shang Cheng heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had not become Emperor Shang.
Lu Yin looked at Shang Tianzong. "I don't want to say too much. You all know about the spiritualization of the universe. If we lose, the entire universe will be destroyed. I don't care what method you use. Even if you give me your throne to purify the metal, you have to meet my requirements."
Shang Tianzong's expression turned ugly, but he didn't dare reply. He looked to Elder Huan for help.
Lu Yin said, "Now that all the resources of the parallel universes have been gathered, this will be the war of the entire universe. No mistakes are allowed. Don't think that I'm asking too much of you. Go ask Zijing, Zhi Dong, and the others, and they'll know that I've already been very lenient with the Limitless Empire." He then looked to Elder Huan. "Can you research the thirteen-ringed energy?"
"No." Elder Huan immediately replied.
Lu Yin sighed. Twelfth Ring energy was already at the level of Sequence Laws, and thirteen-ringed energy was a qualitative change that could reach the Primordial Realm. If they could research it, his confidence in this war would soar to an unprecedented level. Unfortunately, qualitative changes were not so easy to research.
"Master Lu, if we want to research the thirteen-ringed energy, we lack experimental data. We need at least one or two Thirteen-Ringed experts to cooperate with us. Even if the Above Heaven Sect can do this, I can't guarantee that we'll be able to research it."
"Right now, in order to deal with this war, the best way is to temporarily put aside research on thirteen-ringed energy. I'll focus on mecha production and material purification. The efficiency will definitely increase."
Lu Yin was surprised. "Elder Huan, you're willing to temporarily put aside research on thirteen-ringed energy?"
Shang Tianzong, Shang Cheng, and the others were all shocked.
Everyone knew that Elder Huan was obsessed with research on thirteen-ringed energy. Killing him was easy, but making him give up on research was difficult. Lu Yin had never thought of asking Elder Huan to cooperate with him in mecha production, but he had never expected him to bring it up himself.
Elder Huan sighed. "If the universe doesn't exist, where will thirteen-ringed energy come from?"
"Although I desire to research thirteen-ringed energy, the prerequisite is that the Limitless Empire still exists. Master Lu, I only have one request."
"Speak," Lu Yin said.
Elder Huan's eyes burned with passion. "Capture a few spiritualized thirteen-ringed experts for me to research."
Lu Yin's lips curled up, and he met Elder Huan's gaze. "Alright."
Elder Huan smiled.
Lu Yin smiled as well.
Although they were confused about the future war, as long as everyone worked together, there was a chance of victory.
After leaving the Limitless Empire, Lu Yin went to where Ye Jue was. Now that Ye Jue could not escape, where could he go?
Furthermore, he had to face a spiritualized universe war. If he failed, the universe would restart, and he would have nowhere to run.
Lu Yin gave him ten Progenitor corpses, all of which belonged to human traitors who had defected to the Eternals. Most Progenitor corpses could not be left behind after death, so finding ten was already quite good.
Lu Yin's goal for giving them to Ye Jue was very simple: symbiosis to produce ten Progenitors.
Ye Jue naturally agreed, and he promised that he would produce as many as Lu Yin could find.
Lu Yin also ordered the Above Heaven Sect to search in secret, as this was not something that could be discussed openly.
He also did not announce the war with the spiritualized universe to the public, or else it would cause panic.
Letting everyone know about this would not be of any help, and it would only drag them down.
Lu Yin wanted everyone to reach the Progenitor realm, and he did not even care about Half-Progenitors. This was because he knew very well that in a war with the spiritualized universe, anyone below the Progenitor realm would be ants.
The next mission was the Expedition of Calamity.
When he arrived at the Expedition of Calamity, Lu Yin was not in a hurry to give out missions. Instead, he wanted to see the madman who had caused the Expedition of Calamity to become like this, Echa.
Echa was a Primordial Realm powerhouse, a mad Primordial Realm powerhouse.
Lu Yin had mentioned this to Mister Mu before, and Mister Mu had told him that there was a problem with Echa's breakthrough to the Primordial Realm. All of his power was sealed within his body, and although it was constantly growing stronger, it would explode. He had no choice but to release his power by biting others. This was also the origin of the Expedition of Calamity.
Lu Yin wanted to see if there was any way to help Echa.
If he could awaken Echa, there would be another Primordial Realm powerhouse. Of course, the possibility of this was not high, or Mister Mu would have done it long ago.
Mister Mu had once said that helping Echa recover was more difficult than helping a Progenitor break through to the Primordial Realm.
Not long after, Lu Yin met Echa with Disaster leading the way.
He had seen him once before, and this time, he had a different feeling.
"Open it," Lu Yin said.
Disaster was stunned. "Master Lu, you want to go in?"
Lu Yin nodded.
Disaster hesitated. "Echa has gone mad, and he can only release his power through his instincts. Once we enter, we might meet with misfortune. Many of our clan members have died at his hands."
Lu Yin said, "It's fine."
Disaster did not try to persuade him any further. He had seen Lu Yin's strength. He had stomped down on the Ancient Thunder Locust, and the terror of that was deeply rooted in everyone's hearts. Even a Primordial Realm powerhouse might not be his opponent, let alone a mad Echa.
The cage that trapped Echa was not some sturdy one, and it could be destroyed easily.
The one who had truly trapped Echa was himself.
