The stone door was very difficult to open, as it was a tributary of the River of Time. During the battle between the Tian Yuan Universe and the spiritualized universe outside the stone door, Lu Yin had paid special attention to it. There was indeed something similar to a door bolt outside the stone door. He had wanted to study it, but he had forgotten about it. Even with his current strength, he could not open it from the inside.
The only way to deal with Tianci was to enter a dream.
This was a reminder from Meng Sang. There was no stone door in the dream.
Lu Yin left the Above the Sky Sect and headed towards the Sixth Mainland's Dreammanor. The Dreamheart Sutra also required karma to be replenished, so he could kill two birds with one stone.
At the same time, the stone gate at the border of the Tianyuan Universe extended into the distance. It was only an inch away. Outside the stone gate, Tianci sat cross-legged, waiting for the spiritualized universe to attack.
The closer it was to the square inch, the darker it became.
Along the way, Meng Sang was making a springboard. She had lost thirty-seven years of memories and could not remember invading the Tian Yuan Universe. She should have gone back in time, but because she was controlled by the only true god, she avoided the reversal of time and numbly headed toward the spiritualized universe.
Further in the distance, there was a gigantic celestial body. It was like a springboard magnified billions of times, stirring up the winds and clouds of the universe.
Outside the gangplank, a battleship slowly sailed away. On the battleship were the President, Bao Qi, Palace Mistress Yao, and the others.
"Where did Meng Sang go?" The president asked curiously.
Palace Master Yao was puzzled. "I didn't see him. He should be on the battleship."
The president frowned. That was impossible. He didn't even see Meng Sang leave. She couldn't have left without a sound.
Furthermore, this battle concerned the reopening of the Tian Yuan Universe. It was even more impossible for Meng Sang to retreat.
At this moment, the battleship suddenly stopped.
The president's expression changed, and he said respectfully, "Yu Sang Tian."
"Not going to the Tian Yuan Universe?"
"Yes, Yu Sang Tian."
"Reporting to Yu Sang Tian, Mengsang has disappeared. No one knows where she went."
"Is there another mission?
Understood. Return to the spiritualized universe immediately and follow Yu Sang Tian's orders. "
Soon, the battleship changed direction and headed toward the spiritualized universe.
From this huge celestial body to the spiritualized universe, there were small springboards on the way. They were all created by the spiritualized universe's Sang Tian.
The true springboard could not be casually used to prevent being monitored by unknown civilizations.
Bao Qi walked out. "What's going on?
Why did you turn around? "
The president was also puzzled. "Yu Sang Tian's order. Return to the spiritualized universe."
"What?
Why would Yu Sang Tian give such an order?
Wasn't it his order to go to the Tian Yuan Cosmos? "Bao Qi was dissatisfied.
Even though Yu Sang Tian was in charge of the spiritualized universe, they were still Sang Tian. This matter was related to their plan to invade the Tian Yuan Universe. How could they cancel it just like that? "Go back and gather the other Sang Tian and discuss it with Yu Sang Tian."
No matter how dissatisfied they were, they couldn't disobey Yu Sang Tian's orders at this moment.
At this moment, Yu Sang Tian was also puzzled. "How did Mengsang disappear?
Could it be that he had avoided the reversal of time?
I couldn't even avoid it. "
He looked in the direction of the Tian Yuan Universe.
Although he couldn't avoid the time reversal, he managed to preserve his memories.
Lu Yin had grasped the laws of karma, and he knew of this. He had wanted to attack the Tian Yuan Cosmos again, but after some thought, he decided against it.
The Tian Yuan Universe was not weak, and Lu Yin had relied on a sneak attack to easily deal with the powerhouses from Primeval City. The Tian Yuan Universe would definitely be prepared, and if he went there again, he might not be able to do anything to Lu Yin.
He might as well wait for him to come knocking on his door.
His greatest mistake was that he had avoided the reversal of time. The karma that needed to be repaired would have consigned him to eternal damnation.
He would soon come to the spiritualized universe.
…
A giant stone door towered in space.
Lu Yin stood beside it with his hands behind his back. He had been standing there for ten days. During this time, he had continuously deduced the Dreamheart Sutra from the tributary of the River of Time, replenishing the karma of the Dreamheart Sutra. At the same time, he had also thought of a way to drag Tianci over.
As long as Tianci was behind the stone door.
Lu Yuan and the others were further away. Originally, only Lu Yuan had been guarding the stone door, but Lu Yin had been afraid that something unexpected would happen, so he had asked Hongyan, Chu Yi, and the others to accompany Lu Yuan. Because of the tributary of the River of Time, the spiritualized universe had attacked, and Lu Yuan hadn't been able to escape. If Lu Yin and the others hadn't arrived in time, he would have been killed by the spiritualized universe.
He slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, all he saw was an illusion. This was the world of the Dreamheart Sutra.
Lu Yin had already deduced the Dreamheart Sutra to the point where he could force someone into a dream without needing them to fall asleep.
Otherwise, waiting for someone to fall asleep would be extremely foolish.
Mengsang could temporarily force a progenitor into a dream, even if the progenitor saw through it.
In the tributary of the River of Time, Crazy Principal Shaochen had died because he had been forced into a dream.
Behind the stone door, Tianci had been waiting for reinforcements from the spiritualized universe. Soon, soon. Soon, the Tianyuan Universe would be reactivated.
Eh?
Was that a battleship?
Tianci was delighted. So soon?
He had thought that he would have to wait a little longer. This was great.
As the battleship approached, he saw the president, Palace Empress Yao, and Bao Qi. His lips curled up in a cruel smile. Were there two Sang Tian?
Not necessarily, but there might be more. It was time for the stone door to open.
"Open the door!" Bao Qi shouted.
Tianci turned around and pressed his hand against the stone door. He exerted force, and the stone door opened with a bang.
What welcomed him was a terrifying palm strike from Lu Yin that struck Tianci's heart and pierced through his body. The void rippled, and at the same time, the color of blood spread out.
Tianci stared blankly at Lu Yin, who was so close to him. How could this be?
"I guessed that you were behind the stone door, but I didn't expect you to be so close," Lu Yin said.
If he had known earlier that Tianci was so close to the stone door, he would not have needed to think for ten days. He could have just entered the dreamland.
It was not easy to convince someone to enter a dreamland, especially a Primordial Realm powerhouse.
Meng Sang had seen through the Primogenitor's dreamland, and Lu Yin had done the same for Tianci. He was far inferior to Meng Sang in this aspect, and his only advantage was his foresight of the spiritualized universe. He had allowed Tianci to see the president, Bao Qi, and the others without any suspicions.
However, if Tianci had been too far away from the stone door and the battleship had approached, Lu Yin would have known that the battleship was fake. Thus, Lu Yin's original plan had been to directly attack Tianci in the dream and heavily injure him.
However, he had not expected Tianci to be so close to the stone door. He had been so eager for the spiritualized universe's invasion that he had opened the door without waiting for the battleship to approach. Even Lu Yin had been caught off guard.
It was Lu Yin's fault for allowing the president, Bao Qi, and the others to appear. How could Tianci have known that Lu Yin knew these people?
Although Tianci's opening of the door had caught Lu Yin off guard, it did not matter. One palm strike was enough to heavily injure Tianci.
This was the limit of the Tian Yuan Universe's lifeforms, and even the spiritualized universe's Sang Tian feared it. If it struck Tianci without any protection, it would cripple half of his strength.
Tianci gritted his teeth as blood dripped from the corner of his mouth. A sword suddenly appeared, and he stabbed at Lu Yin with Azure Edge, Limitless.
It was only a meter away, and once Lu Yin saw through it, he would be no threat at all.
Lu Yin grabbed Tianci's arm, and no matter how Tianci struggled, he could not escape.
Tianci had the innate gift of Celestial Perspective, which allowed him to see through all attacks and cultivation methods. He also had the Stacking Sequence, which was ranked thirteenth out of the eighty-eight Sequence Techniques of the spiritualized universe. He also had a spiritualized weapon, Limitless. He was also a Primordial Realm expert, and he could use the Law to avoid close combat.
If one did not understand him well, it would be very difficult to defeat him.
He was the strongest of the Protectors.
However, Lu Yin understood Tianci far too well. Whether it was the thirty-seven years they had spent together or the battles before, Lu Yin had seen through Tianci far too well. In particular, Lu Yin had used Intrusive to sneak up on him this time. Tianci had been unable to resist at all.
Tianci had not attacked to defeat Lu Yin. Instead, he had been waiting for the battleship to arrive. He was waiting for Sang Tian to attack and massacre the Tian Yuan Universe. Even now, he still believed that the battleship was real.
However, even when Lu Yin forcefully broke his arm and took away his sword, Tianci still did not see it.
Lu Yin slowly turned around. Where was the battleship?
"You can't wait any longer. It's all fake." Lu Yin kicked out, and Tianci slammed into the stone door. He coughed up blood again as his strength drained away.
In the distance, Chuyi and the others sighed emotionally. A mighty Primordial Realm expert was actually in such a miserable state against Lu Yin. If Lu Yin was given a few more years, even a Primogenitor might not be his opponent.
Cough cough.
"Impossible, no, impossible." Tianci could not believe it. He had already woken up from his dream, but he still refused to believe that the battleship was fake.
How could it be fake?
He had clearly seen the president, Bao Qi, Empress Yao, and the others. It was impossible for the Tian Yuan Universe to know these people, nor did they know of their existence. If that was the case, how could they have lied to him?
Impossible. Impossible.
Lu Yin appeared in front of Tianci and looked down from above. He grabbed Tianci and took him to the Above Heaven Sect.
Even when Tianci was crushed under the aura of death, he still could not understand how Lu Yin had made him believe that he had entered a dream.
How did Lu Yin know about the president and the others?
If he had not seen the president, Bao Qi, and the others, it would have been impossible for him to enter a dream and open the stone door.
How had Lu Yin done it?
The aura of death dispersed, and Lu Yin stood in front of Tianci. "You ambushed a Primogenitor, suppressed the development of the humans, helped the Eternals, and lured the spiritualized universe to attack. How do you want to die, Tianci?"
Tianci looked at Lu Yin, his eyes filled with unwillingness. Die?
He did not want to die. It was impossible. He was the Protector of the Four Cardinal Regions, the strongest innate gift of an era in the spiritualized universe. He had seen that lord, and his understanding of the universe was even greater than Sang Tian's.
That lord had promised him that he would have a chance at eternal life.
He was different from the others, so why should he die?
Impossible, he couldn't have died.
Lu Yin was puzzled. Why was Tianci here?
Previously, he had thought that because Tianci had those two words, those two words must have the power of the Eternal Life Realm, which could allow him to escape karma. This meant that Tianci should have ceased to exist like the worm nest.
But he was still here. Could it be that those two words did not have the power of the Eternal Life Realm?
Or could it be that even if those two words belonged to the Eternal Life Realm, they did not have the power to escape karma?
Lu Yin could not figure it out.
"How do you know the president and the others?" Tianci looked at Lu Yin, his voice low.
Lu Yin put his hands behind his back. "I'm asking you, how do you want to die?"
"I don't want to die." Tianci's voice became even lower.
Lu Yin's lips curled up. "With what you have done to the humans of the Tian Yuan Universe, how can you not die?
Let's not talk about other things. You slaughtered the Lost Clan right in front of me. "Speaking of this, Lu Yin's cold eyes pierced Tianci.
