Although Heavenly Master Yu Ran looked ordinary, he had a noble temperament. His eyes, in particular, left a deep impression.
As for his strength, he was definitely not at the Spiritual Prime Realm.
This was similar to the Tian Yuan Universe.
Lockbreakers put a lot of effort into lockbreaking, especially Origin Array Heavenly Masters. They were constantly researching sourcebox arrays and neglected their cultivation.
Origin Array Heavenly Masters were usually one level lower than cultivators.
However, they had sourcebox arrays to make up for it. In a one-on-one battle, Origin Array Heavenly Masters might be at a disadvantage, but as long as they had time to prepare, it was hard to say who would win.
There were some things that only Origin Array Heavenly Masters could do.
Heavenly Master Yu Ran faced Lu Yin. "Third Master, why have you come to the Numinous Treasure Association?"
Lu Yin sat down lazily. "How do you know that I don't do things for others?"
Heavenly Master Yu Ran's expression was indifferent. "The Numinous Treasure Association does not have the grievances that you are looking for. Even if it does, it is our internal matter and has nothing to do with outsiders."
"Sage Da Mu said the same."
"The Cai Family said the same."
"Ask Palace Mistress Yao next to me. The Jade Water Palace is the same. As an outsider, I should not interfere, but I still do."
Heavenly Master Yu Ran looked up. "Then you can ask everyone here who is willing to let an outsider interfere."
"The Numinous Treasure Association will deal with our own matters. We do not need to trouble outsiders," someone shouted.
"Third Master, please go back."
"Even if someone is being treated unfairly, we will not allow outsiders to interfere."
"No one invited Third Master. We do not welcome you here."
"Please leave …"
Countless voices rang out, drowning Lu Yin and the others like a wave.
Old Tao was helpless. This was the Numinous Treasure Association, and they were extremely united. Even if someone wanted to use Lu Yin to seek justice, they would be despised by the entire Association.
This was different from the Cai Family, the Daming Region, and the Jade Water Palace.
It was different from all the outside powers.
Unity was something that cultivation could not achieve. It was a kind of momentum, a kind of spirit, and a kind of belief that could overcome everything.
These two words rarely appeared in the cultivation world, and cultivators were not used to it.
Lu Yin praised, "As expected of the Numinous Treasure Association. Heavenly Master Yu Ran is so confident. You are right. I do not do things for others' eyes."
"Who is it?"
"Plain Master Dao."
Yu Ran was not surprised. Out of all the Spiritual Treasure Realm and the entire spiritualized universe, the only one that Lu Yin was willing to fight was the Su Master's Way.
"Third Master, please return. Senior Su has long stopped caring about worldly affairs. Regardless of whether it's the battle for Mulberry Sky or the battle of the world's experts, it has nothing to do with Senior Su."
Lu Yin looked at her, "I believe that. Then, there's one more person."
Yu Ran was puzzled. Other than the Plain Master, who else in the Spirit Treasure Realm could catch the attention of the Third Master?
"Who is it?"
Lu Yin solemnly raised a hand and pointed at himself. "Me."
Everyone was confused.
Old Tao, Palace Mistress Yao, and the others were all confused, as they had no idea what Lu Yin was talking about.
Yu Ran was puzzled. "What do you mean, Third Master?"
Lu Yin said with a serious face, "I have crossed the vast starry sky to come to the Spirit Treasure Domain. I can't do anything and I can't see anyone. How do you expect me to put my face?
If word gets out, how am I supposed to survive in this spiritualized universe? "
"Do you want me to be stepped on by you?"
Around them, everyone from the Spirit Treasure Guild scolded, and the noise spread through the starry sky.
In the corner, those who stopped Lu Yin were also angry. He was looking for trouble. He was the one who asked for it, and no one invited him.
What did his face have to do with the Spirit Treasure Realm?
Yu Ran raised his hand and suppressed his voice. He stared at Lu Yin, "Then what do you want?"
Lu Yin stood up and looked in a direction. "I heard that the Spirit Treasure Guild has the Nine Steps Celestial Master Ladder. Let me see."
"No."
Before Yu Ran could speak, someone from another direction rejected him. It was another Heavenly Master. "The Nine Steps Celestial Master Ladder is the sacred ground of the Spirit Treasure Guild. Anyone who steps on it must have the determination to join the Spirit Treasure Guild. Ascending the nine steps to become a Heavenly Master is a difficult process, but also the most sincere one."
"Over the years, there have been countless people who wanted to join the Spirit Treasure Guild to become a Heavenly Master, but only a few succeeded. Only those who have become a Heavenly Master can go there. The rest are not qualified."
Yu Ran said solemnly, "Third Master, there is nothing to see on the Nine Steps Celestial Master Ladder. It is meaningless to those who do not understand the Spirit Treasure Guild."
"What if I have to see it?" Lu Yin said proudly.
Yu Ran's face darkened. "Either you are qualified to challenge the Nine Steps Celestial Master Ladder, or the Spirit Treasure Guild will be united. Even if we are all killed, we will protect our dignity."
"Is it that serious?" Lu Yin was surprised.
Old Tao whispered, "Yes, it is. Since ancient times, many powerful Heavenly Masters have died on the Celestial Master Ladder. It is the place everyone in the Spirit Treasure Guild yearns for."
"There are dozens of Heavenly Masters in the spiritualized universe, but there are only nine in the Spirit Treasure Guild. It is not that they do not want to join, but that they cannot pass the Celestial Master Ladder. No one can humiliate the Celestial Master Ladder," Yu Ran said loudly.
Lu Yin frowned. This Heaven's Hand was really capable. No one could get close to the Celestial Master Ladder, but they could hide something.
Either they were powerful enough to avoid the entire Spirit Treasure Guild, or they were one of the nine Heavenly Masters and could get close.
Lu Yin believed that it was the latter.
Everyone in the Spirit Treasure Guild stared at Lu Yin, as if they would attack him if he dared to humiliate the Celestial Master Ladder.
Lu Yin stretched lazily. "I'm someone who does as I please. I don't care about Yu Sang Sky or Outer Sky. I don't care about the Extreme Palace or the Ultimate Pinnacle. How could I be threatened by you? I'm going to watch the Celestial Master Staircase." With that, he vanished.
Yu Ran was shocked. "Stop it."
If possible, no one would want to fight to the death with someone as ruthless as Lu Yin.
Lu Yin had defeated many experts along the way, but they were all experts who were thought to be dead.
If the Spirit Treasure Guild really wanted to fight to the death with Lu Yin, the outcome would be worse than the artistic conception.
Yu Ran hoped to pressure Lu Yin with the entire Spirit Treasure Guild, but if the pressure was not enough to make Lu Yin retreat, the only thing that awaited them was a fight to the death.
The Nine Steps Celestial Master Ladder was located in a corner of the Spirit Treasure Guild. It was the same height as the main hall of the Spirit Treasure Guild and was one of the highest places in the guild.
No one could stop Lu Yin.
Lu Yin arrived at the bottom of the Nine Steps Celestial Master Ladder in a flash.
Behind him, the two guards of the Celestial Master Ladder looked at him blankly.
Yu Ran saw Lu Yin appear at the bottom of the Celestial Master Ladder and his heart sank. It was too late.
The people of the Spirit Treasure Guild followed. At this moment, the air was silent.
Lu Yin looked at the bottom of the Celestial Master Ladder and found it.
"You, you."
Lu Yin turned around and smiled at the two, "You've worked hard."
"You humiliated the Celestial Master Ladder, kill him." Someone was furious, his eyes red and was about to attack.
Yu Ran shouted, "Third Master, you want to fight to the death with the Spirit Treasure Guild?"
Lu Yin looked at the murderous intent of countless people from the Spirit Treasure Guild. These people really wanted to attack.
In the square, Old Tao and the others were also surrounded. The atmosphere dropped to the freezing point, and a fight could happen at any time.
Old Tao broke out in cold sweat. Master, following you is too exciting. He would never have thought that he would be besieged by the entire Spirit Treasure Guild.
How many Spirit Treasure Guilds would descend?
Palace Master Yao was alert. It was difficult to kill out of the Spirit Treasure Guild. This was going to be a tough battle.
Cai Keqing was also moved. The Third Master's ability to cause trouble was too strong.
The Star Toad's body changed from gold to a colorful color. Although this guy could lockbreak, it would be troublesome if the opponent did not give them time to fight.
Xu Wang and Li Shou put down their poles and bared their teeth at the surroundings.
Those who had been following Lu Yin retreated. Sure enough, the Third Master had angered the entire Spirit Treasure Guild and sent them to test the Dayu Villa's strength.
The Spirit Treasure Realm was silent at this moment.
Everyone was waiting for the first person to make a move.
At the bottom of the Celestial Master Ladder, Lu Yin looked around, "Why are you so nervous? This Celestial Master Ladder is difficult to climb?"
Yu Ran stared at Lu Yin and scanned the ground. It seemed that he had to use this array.
Suddenly, she looked up at Lu Yin and was stunned. What was going on?
Lu Yin had stepped onto the Celestial Master Ladder without anyone noticing.
This was nothing. What really stunned Yu Ran was the reaction of the ladder. It was very calm. How could this be?
Could it be that the Third Master also knew how to unlock spirit treasures?
It wasn't just Yu Ran; everyone was stunned.
In the plaza, Old Tao and the others also saw this scene from afar. Did the Third Master know how to unlock spirit treasures?
Palace Mistress Yao, Cai Keqing, and the others were all stunned.
Only the Star Toad rolled its eyes. The atmosphere had been so tense that it had thought that a fight would break out.
Its body turned golden again.
There was a good show to watch. No one in the spiritualized universe knew that this kid was the most powerful Origin Array Heavenly Master in the Tian Yuan Universe. This was equivalent to the Tian Yuan Universe messing with the spiritualized universe.
Interesting. It stared at the Celestial Master Ladder.
Lu Yin took another step onto the Celestial Master Ladder and stood firmly on the first step.
He stood on the first step of the Nine Steps Celestial Master Ladder.
Yu Ran felt like she had seen a ghost.
This person was so young, but his power level was already comparable to Sang Tian's. The spiritualized universe could not believe this.
And now, he was walking the path of a spirit treasure?
How did he cultivate?
How could there be such a person in this world?
"Third Master, you know how to unlock spirit treasures?" the one who had stopped Lu Yin from climbing the ladder asked. His name was Ying Han.
Lu Yin did not even turn his head. "A little."
Everyone's eyes fell on Lu Yin's feet. Lu Yin's ability in the path of spirit treasures could be seen as long as he lifted his feet.
The Nine Steps Celestial Master Ladder did not start with the Numinous Treasure Association. Instead, it increased as the number of Heavenly Masters increased.
An additional Heavenly Master meant an additional step on the Celestial Master Ladder.
One less Heavenly Master meant one less step.
In the current era, there were nine Heavenly Masters in the Numinous Treasure Association. The Plain Master Path was not included.
The first step of the Celestial Master Ladder was usually a measurement. It measured whether the person who climbed the Celestial Master Ladder was walking the path of spirit treasures. It also measured the person's ability in the path of spirit treasures by the depth of the footprints.
The deeper the footprints, the weaker the person's ability in the path of spirit treasures. The shallower the footprints, the stronger the person's ability in the path of spirit treasures.
Ying Han remembered that when she had challenged the Celestial Master Ladder, he had challenged it three times.
