The man did not expect Lu Yin to wait for him. He hurriedly said, "There is no spiritual treasure array on the eighth step. Even if you walk past it, it doesn't count."
Lu Yin stepped on the eighth step and walked towards the ninth step without looking at the man.
The man gritted his teeth and watched Lu Yin walk past him. He shouted anxiously, "Are you afraid?"
Lu Yin stopped and turned to look at the man.
The man and Lu Yin looked at each other. He was nervous and no longer had the smile on his face.
"Are you looking for death?" Lu Yin said slowly.
The man gritted his teeth, "It's just a spiritual treasure array. If you're not afraid, why are you running away?"
"Where are you from?" Lu Yin asked.
The man said in a deep voice, "Heavenly Master of the Numinous Treasure Association, Weighing."
"I'm asking you, where are you from?"
"I'm from the Numinous Treasure Region."
Lu Yin frowned. The karma spiral on his fingertip pierced through the man.
In an instant, the man felt like he was penetrated. He subconsciously took a few steps back and looked at Lu Yin in confusion. His face was pale as he did not know what happened.
Lu Yin squinted his eyes, "Royal God Mountain."
The man's eyes narrowed. How did this person know he was from the Royal God Mountain?
From afar, Heavenly Master Yu Ran shouted, "Heavenly Master Weighing, leave the Celestial Master Staircase immediately. You're violating the rules of the Numinous Treasure Association."
Weighing ignored Heavenly Master Yu Ran and stared at Lu Yin, "What did you do to me?"
Lu Yin smiled, "Seems like you're looking for death." He looked forward, "Just as well, the spiritual treasure array is completed."
Weighing heaved a sigh of relief, "Since it's completed, please challenge me." He was about to leave the Celestial Master Staircase.
Suddenly, a hand fell on his shoulder. It was Lu Yin.
"You come and go as you please. Who do you think you are?" Lu Yin threw Weighing into the spiritual treasure array.
Weighing was shocked and hurriedly defended himself.
The modified spiritual treasure array was called Heavenly Punishment. It was created by some Heavenly Master of the Royal God Mountain. It was given to him to join the Numinous Treasure Association.
The Royal God Mountain was a small spiritual universe. They did not know that they were not part of the spiritualized universe. However, under Yu Sang Tian's management, they were subconsciously separated from the major forces of the spiritualized universe.
Although they were separated, they would still send people to join them to understand the major forces.
Weighing was the Heavenly Master sent by the Royal God Mountain to join the Numinous Treasure Association.
This time, he took the risk of altering the Numinous Treasure Array in order to use the Heavenly Retribution to get rid of the Third Master. Once he got rid of this person, his position in the Royal God Mountain would be different.
In fact, he didn't know much about the Third Master's character. He only knew that this person came from the Dayu Mountain Villa and was an enemy of the Imperial God Mountain. He was the one who protected the Imperial God Mountain's criminals.
As for Lu Yin challenging the world's experts along the way, he had been in seclusion at the time and had not had the time to deal with it.
It wasn't until Lu Yin had challenged the Celestial Master Staircase and caused such a huge commotion that he had come out. When he saw that it was Lu Yin, he didn't think much of it and attacked.
As for breaking the rules of the Numinous Treasure Association, he did not mind. At most, he could challenge the Celestial Master Stairs again.
However, he did not expect that the Third Master would be even more unruly than him. Not only did he not wait for him to modify the Spiritual Treasure Array, he had also delayed the completion of the Spiritual Treasure Array with great difficulty, but this person actually threw him in first. This was a scoundrel.
His name was Weighing, and he liked to weigh others. This time, he was also weighing the Third Master. He didn't expect that in the end, he would be weighed by the Third Master.
"Third Boss, please show mercy!" Heavenly Master Yu Ran shouted.
Lu Yin looked over. "Your Numinous Treasure Association members don't follow the rules, so don't blame me. This guy is from the Royal God Mountain.
He wants to use the Celestial Master Stairs to kill me. I still need an explanation from the Numinous Treasure Association. "
Yu Ran did not expect such a thing to happen.
She knew that Weighing came from the Royal God Mountain, and so did the Numinous Treasure Association. However, she did not care. The Numinous Treasure Association had people from various factions. They were not a single faction, but a gathering place for people who cultivated the Dao of Numinous Treasures.
However, the Numinous Treasure Association had its own rules.
Factions were not allowed to fight internally. Once violated, they would be expelled from the Association.
Weighing's action could be big or small. If the Third Master did not mind, they could just strip him of his position as the Heavenly Master Weighing and never allow him to challenge the Celestial Master Stairs to become a Celestial Master. However, if the Third Master minded, Weighing's action could be regarded as an assassination by the Numinous Treasure Association. It would have a huge impact on the Association.
The reputation of the Numinous Treasure Association in the spiritualized universe would instantly collapse.
"Third Master, the eighth step's array has been changed. I can make the decision. You do not need to walk on it. You can directly ascend to the ninth step. This is our compensation to you."
"As for Weighing, we will strip him of his position as a Celestial Master and never allow him to become a Celestial Master again." Yu Ran hurriedly said.
This punishment was fair. After all, Lu Yin did not step into the array after the change, so he did not lose anything.
Lu Yin was cold and arrogant, "I do not accept."
Yu Ran frowned, "Third Master, what do you want?"
Lu Yin looked around, "The Celestial Master Stairs is said to be unpardonable by outsiders. Even the Numinous Treasure Association wants to regain its dignity. What about yourselves?"
Everyone in the Numinous Treasure Association had ugly expressions.
"Your own people changed the array in front of everyone just to deal with someone who challenged the Celestial Master Stairs. Isn't this an insult to the Celestial Master Stairs?"
"What will the senior who created the Celestial Master Stairs think?"
"How will the Numinous Treasure Association survive in the spiritualized universe?"
"I would like to ask, is this matter that simple?"
No one refuted Lu Yin's words. This matter was too ugly, and everyone in the Numinous Treasure Association was humiliated.
Yu Ran clenched his fist, "Third Master is right. From today onwards, Weighing Master will be expelled from the Numinous Treasure Association and will never be allowed to step into the Numinous Treasure Domain."
No one objected. Even those who were close to Weighing Master did not plead for mercy. This matter was too embarrassing.
Heavenly Master Zhi Shan shook his head. This Weighing Master was too stupid. Even if he wanted to deal with the Third Master, he should not have done so. Did he really think that the Numinous Treasure Association would stand up for him?
Or did he not know how powerful the Third Master was?
Qian Huifeng's gaze was cold. Weighing Master, even if he was not expelled from the Numinous Treasure Association, he would still kick Weighing Master out.
Those who did not become Celestial Masters were furious. This Weighing Master was not worthy of being a Celestial Master.
On the Celestial Master Stairs, Lu Yin nodded, "That's more like it. This will make me believe that this matter has nothing to do with the Numinous Treasure Association. Next, it will be between me and this person."
Heavenly Master Yu Ran was surprised, "Third Master, Weighing Master has already been punished."
"That's the Numinous Treasure Association's punishment. What does it have to do with me? This person wanted to deal with me in front of everyone. If I don't kill him, how can I live up to the title of Third Master of the Dayu Manor?" Lu Yin shouted.
"Third Master, please deal with him after you leave the Numinous Treasure Domain." Heavenly Master Yu Ran hurriedly said.
Weighing Master was a disgrace to the Numinous Treasure Association, but before this, this person had contributed greatly to the association. It was not a problem for him to study the Numinous Treasure Array with them.
If they allowed the Third Master to kill Weighing Master here, the Numinous Treasure Association would not be able to accept it.
Expelling Weighing Master from the Numinous Treasure Domain was also to give him time to escape. This was the Numinous Treasure Association's last bit of mercy.
Lu Yin clasped his hands behind his back, "Are you telling me what to do?"
Heavenly Master Yu Ran was helpless. This person's words were arrogant, but his strength made her feel helpless.
"Third Master also walks the path of Numinous Treasure. You can be considered half a member of the Numinous Treasure Association. Please give us some face." Heavenly Master Yu Ran's attitude softened.
On the side, Heavenly Master Zhi Shan bowed, "Third Master, please give us some face. Let's talk after we leave the Numinous Treasure Domain."
Heavenly Master Yinghan bowed, "Third Master, please give us some face."
In the corner, Qian Huifeng bowed, "Third Master, please give us some face."
"Third Master, please …"
Voices sounded from all directions. They all came from the Heavenly Masters. Some were the Nine Heavenly Masters of the Numinous Treasure Association. Some were not yet Heavenly Masters of the Numinous Treasure Association, but they were still Heavenly Masters of Numinous Treasure.
Listening carefully, there were almost twenty people around.
That was almost twenty Heavenly Masters of Numinous Treasure begging for mercy.
At this moment, Zhi Hua said clearly in the corner, "Third Master, please give us some face. Let's talk after we leave the Numinous Treasure Domain."
Several people hurriedly bowed, "Third Master, please …"
One after another, everyone in the Numinous Treasure Association bowed and begged for mercy.
Heavenly Master Yu Ran did not expect this.
The Numinous Treasure Association's attitude towards the Third Master had completely changed.
In the beginning, they were ready to fight to the death to protect their dignity. Now, they were begging for mercy, not because they were afraid, but because they treated the Third Master as half of their own.
If they were afraid, they would rather die than surrender. But when it came to their own people, they could beg for mercy.
There was no longer any hostility from them.
Lu Yin also noticed it.
If it were the Heavenly Masters who begged for mercy, he might not have given them face. But there were so many people in the Numinous Treasure Association who were begging for mercy. They all called him a junior, which wiped away his killing intent.
These people were no longer hostile to him.
He saw the shadow of the Tianyuan Universe's Lockbreaker Society in these people.
At this moment, the Numinous Treasure Association bowed to him, but it did not count as bowing.
They acknowledged Lu Yin's position as a powerhouse in the Numinous Treasure Association.
"He's just a piece of trash. If you want him, I'll give him to you." Lu Yin did not care.
Heavenly Master Yu Ran heaved a sigh of relief.
The people of the Numinous Treasure Association raised their heads, "Thank you, Third Master."
"Thank you, Third Master."
…
At this time, Weigh came out of the Numinous Treasure Array in a sorry state. This array was set up by him, so he could naturally escape, but it was not easy.
He was panting heavily and sweating profusely. He was still in a state of shock.
He looked up and saw Lu Yin's mocking gaze.
"Weigh, you are expelled from the Numinous Treasure Association. Leave the Numinous Treasure Domain immediately," Heavenly Master Yu Ran shouted.
Weigh could not hear anything outside the Numinous Treasure Array. Heavenly Master Yu Ran's words shocked him, "You expelled me from the Numinous Treasure Association?"
Heavenly Master Yu Ran's gaze was cold. If not for this person, she would not have begged the Third Master and asked the entire Numinous Treasure Association to plead for mercy, "Leave the Numinous Treasure Domain immediately and never set foot in it again."
Weigh could not accept it, "I was the one who set up the Tier 8 array. I just changed it. I wanted to change it anyway, but the Third Master happened to challenge me. It was just a coincidence. What did I do wrong?"
"Zhi Shan's Tomb of Landscape used to be a Tier 1 array. The Third Master changed it to a Tier 2 array. He is the same."
Zhi Shan was stunned. He was being dragged into this.
Lu Yin glanced at Zhi Shan with a cold gaze.
Zhi Shan quickly bowed and smiled awkwardly.
Lu Yin retracted his gaze.
