"Sir, there's something else I need to report." Lan's face was pale. She had suffered heavy injuries.
"Speak."
"Elder Yu is dead," Lan said.
Yu Sang Tian was shocked. "He's dead?"
"Yes, Young Master Yu reported that Old Yu is dead," Lan said.
Yu Sang Tian frowned. "How did he die?"
Lan hesitated and said, "He said it has something to do with Lu Sang Tian."
Yu Sang Tian understood that Lu Yin and Yue Ya must have been involved in the battle between Yue Ya and Lu Yin.
There were some battles that one could not get involved in unless one reached a certain level. He had been wary of the Zhi Kong Territory for so many years not because of Old Yu, but because of the Ru Clan and the Nine Heavens Universe behind him.
Foolish Old Man thought that he was smart, but in fact, most of the time, he thought that he was smart. He was far-sighted. After the Ru Clan was destroyed, he wanted to find a backer, but this backer was not someone he could rely on.
Previously, it was also Yue Ya's order to rely on Wu Jiang.
"So what if he dies?"
"What about the Zhikong Domain?
The Dark Messenger seems to be dead as well. What the Foolish Young Master means is that he hopes that we will acknowledge him as the master of the Zhikong Domain. "
"Didn't the Zhikong Region side with Wu Jiang?"
"Well, Yu Gongzi didn't say anything about it. Perhaps because of Yu Gongzi's death, he has a grudge against Wu Jiang?"
Yu Sang Tian didn't care. "It's up to them. If they don't have enough strength, they can make the Zhikong Domain disappear."
Lan's expression changed. Disappearing? That was the Zhikong Domain. Its history was even older than the Yu Sang Sky. Once it disappeared, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Especially now that the Zhikong Region had just pledged allegiance to the Wujiang Region. Regardless of the reason behind Old Yu's death, touching the Zhikong Region was equivalent to slapping the Wujiang Region in the face.
What did Lord Yu Sang Tian mean?
…
When the news of Foolish Old's death spread out, it caused a huge uproar. Not long ago, Foolish Old had publicly announced that he was going to rely on Wu Jiang. Now that he was dead, it was inevitable that people would think of something. One by one, they looked towards the sky above the sky.
Many people were curious about who the next master of the Zhikong Domain would be.
All this time, the master of the Zhikong Domain had been secretly transmitting messages. However, at this moment, there was no movement at all.
Outsiders did not know that the Dark Messenger was dead.
During this period of time, Yu Gongzi had also tried to contact Lu Yin, but he was unable to do so.
Just like that, another period of time passed, and Hua Manyi completely disappeared from the world. What replaced him was Lu Yin's boundless consciousness, which had nearly doubled in size.
It could be said that Hua Manyi was the powerhouse whose consciousness Lu Yin had absorbed the most, and he had absorbed more than Black Wushen and White Wushen. They were only at the level of the Sequence Laws, which corresponded to the Astral Form Realm. Hua Manyi, on the other hand, was at the Cosmic Realm.
The sudden increase in his consciousness allowed the Transformation of the Nine Heavens to double in size, giving him unprecedented confidence. The stronger the Transformation of the Nine Heavens was, the more ridiculous the increase in his strength would be. His current strength was definitely enough to fight Yu Sang Tian.
A Thought of Eternity could sweep through five of the 13 Celestial Phenomenon, but Lu Yin felt that he could try to break through it. He had only been able to do so after teaming up with the Primogenitor.
His sudden increase in confidence made him want to absorb Wu Wei's consciousness as well.
Fortunately, he managed to endure it. After all, he wasn't cultivating his consciousness by himself. It was better to stabilize it.
Raising his hand, he continued to roll the die. One. A useless item dropped. Continue. Five. Borrowing Talent?
This couldn't be wasted.
Lu Yin walked out and instantly appeared in front of Yuan Qi. Under Yuan Qi's stunned gaze, Lu Yin placed a hand on his shoulder, scaring him into a fight.
Hmm?
No?
Lu Yin was astonished.
Across from him, Yuan Qi was still in shock and looked at Lu Yin in confusion.
Lu Yin.
He turned around and vanished.
Yuan Qi was stunned. What had happened?
He looked over his shoulder with a blank expression.
Lu Yin was at a loss as well. Yuan Qi didn't have an innate gift, which was unexpected.
Spiritualized cultivators could produce spiritualized innate gifts or spiritualized weapons due to their spirit molts. Yuan Qi was a spiritualized weapon, the Dao Bell.
In fact, many spiritualized cultivators had their own innate gifts, just like many people in the Tian Yuan Universe. This was especially true for powerhouses like Yuan Qi, who should have an innate gift, but he didn't.
Lu Yin had chosen him because he wanted to see if Yuan Qi was hiding anything.
Yu Sang Tian had used the Small Spiritual Universe as an excuse to chase Yuan Qi to the Tian Yuan Universe, which was abnormal.
If Yuan Qi was hiding an innate gift, he definitely wouldn't be able to hide it from the die's five points.
However, Yuan Qi really didn't have one.
Lu Yin looked at the giant battleships in the distance. These were space-time ships that could cross the universe, comparable to Boundless.
"Rebirth: Great Wave Fighting Era."
The ship region was bustling with activity, and Boundless looked brand new beneath his feet.
"Master, Young Master Yu has been looking for you many times," Old Tao said.
Lu Yin looked at him, and Old Tao respectfully handed over the spirit cloud stone.
"Speak."
"My Lord, please tell me where Zhikong Territory will go from now on."
Lu Yin asked, "What's Beyond Heaven's attitude?"
"Beyond Heaven said that if Zhikong Territory is not strong enough, it can be replaced."
"That's not necessary. Your wish has been fulfilled. From now on, you are the master of Zhikong Territory."
"My Lord, I, I …" He didn't know what to say.
Lu Yin's gaze turned cold. He was still pretending. There was someone behind this person, and he had deliberately betrayed Old Yu because of that person's instructions. If he wasn't wrong, it was very likely Yu Sang Tian.
Yu Sang Tian seemed to have gone to a parallel universe and didn't interfere with the battle between Yue Ya and Lu Yin, but in reality, he had always been watching. He couldn't let Yue Ya's plan succeed, or else he wouldn't have given the old salamander the chance to kill Emperor Wuhuang.
This person's current uneasiness was just an act for Lu Yin to see.
In that case, there shouldn't be any problem with Lu Yin showing disdain for useless people.
"I've already done what I promised you. You are now the master of Zhikong Territory. That's all." Lu Yin was about to end the conversation.
Zhikong Territory. Yu Sang Tian hadn't expected things to turn out this way. He had thought that Lu Yin would accept him since he had helped Lu Yin plot against Old Yu. Now that he was the master of Zhikong Territory, he should have been useful. However, because he was weak, he posed no threat. How had things turned out this way?
Lu Yin seemed to want to get rid of him after he had outlived his usefulness.
"Wait, my Lord. I have something to say."
"Speak."
"Umm, Zhikong Territory can contact Royal God Mountain, and Zhikong Territory has great influence in the spiritualized universe. They can do many things for my Lord."
Lu Yin smiled. "Then think about what they can do for me." He ended the conversation and looked up to see an uninvited guest.
Outside the Ark Territory, a person walked out of the void and looked at Limitless with a complicated expression. He hadn't expected someone to come again.
This person was Ru Guo.
"Senior Ru Guo, what brings you to Limitless?" Lu Yin's voice sounded.
Ru Guo looked at Limitless from outer space. "I want to talk to Lu Sang Tian."
"Please come in."
Ru Guo took a step forward and entered the Ark Territory, avoiding the others. He boarded Limitless and appeared in front of Lu Yin.
This was the first time the two had met. Previously, in the Beishan Region, Lu Yin had suddenly attacked Foolish Old Man, and Eternity had attacked Ru Guo at the same time, leading to that confrontation.
However, Ru Guo was strong enough to escape and hadn't appeared again. Now, he had come to Limitless.
Ru Guo looked at Lu Yin and praised, "Lu Sang Tian is unbelievably young. When I was your age, I couldn't even reach the Progenitor Realm."
Lu Yin was amused. "Senior, are you praising yourself?"
"Of course not."
"In our Tianyuan Universe, it is as difficult as ascending to the heavens to cultivate to the Progenitor Realm. There is no one who has reached the Progenitor Realm at my age."
Ru Guo said, "But in the Ninth Heaven Universe, this is not too amazing."
Lu Yin raised his eyebrows. "Is the Ninth Heaven Universe that powerful?"
Ru Guo's expression was solemn. "This time, I came to dispel Lu Sang Tian's doubts and gain a basic understanding of the Ninth Heaven Universe."
"Why?" Lu Yin asked. He hadn't expected Ru Guo to come looking for him.
Ru Guo sighed deeply. "To cooperate."
"You and me?" Lu Yin was surprised.
"To be precise, it's the Ru family and Limitless."
"You attacked Limitless not long ago, and now you want to cooperate. Is this how the Ninth Heaven Universe does things?" Lu Yin found it ridiculous.
Ru Guo said, "There are no eternal enemies, only eternal benefits."
Lu Yin agreed. "That's right, but what benefits can you give me?"
Ru Guo pointed to the top of his head. "Whatever I know about the Ninth Heaven Universe, you can know about it."
"Why should I know about it?"
Lu Yin didn't care. "As far as I know, the people of the Ninth Heaven Universe can't enter the spiritualized universe without permission, let alone the distant Tianyuan Universe. I don't have to come into contact with the Ninth Heaven Universe at all."
Ru Guo shook his head. "Lu Sang Tian's words don't sound like the words of a universe master. If the Ninth Heaven Universe is really no threat, why should Lu Sang Tian join forces with the Eternal?"
Lu Yin smiled. "It's not joining forces, it's a tacit understanding."
"A tacit understanding between enemies?
How enviable. "
Ru Guo sighed and looked deeply at Lu Yin. "Then I'll put it another way. I'm here to give Limitless an explanation. I attacked Limitless before, and this matter can't be forgotten."
Lu Yin looked at him. "It seems like you really have no other choice."
Ru Guo's face turned ugly, and he said helplessly, "To tell you the truth, I really have no other choice. It's not as simple as you think if the Ru family wants to survive. The position of Inferior God is a curse, and everyone wants us to die."
"Back then, because of the spiritualized universe, Yu Sang Tian tried to find a way to fight with my brother. My brother was the Inferior God, and he died in that battle. Because of this, the Ninth Heaven Universe was extremely dissatisfied with Yu Sang Tian, especially people like Yue Ya. They always felt that the spiritualized universe was above the Ninth Heaven Universe. They despised the defeat of the Ru family, and they hated Yu Sang Tian's arrogance.
"If the Ru family wants to protect itself, we need allies. Yu Sang Tian is impossible, and as for the Ninth Heaven Universe, Dan Hong doesn't care about worldly affairs. It's even more impossible for Xingfan and Yue Ya to join forces. What I want to do now is to return to the Ninth Heaven Universe. As long as I'm there, I'm confident that the Ru family can continue. That's the root of the Ru family."
Lu Yin understood. "There are still members of the Ru family who haven't died on Royal God Mountain."
Ru Guo nodded and said in a heavy tone, "Including my daughter Ru Mu. They're all imprisoned on Royal God Mountain by Yue Ya's people."
"You don't want me to accompany you to Royal God Mountain to save people, do you?" Lu Yin raised an eyebrow.
Ru Guo smiled bitterly. "Of course not. I'll tell you how to do it. It's up to you whether you want to or not. It's simple, and I'm willing to pay the price. Lu Sang Tian, you can ask me anything you want, but at our level, no matter how the universe changes, it doesn't mean much.
