Ming Xiaolong remembered that Lu Yin came from the three universes. Her master had mentioned it before. She was surprised, "How did you cover up the aura of the outer universe?"
Lu Yin smiled at her, "Teach you?"
Ming Xiaolong was not interested, "No need."
Lu Yin's expression was sincere, "It's best to learn. Otherwise, if the Ninth Heaven Universe is destroyed one day, it will be difficult for you to escape to other universes to hide your identity."
Ming Xiaolong suddenly became angry. She wanted to scold Lu Yin, but her good upbringing made her only say the word "thief". She turned away angrily.
Seeing Ming Xiaolong leave, Lu Yin laughed. It was best that she did not disturb him.
He did not know the language of the Ninth Heaven Universe, but it was easy to learn.
For a few days, Lu Yin was reading the history of the Nature Manifestation Valley.
He still did not understand the phenomenon of heaven and earth. There would not be any explanation of the general trend of heaven and earth recorded there. This was also the reason why Ming Xiaolong left without worry. However, Lu Yin still had a general understanding of what he wanted to know.
The Nature Manifestation Valley had a long history. As for how long it was, there was no way to investigate. It was impossible to calculate the years. For example, no one knew when the current God of Defense, Xue Ta, Wonder Gate, and Qing Lian were born. The Eternal Life Realm had an endless lifespan. They had survived until now, and there were no legends about their deeds.
Although the history of the Nature Manifestation Valley could not be seen clearly, Lu Yin found something interesting. Before Xingfan went into seclusion, the Nature Manifestation Valley could still produce powerhouses. However, after Xingfan went into seclusion, the Nature Manifestation Valley could no longer produce such powerhouses.
This was one of the reasons.
Secondly, whenever a powerhouse of heaven and earth appeared in the Nature Manifestation Valley, their status was unparalleled. From these ancient records, it could be seen that every generation of Nature Manifestation Valley had a powerhouse of heaven and earth. The words left behind were very domineering, or rather, high and mighty.
Thirdly, Lu Yin's guess had almost been confirmed. No one knew the whereabouts of every generation of Myriad Elephant Valley's Heaven and Earth Phenomenon powerhouses. Apart from knowing that there was a single person who made the various powers not dare to provoke Myriad Elephant Valley, there was no record of what the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon powerhouses of that generation had done or experienced.
The Nature Manifestation Valley itself had doubts about the records of every generation of powerhouses of heaven and earth.
Why would there be doubts?
If Lu Yin's guess was correct, then the only reason why Heaven and Earth Phenomenon powerhouses were respected and not known by the world was because what they did was not in the Nine Firmaments, but in spiritualization.
Before the Star Sail, the Nine Heavens Universe's plundering of the resources of the spiritualized universe, the birth of the Spirit Threads, and the combination of the Spirit Word and the funnel were all Nature Phenomenon powerhouses of the Myriad Elephant Valley.
Lu Yin put down the beast bone. If his guess was right, then the birth of the Starsail was equivalent to putting an end to the existence of Heaven and Earth Phenomenon powerhouses in the Myriad Elephant Valley. How could the Myriad Elephant Valley not know about this?
How could Wan Lou not know?
They weren't fools. They must have guessed something. Maybe the Myriad Elephant Valley could only produce one Heaven and Earth Phenomenon expert every generation, or maybe there were some conditions that allowed only one person to grasp the spirit thread. Therefore, once the starsail was formed, the Myriad Elephant Valley was gone.
If that was really the case, then the Myriad Elephant Valley was truly aggrieved. The opportunity had been forcefully snatched away by Xingfan, and they didn't dare to snatch it back. This was because Xingfan was a god of defense, and the Myriad Elephant Valley couldn't afford to offend him. They had no choice but to use Xingfan's reputation to gain face for the Myriad Elephant Valley.
If not for Xingfan, the Myriad Elephant Valley would not have been able to produce a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon powerhouse. Would the Spring and Autumn Scroll dare to treat the Myriad Elephant Valley this way?
Lu Yin's eyes flickered. Could it be that the Spring and Autumn Scroll not only wanted to see the connections that the Myriad Elephant Valley had accumulated over the years, but also wanted to snatch a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon?
Once the Spring and Autumn Scroll snatched a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon powerhouse, the Myriad Elephant Valley would be able to cooperate with the Nine Firmaments to plunder the spiritualized universe's resources. The Spring and Autumn Scroll would then be able to completely reverse the situation.
What Sixth Night Pillar? What Myriad Elephant Valley? Everyone would be helpless against the Spring and Autumn Scroll.
Lu Yin frowned, as he didn't know if his guess was right.
If only one Heaven and Earth Phenomenon could be born, then did the Spring and Autumn Scroll know about it?
If it did, then why did they hope that a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon powerhouse would be born during the Starsail's time?
Lu Yin exhaled. While there weren't many powers in the Nine Firmaments Universe, and the number of them could be counted with one's fingers, the relationships between them were very complicated.
He returned to the canyon and looked up at the stars. If he wanted to know if his guess was correct, there was one way to do so, and that was to understand Heaven and Earth Phenomenon. He wanted to see if another powerhouse with Heaven and Earth Phenomenon could be born and whether or not they could plunder the resources of the spiritualized universe.
However, it wasn't easy at the moment. Ming Xiaolong was clearly on guard against him. She had asked all sorts of questions about Heaven and Earth Phenomena, and if he asked her about it, she definitely wouldn't say anything.
There was no rush. He just needed to bring Ming Xiaolong along on this trip to the mausoleum. There would always be a chance to ask her something.
A month had passed since Lu Yin had arrived at the Myriad Elephant Valley.
Lu Yin walked out of the canyon and headed to the mausoleum.
Ming Xiaolong's expression wasn't too good. That woman hadn't left yet, and she wanted to stall for time.
Lu Yin saw her hesitation, and it was just as well. If she wanted to stall for time, then he could ask her along the way.
"Let's go to the mausoleum."
Elder Le had also brought Shui Su along.
When she heard that they were going to the mausoleum, Shui Su's eyes lit up. "The mausoleum is the Book of the World Gathering?
You want to go too? Let's go together. "
Lu Yin glanced at her. "The condition is to bring you to the Myriad Elephant Valley. You can go on your own."
Shui Su whispered, "I want to go to the mausoleum too. You guys want to go too. Let's go together."
Wan Lou arrived, and his expression wasn't too good. He glanced at Ming Xiaolong and then at Lu Yin. "Sir, you still want to go to the mausoleum?"
Lu Yin nodded. "Since I agreed, of course I have to go."
Wan Lou said in a low voice, "The situation has already been explained to you. Why make things difficult for the Myriad Elephant Valley?"
Ming Xiaolong blocked in front of Lu Yin and stared at Wan Lou. "Are we making things difficult for the Myriad Elephant Valley or for you, Valley Master Wan?"
Wan Lou was helpless. "Xiaolong, the situation is complicated. It can't be explained in one or two sentences."
"Then don't say it. We're definitely going to the mausoleum." Ming Xiaolong was stubborn.
Wan Lou looked at Lu Yin and took out five scabs from his cosmic ring. "If you promise not to look for the Spring and Autumn Slips, I'll give you these scabs as compensation."
Lu Yin's eyes lit up. Five?
The Myriad Elephant Valley's resources weren't small.
Ming Xiaolong frowned. "Wan Lou, what do you mean?"
"Xiaolong, this is for your own good. If you could easily bring Xiaochou back, I wouldn't stop you, but you can't do it." Wan Lou was rarely angry at Ming Xiaolong.
Ming Xiaolong's face turned pale.
Elder Le lowered his head. He was the one who had told Wan Lou that Lu Yin wanted the scabs. It wasn't that he didn't want to save Ming Xiaochou, but that he couldn't.
He already knew that the Valley Master had lost the bet. Even the Valley Master had lost, so what if Lu Yin was stronger?
Could he destroy the Spring and Autumn Slips?
The only thing that could stop Lu Yin was temptation.
Everyone looked at Lu Yin, waiting for his decision.
Shui Su's face turned pale. Why did she feel like this guy was going to cause trouble for the Spring and Autumn Slips?
The more she listened, the more she felt that something was wrong. No, she couldn't go with him. Otherwise, she would be in trouble.
Wan Lou stared at Lu Yin. Five scabs had been accumulated by the Myriad Elephant Valley over the years. Over the years, the various great powers would more or less accumulate some scabs so that suitable disciples could go to Ye Hai to take the test. Five scabs didn't seem like much, but it was actually quite a lot. Even the Four Lin Sword Sect and the Nine Foot Garden might not be able to take out one or two scabs. They would either use them up or exchange them with others.
If all the scabs that had been hidden in the Nine Firmaments Universe were collected, the number would definitely be exaggerated. However, if they were scattered, there wouldn't be many left. After all, the Nine Firmaments Universe was too big. Aside from the various great powers in the universe, there were also scattered families, waning rogue cultivators, and a few academies in the vast universe.
Wan Lou was sure that aside from him, very few people could take out five scabs at once. This temptation should be enough.
He was so focused on Lu Yin that he didn't see Ming Xiaolong's mocking gaze.
No matter what, it couldn't change this. This was the condition that Master wanted this little thief to complete. Once it was completed, he could be apprenticed to Master. How honorable would that be? How could these scabs affect it?
Sure enough, Lu Yin refused. "Some promises must be fulfilled. Valley Master Wan, I am not a meddlesome person. If possible, I don't want to get involved, but I can't change it." Then he looked at Ming Xiaolong. "I really want these five scabs."
Ming Xiaolong was stunned. Lu Yin's refusal was normal, but what did he mean?
"What do you want the scabs for?
This is the ticket to Ye Hai. You already have it. "She paused." You don't need it. "
Lu Yin turned and walked out of the valley. "Nothing. I just want to tell you that I really want it."
Ming Xiaolong was baffled. Even if he wanted it, he had already rejected Wan Lou. Wan Lou couldn't give it to him.
Wan Lou's face was heavy as he put away the scabs. He was helpless. He couldn't stop Ming Xiaolong or Lu Yin. He only hoped that they wouldn't be too impulsive.
"Hey, you're not leaving?" Ming Xiaolong looked back at Shui Su.
Shui Su stepped forward and hesitated. "Well, I suddenly remembered something. I won't go to the Ling Yuan now. Goodbye." Then she quickly ran out of the valley, not daring to look back.
Lu Yin laughed. He knew that they were looking for trouble with the Spring and Autumn Scroll, so he didn't dare to follow. It was a wise choice.
But how were they going to leave?
To leave the Wanxiang Valley, they had to go through the abyss.
Thinking about this, Lu Yin and Ming Xiaolong slowly walked out of the valley.
Wan Lou's voice came from behind. "Xiaolong, you'd better stay. If Mister Wan Lou acts alone, he'll have a better chance."
Ming Xiaolong snorted. "Are you afraid that I'll drag you down or that I'll embarrass you?
Don't worry, I'll go in my own name. I won't drag the Wanxiang Valley down. "
Wan Lou was helpless as he watched Lu Yin and Ming Xiaolong leave. A figure walked out from behind him. It was Ah Zuo, who had led the way for Lu Yin.
"How strong is this person?" Wan Lou whispered.
Ah Zuo's voice was dry as if he hadn't spoken for a long time. "I can't see clearly, but he's very strong."
"Can you force him to stay?"
Behind them, Elder Le was shocked when he heard this. He wanted to speak, but it wasn't his turn to speak.
Ah Zuo muttered to himself for a moment. "I can't."
Elder Le heaved a sigh of relief. He had seen with his own eyes how Lu Yin had subdued the Silin Sword Sect. Although the Wanxiang Valley had a high status and a deep foundation, they might not be a match for the Silin Sword Sect in a real fight. The Silin Sword Sect couldn't do anything to Lu Yin, let alone the Wanxiang Valley.
"Follow them and protect Miss." Wan Lou was powerless.
Ah Zuo disappeared.
At the edge of the Wanxiang Valley, Shui Su looked at the abyss with an ugly expression. How could they leave?
Behind them, Lu Yin and Ming Xiaolong arrived.
