On the mountain range, most of the cultivators could not withstand the sudden speed. Those people were curled up in caves. The caves were set up with Numinous Treasure Arrays to prevent the cultivators from fainting. It also had the function of sending the cultivators out of the mountain range.
The Tomorrow Beast's power could throw the entire mountain range to the Western Regions in one go, but not everyone wanted to go there. This Sky Rope circled around the Northern Regions and entered the Western Regions. Some cultivators wanted to go to the Northern Regions, so they searched for caves that could go down there.
The spirit treasure arrays in the caves would throw the cultivators out according to each person's needs when they were far away from their destination. Because of the inertia of the Sky Rope, the cultivators would be brought a certain distance away until they reached their destination.
The Sky Rope was not free, and each person had to pay according to how far they wanted to go.
The Western Regions was the final destination.
An entire mountain range could hold at least a hundred thousand people, and at most a million people. Every time the Sky Rope was used, a large amount of resources would be tossed out.
Even with Lu Yin's speed, it would take a long time to travel from the Eastern Regions to the Western Regions, but the Sky Rope only took an hour.
After the Sky Rope was tossed out, people were immediately tossed out of the caves at the same time. Although it was only an instant, the cultivators had already disappeared from the Eastern Regions and entered the Northern Regions. That distance could be covered in an instant with the Sky Rope, but if the cultivators went by themselves, it would take a few years.
Cultivators were constantly being thrown out of the cave, like shooting stars streaking across the sky.
Lu Yin looked up and found it rather spectacular.
He turned around and saw the Mother Tree. The moment the Sky Rope was tossed out, it approached the Mother Tree and brushed past it.
This speed was indeed very fast.
Hmm?
There were people climbing the Mother Tree?
Lu Yin looked back, but the people climbing could no longer be seen.
They were dressed rather plainly, reminding him of the hardworking mortals who made a living at the edge of a cliff.
Just as he was thinking, someone walked down the mountain and approached him step by step.
Lu Yin did not even turn around. "I thought you would follow me to the Western Regions."
It was a woman dressed in black. She looked cold, but her face was like a peach blossom. Her eyes were intelligent and deep, and she had a unique aura that was cold in the dark.
Not every cultivator in the mountain range hid in a cave, and some could withstand the speed.
"Long time no see, Mr. Lu."
Lu Yin turned around and looked at the woman, "Who are you?"
The woman smiled and looked at him, "Mister Lu, you know that I'm here for you?"
Lu Yin replied, "You're very powerful. You've traveled the Nine Firmaments by yourself, and few can surpass you. You're the only one in this mountain range who hasn't seen me before."
"Because you're also waiting for me."
The woman smiled. "I'm Xingfan."
Lu Yin's expression changed, as he had not expected this woman to be Xing Fan, the God of Defense under Xing Fan. She was one of the top figures in the Nine Firmaments Universe, and she had worked together with Yue Ya to cause the deaths of cultivators from spiritualized universes. She had also fished for spiritualized universes to create the word "spirit" to plunder the resources of spiritualized universes.
That was not right.
"You're not Xingfan."
The woman said, "I am Xingfan."
"That's very disappointing."
"With Mister Lu's strength, if you don't live forever, you'll be disappointed."
Lu Yin replied, "You're definitely not Starsail, but the one who's talking to me right now is Starsail. There are too many ways to do that."
The woman smiled. "That's true. Then, does Mister Lu think the body is more important, or the mind?"
"The body."
"Why?"
Lu Yin's lips curled up. "Because I can kill you directly."
The woman's expression turned cold. "Why is Mister Lu so hostile towards me?"
"You forced Wu Huang to his death, killed cultivators from multiple domains, and fished for spiritualized universes. Which one of those things is not worthy of me killing you?" Lu Yin retorted.
The woman coldly replied, "Wu Huang has nothing to do with you. That was a deal between him and me. Those cultivators have nothing to do with you either. They belong to spiritualized universes, so to a certain extent, you're all enemies. As for the spiritualized Angler, we've already paid the price. You fished up the Nine Firmaments Universe, causing Yue Ya and I to be punished by the Blood Tower's God. This matter has already been settled."
Lu Yin replied, "It's only settled if I say so."
The woman's gaze was cold as she stared at Lu Yin for a while before calming down.
Above them, cultivators flew out like shooting stars.
The woman's tone was gentle. "Mister Lu Yin came to the Nine Firmaments to protect the Tian Yuan Universe. If I'm willing to help Mister Lu Yin, can I let bygones be bygones?"
Lu Yin calmly asked, "How do you want to help me?"
The woman smiled. "I'm still a God of Defense, so I still have some authority to decide if I want to restart a universe. Tian Yuan, consciousness, and spiritualized universes. Spiritualized universes cannot be restarted, so only consciousness and Tian Yuan are left. I can choose to restart a universe of consciousness."
Lu Yin stared at her and did not speak.
"Are you not interested, Mister?
Or do you not trust me? "she asked.
Lu Yin was indifferent. "What are your conditions?"
The woman's eyes narrowed. "The Spring and Autumn Scroll."
"The Spring and Autumn Scroll?
You want that turbid treasure? "
"Yes."
"Why?"
"Who doesn't want a turbid treasure?"
"But you're paying too much."
The woman frowned. "Is it?
For a God of Defense like me, it's not that big. It's just restarting a universe of consciousness. "
Lu Yin sneered. "No, what I mean is, if you lose your life, is this still big?" He reached out and grabbed the woman.
The woman was shocked. "Lu Yin, you want to kill me?"
"Why not?"
Lu Yin's palm fell. The woman's figure flickered, and her aura skyrocketed. She extended a finger, and the power at her fingertip condensed into a needle. "Heavenly Needle Technique."
Lu Yin's palm collided with the Heavenly Needle Technique, and the needle shattered.
Before Lu Yin had broken through to the Primordial realm, he would have needed to circulate endless power to shatter the Heavenly Needle Technique under the Great Perfection of the Change of the Nine Heavens. However, breaking through to the Primordial realm had increased his physical strength. The limits of his strength had increased by too much, so he did not need to use those things.
The woman's eyes narrowed. She stood where she was, allowing Lu Yin's palm to fall. She did not move at all. At that moment, the surroundings froze. The chains, the mountains, the people's hearts, their sights, everything froze. An indescribably terrifying power descended along with the chains.
Under Lu Yin's surprised gaze, the woman raised her hand.
Bang!
With a loud sound, the woman staggered back in shock. Even the Sun's Beast's strength could not stop this person?
The chains suddenly stopped. Many cultivators on the mountains sensed it.
Lu Yin frowned. "The Change of the Nine Heavens. You really haven't been slacking off."
Just now, the Star Sail had used the first realm of the Rushi Sutra to draw down the power of the Heavenly Rope that was hurling towards the Western Region. In her eyes, the Heavenly Rope had stopped, but in fact, it was still hurtling towards the Western Region. This contradictory phenomenon was the point of power.
That palm strike had not come from Xing Fan, but from the Sun's Beast. She had completely borrowed the power of the Sun's Beast's attack, which had caused the chains to stop.
However, Xing Fan could not see Lu Yin at all. Let alone the Sun's Beast, even the Sun's Beast that had thrown the Night Pillar at the Square Meter was not as powerful as him.
Lu Yin's palm strike had broken the Heavenly Needle Technique and destroyed Xing Fan's borrowed power. It had shocked Xing Fan, and she had actually experienced suppression. She, a mighty Defense God, had actually been suppressed.
"Lu Yin, there is no irreconcilable hatred between us. If the spiritualized universe wants revenge, let them come themselves. Why are you standing up for them?" Xing Fan shouted.
"Don't you want to protect the Tian Yuan Universe?"
Lu Yin nodded. "That's right. The spiritualized universe's blood debt is their own, and it has nothing to do with me. However, you tricked me, so it has something to do with me."
Xing Fan did not understand.
Lu Yin sneered. "Do you think you can control the direction of the universe's reboot?
Before entering the Nine Heavens, I thought that as long as I became a Defense God, I would be able to protect the Tian Yuan Universe. I was wrong. Do you know how Yue Ya died? "
Xing Fan was shocked. Yue Ya was dead?
Ever since Yue Ya had been sent to the Fifth Night Pillar, she had not paid attention to him.
Yue Ya and Lu Yin's battle had been noticed by Swordmaster Taicang, Liu Li, Jian Hong, and the others, but they had not spread the news. This matter involved too many people.
Even now, Xing Fan did not know that Yue Ya was dead.
Lu Yin shook his head. "You don't even know that Yue Ya is dead. How sad. In that case, no one will care if you die."
After speaking, he raised his hand and flicked his finger. Boundless power flowed from his fingertips, and he did not even need to use the Seal the Heavens Sequence Particle.
The power tore through the void and headed towards Xing Fan.
Xing Fan used the Heavenly Needle Technique again, but in that instant, her movements paused. Her pupils dilated, and she allowed the power to penetrate her body.
Lu Yin sent out five consecutive waves of power, all of which pierced through Xing Fan's body and sent her flying. Blood splattered across the sky.
"If you really want to talk, get over here yourself."
Xing Fan's body fell under the Heavenly Rope, and she looked up at the sky with blurred eyes. Pain and death drowned her, and she was filled with hatred. Although this body was not hers, it was one of the bodies that she was most satisfied with. It had the power of a complete Ku Adversity Stage cultivator, and she had cultivated the Nine Heavens Transformation and the Rushi Sutra. Although she had only obtained this power through spiritual cultivation, under her control, she was no weaker than an ordinary complete Ku Adversity Stage cultivator.
She had not expected to be unable to retaliate against Lu Yin, and she had been crippled.
Even her spirit seed had been destroyed.
Hateful, hateful, this person is too arrogant.
Xing Fan spat out a mouthful of blood, and her eyes were bloodshot. She looked up, and an invisible scorching light appeared on her forehead like a mirror illuminated by sunlight. Her body burned, and she turned into a beam of light that shot towards the mountain range and Lu Yin.
Lu Yin turned around and looked down. Again?
He raised his hand and waved it.
The void was split in two.
That scorching light was also split in two, and the world shattered. In front of his power, it was difficult for anyone other than an Eternal Realm cultivator to resist.
A single force could break all techniques.
At that moment, the mountain range shook, and the Heavenly Rope suddenly fell.
Lu Yin looked up. Not good, the branch of the Mother Tree that held the Heavenly Rope was about to break. Xing Fan had used the Rushi Sutra to borrow the power of the Sun Beast, and the Heavenly Rope's power had been taken away, causing it to stop abruptly. However, the branch could not withstand the impact of the sudden stop and slowly broke apart.
The Heavenly Rope and the mountain range crashed into the ground.
One cultivator after another walked out of the cave, overwhelmed with shock.
Some of the cultivators had not been in the cave, but some had seen Xing Fan and Lu Yin's battle, and they were all shocked.
The mountain range fell rapidly.
