Gu Duanke came to greet Lu Yin, showing great respect.
Lu Yin smiled. "Senior, sorry to disturb you."
Gu Duanke smiled. "It's an honor for Mister Lu to come to the seventh pillar. Please."
"Thank you."
"Right, there's something I need to remind Mister Lu. There are people from all over the universe. Unless you find an enemy, it's best not to observe others. After all, many people don't want outsiders to know where they are."
"I understand. Even if Senior didn't tell me, I wouldn't observe others."
"Thank you for your understanding, Mister Lu."
Lu Yin didn't think too much about it. He didn't know that so many acquaintances had come to the seventh pillar.
After entering the seventh pillar, Lu Yin casually sat on a mountain peak. He didn't observe anyone, and no one disturbed him.
Half a month later, the earth trembled. The Tomorrow Beast roared at the sky and pulled out his brown skin. His heart beat more and more violently.
The drums suddenly sounded, and the sound was so loud that even the Tomorrow Beast couldn't cover it.
Lu Yin looked into the distance and saw the people of the Qionan Clan beating the drums.
Even if they weren't going to battle, they still needed to beat the drums?
Boom!
The seventh pillar slowly rose as the Tomorrow Beast lifted it up. Then, the ground trembled even more violently, and a terrifying power came from under his feet.
Lu Yin watched calmly and experienced the Tomorrow Beast's power. Although it wasn't as strong as him, it was very violent and had a primitive feeling.
He didn't expect to leave with the seventh pillar so soon. He had experienced the departure of the sixth pillar before, and now, he was leaving too.
There was no Imperial God to send him off. After all, this wasn't an expedition.
Under the beating of the drums, the seventh pillar was suddenly bounced up and turned into a meteor that pierced through the universe. It instantly disappeared into the endless darkness. Lu Yin looked back and widened his eyes. Where was the Mother Tree?
Lu Yin had thought that he would be able to see the entirety of the Nine Firmaments Universe, but all he saw was a constantly twisting region of space and a huge Night Pillar. The Night Pillar had also disappeared after the seventh Night Pillar had entered the Core Space. As he moved further and further away from the Nine Firmaments Universe, all he could see was the twisting region of space.
It was an indescribable feeling. It was like a pool of boiling water, full of disorder and destruction.
How could this be?
Gu Duanke arrived. "Sir, this is the first time you've seen this scene."
Lu Yin's expression was solemn. In the distance, the universe gradually became indistinct. The Tomorrow Beast's strength with the help of the brown skin was greater than a man-made springboard. "Is this hiding?"
Gu Duanke nodded and said, "That's right. Hide, hide the Nine Clouds Universe, hide the three universes, hide the traces of human beings."
"The distance of a square inch is boundless. Even Eternal Life Realm experts can't see the end of it. No one knows what kind of cosmic civilization will appear. Sir, you should know about the springboard of the spiritualized universe, Torch City. That springboard is not naturally formed in the universe. Shangyu Ceng said that he came from a foreign cosmic civilization. The purpose of building that springboard is definitely not simple."
"The spiritualized universe knows how to hide and doesn't use a springboard. My Nine Heavens Universe knows how terrifying the distance is. After all, we have seen far more than the three universes."
"Within a square inch, all civilizations must remain hidden. Whoever is exposed will die."
Lu Yin looked at him, "Like Lan Yuzhou."
Gu Duanke and Lu Yin looked at each other. "That's right. The Orchid Universe has been exposed, so it has to die. If it doesn't die, it will attract the attention of other civilizations. Mi Jin Yu once said that the most powerful weapon in the universe is self-awareness."
Lu Yin looked at Gu Duanke in a daze. Self-awareness, yes, self-awareness, this was the most powerful weapon.
Gu Duanke looked at the dark starry sky and sighed, "No one can guarantee that their civilization is invincible in the universe. Even if my Nine Clouds Universe gives birth to a few more Shangyu Gods, they won't dare to guarantee it. The universe is vast and endless. The only thing we can guarantee is that we can survive and destroy the invading enemies. That's enough."
"Hiding is not a sign of weakness. Only when you know how to hide can you exist."
Lu Yin praised, "Mi Jin Yu saw the universe clearly."
Gu Duanke was melancholy, "It's a pity that he still died. Mi Jin Yu has done too many things for my Nine Clouds Universe. The Pillar of the Nine Clouds, the method of arrangement and expedition, including the Heavenly Rope, were all created by Mi Jin Yu. If Mi Jin Yu was still alive, my Nine Clouds Universe would definitely be different."
Lu Yin was surprised, "Both the Pillar of the Nine Clouds and the Heavenly Rope came from Mi Jin Yu?"
Gu Duanke nodded, "There are four Shangyu Gods in my Nine Clouds Universe. Qing Lian Shangyu is the oldest, Xue Ta Shangyu is the best at killing and has the most expeditions. Jingmen Shangyu is the protector of the Nine Clouds Universe, and Mi Jin Yu is like the brain of the Nine Clouds Universe. The Nine Clouds Universe can be what it is today because of Mi Jin Yu."
"Without Mi Jin Shang Yu, the Continent of the Nine Clouds wouldn't exist today, and the cultivators of the Continent of the Nine Clouds wouldn't be able to travel freely in the Four Regions. The Celestial Cables saved cultivators a lot of time. There are many other things that come from Mi Jin Shang Yu. If Mister Lu stays in the Continent of the Nine Clouds for a long time, you'll find that many things have something to do with Mi Jin Shang Yu."
"How did Mi Jin Yu die?" Lu Yin asked.
Gu Duanke shook his head, "I don't know."
It was obvious that Gu Duanke respected Mi Jin Yu very much.
Lu Yin didn't know much about Mi Jin Yu, but just hearing this was enough to make him respect this person.
The Heavenly Rope made it convenient for countless cultivators. Nine Clouds Universe allowed the Nine Clouds Universe to hide. Was it the method of expedition?
It also came from Mi Jin Yu. That slingshot was really a wonderful idea.
When he first saw the Heavenly Rope, Lu Yin felt that the Nine Clouds Universe had a kind of unconstrained thinking, as if the entire universe was a playground.
Now, it seemed that this kind of thinking came from Mi Jin Yu.
"How long does it take to reach the Lan Universe?"
Gu Duanke said, "Three years."
"So fast?" Lu Yin was surprised.
"If it's not fast, how can it be destroyed? It's because the Lan Universe is too close to my Nine Clouds Universe that it must be destroyed. Otherwise, its light will illuminate the Nine Clouds Universe."
Lu Yin calculated. With the current speed that surpassed the artificial springboard, three years was equivalent to going from the spiritualized universe to Torch City.
This distance was definitely not far. "Is the universe moving?"
Gu Duanke looked at Lu Yin, "Yes."
Lu Yin sighed. Sure enough, it was moving?
Otherwise, at such a close distance, the Nine Clouds Universe would have destroyed the Lan Universe long ago. As far as he knew, the Lan Universe was destroyed not long ago. At least after the appearance of the three universes, the consciousness universe was not destroyed even though it was so far away. Instead, it was used as a barrier. The Lan Universe was destroyed not only because of itself, but also because it was moving.
It was getting closer and closer to the Nine Clouds Universe. Moving meant that the Nine Clouds Universe would be exposed. This was the reason why the Nine Clouds Universe had to take action.
But how could a universe move?
Lu Yin asked this question, but Gu Duanke could not give him an answer. If he wanted an answer, he could only ask Immortal Yu.
The Immortal Realm and the Great Circle of Crossing Ku Er seemed to only have a difference of one realm, but the difference was like heaven and earth.
This was not just a gap in combat power, but also a gap in vision and perception.
The Great Circle of Crossing Ku Er's cognitive limit was the universe one was in. If one wanted to go to other universes, they would need to rely on external forces. Otherwise, even if they went from the Nine Clouds Universe to the Lan Universe, the time would be incomparably long.
However, the Immortal Realm was different. Their cognitive limit was expanded to the distance of a square inch.
A long distance was no longer long for them.
It was like a person living in ancient times, riding a war horse, and another person had long been in a spaceship. They were two different concepts.
Wait, Lu Yin suddenly thought of a problem.
The Nine Clouds Universe could not be moving, right?
His eyes flickered as he kept thinking. Gu Duanke said goodbye to him. Lu Yin said, "Wait, how does the Night Pillar return?"
Gu Duanke said, "Mi Jin Shangyu arranged a spiritual treasure array on the Night Pillar. It can recycle the power of the Tomorrow Beast. When the power is equal to the power of the Lan Universe, the recycling will be balanced. Releasing the spiritual treasure array will send the Night Pillar back to the Nine Clouds Universe."
Lu Yin understood. "Mi Jin Shangyu is the most powerful Lockbreaker in the Nine Clouds Universe."
"Of course. It's a pity that Mi Jin Shangyu died before the Garbatian Universe appeared. Otherwise, attacking the Garbatian Universe would not have been so troublesome. Mi Jin Shangyu would have been able to directly break the Garbatian Universe's Immovable Sky Concealment Array and make the Garbatian Universe collapse by itself." Gu Duanke sighed and left.
Lu Yin once again looked at the Nine Clouds Universe that could no longer be seen clearly. He stepped out of the distance of a square inch, and his vision widened again. It was different from when he stepped into the distance of three universes.
At that time, his understanding of the distance of a square inch was limited to three universes.
Now, he felt a sense of broadening.
He had truly walked into the endless dark crisis. What he encountered and saw were not necessarily what his predecessors could imagine.
He only hoped that he would not encounter the civilization that would cause the Nine Clouds Universe to have a deadly crisis.
A few months had passed since he left the Nine Clouds Universe. On this day, someone came to find Lu Yin. It was a handsome man.
"Junior Brother, it's better to meet you in person. I'm Jing Lian, your Senior Brother." The man greeted Lu Yin with a bright smile.
Lu Yin looked at the man. "I haven't been apprenticed to Ye Hai yet. I can't be called Junior Brother."
Jing Lian smiled. "It's just a matter of time. Well, we're going to the Lan Universe. Ye Hai will have only the two of us. We won't be lonely along the way …"
Jing Lian was very friendly. He pulled Lu Yin and talked for a long time. This person was enthusiastic and came from Ye Hai, so Lu Yin could not refuse.
"By the way, I've talked to Supreme Venerable Lan Ye. I have to say, Junior Brother, you're too reckless. You actually provoked the entire Nine Clouds Universe. There are many masters in the Nine Clouds Universe. Even if you're invincible, who knows who will break through to the Eternal Life Realm?
Let me tell you, Supreme Venerable Lan Ye has a high chance of breaking through to the Eternal Life Realm. When the Seventh Night Pillar returned more than ten years ago, the Supreme Venerable personally gave Supreme Venerable Lan Ye a place to watch the restart of the Lan Universe. That's quite impressive. It means that even the Supreme Venerable thinks highly of him. "
"You said you offended him. He's not your opponent now. But when he steps into the Eternal Life Realm, can you still defeat him?
But don't worry. With Senior Brother and Ye Hai's face, that old man won't dare to trouble you. Even if he breaks through to the Eternal Life Realm, you should be polite and respectful when you see him. Master will protect you … "
Lu Yin was puzzled. "Supreme Venerable Lan Ye belongs to the Seventh Night Pillar. Does the Supreme Venerable need to give him a place to watch?"
