Although this person could not see the phantom spears, he had the ability to dodge them and had been hiding his strength all this time.
"How much?" Lu Yin asked, but his movements were not slow as he reached out to grab the three spears.
Northgate Lie panicked, but he did not have time to speak. He raised a hand to attack Lu Yin, but he was slower than Lu Yin, so he could only attack. Lu Yin did not dare to be careless, and he turned around to exchange blows with Northgate Lie. A terrifying gale swept out, causing the ground to crack apart and startling countless parasites.
At that moment, the two elders from the Blaze Realm arrived and tried to get past Lu Yin and Northgate Lie to snatch the spears.
Lu Yin and Northgate Lie separated at the same time, each of them dealing with an elder.
The elder from the Blaze Realm anxiously shouted, "Northgate Lie, you dare oppose the Blaze Realm?"
"Blaze Realm, you dare oppose the Ten Arbiters Council?" Lu Yin shouted back.
The elder was furious, and he raised his hand to summon a flaming lion with four-lined battle force, causing the temperature to rise.
In the distance, the remaining people were not to be outdone, and they all rushed forward in an attempt to snatch the three spears.
From underground, the parasites twisted their bodies and rushed out, causing the scene to become chaotic.
Some of the hidden powerhouses unleashed their full strength, and at this moment, besides Lu Yin, the other Limiteers could not even get close.
The intense battle caused the star energy to become chaotic. Not too far away, on the altar, the five spears trembled for a moment before phantom spears shot out one after another, instantly killing a dozen people.
Lu Yin grabbed the elder from the Blaze Realm by the arm and raised a palm. Five-lined battle force erupted as Thirty Stacks viciously slapped out.
Originally, the two elders had needed to work together to fight against Lu Yin, but now that he was alone, the elder wanted to retreat, but it was too late. Lu Yin's palm landed on his back, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood and die.
The other elder from the Blaze Realm was defeated by Northgate Lie, but Northgate Lie did not kill him.
A phantom spear flashed past, and Northgate Lie hurriedly dodged to the side. He looked up and saw that Lu Yin had already arrived beside the three spears and was about to grab them.
Northgate Lie grew anxious.
Just as Lu Yin was about to grab the spears, a sense of danger suddenly appeared. A pair of cold, emotionless eyes appeared in front of him, followed by a violent wave of energy that rushed towards Lu Yin's face.
Lu Yin dodged with Flash and then raised his leg to kick out. There was a thump, and a figure was sent flying back more than ten meters.
Lu Yin looked over and saw a stranger, but he was very strong. With a whoosh, the figure attacked again, completely unfazed by Lu Yin's attack.
Very few people could ignore Lu Yin's attacks. Although he did not use the Overlaying Stacks Technique, Lu Yin's physical strength was something that even an elite Explorer would not be able to withstand. However, Lu Yin continued to attack as if nothing had happened.
Lu Yin refused to give up. He used Flash Step and fused his Overlaying Stacks into his leg, kicking out once more.
The silhouette's eyes were cold as he growled. His eyes suddenly turned scarlet as he punched out.
Lu Yin's pupils shrank; it was a corpse king.
Bang
A berserk attack exploded out like a sudden clap of thunder. A gigantic crack in the void flew out like a bolt of lightning, affecting quite a few cultivators. Even Northgate Lie, who had just rushed over, was shocked and hurriedly stopped.
In the distance, Lily Anne and the others were overwhelmed with shock. Where did such a powerful expert come from?
The Corpse King was forced back by Lu Yin's kick once more. Its scarlet eyes closed, as it did not want to be seen. However, it did not approach Lu Yin again.
Lu Yin looked at the Corpse King fearfully. To be honest, he was a little apprehensive of the Neohuman Alliance, especially after his recent encounter with the gray-eyed Corpse King. The power that the Corpse King had displayed had terrified him. If this Corpse King in front of him could also use the Corpse King Transformation, then he would be in trouble.
One cultivator after another mysteriously died as the phantom spears continued to attack with increasing frequency. Quite a few people had already withdrawn from the fight.
Northgate Lie sensed the danger and hurriedly dodged. He panted heavily as he looked at Lu Yin, unwilling to give up.
Lu Yin waved his hand and stored the three spears into his cosmic ring. He exhaled; he had obtained them.
Countless parasites surged out from underground.
The centipede's body shook even more violently.
Lu Yin did not want to stay any longer, as he could not guarantee that Northgate Taisui would not kill him.
"Seventh Bro, let's go. I've memorized it," the monkey said. When they had snatched the three spears, Lu Yin had asked the monkey to use his innate gift of shadow to approach the corpse and record the black text. He had thought that it would be easy, but he had not expected the monkey to take so long to memorize it.
Lu Yin glanced over. Eh, where's the text?
"Don't look. I wiped it," the monkey said excitedly.
"Why did you wipe it?"
"The more people who know about it, the less valuable the text is. You don't understand. This is called the rarer something is, the more valuable it is."
"Nobody noticed it, right?" Lu Yin asked, as he agreed with the monkey's words.
"Don't worry. These people will just think that the text was swept away by the shockwaves of the battle. Aside from me, there shouldn't be anyone else who has memorized it," the monkey said confidently.
"Let's go!" Lu Yin barked, and he quickly retraced his steps.
Northgate Lie shouted, "Brother Lu, you can't take it all for yourself. The Northgate family is willing to pay a high price for it."
Jared did not have time to think about how Lu Yin had killed a powerhouse from the Blaze Realm, and he also shouted, "My Blaze Realm is also willing to pay a high price for it. At the same time, we'll protect Brother Lu's life and allow you to safely return to the Outerverse."
"I-"
…
Quite a few people spoke up, as they all wanted to obtain the spears.
Lu Yin ignored them and quickly rushed out. However, he still turned back to look at the Corpse King, but it had already disappeared without a trace.
Lu Yin felt a chill run down his spine, as the Neohuman Alliance's Corpse King was more bizarre than anyone else's.
The tremors grew more intense, and the attacks from the phantom spears became more frequent. Many people had already died.
With Lu Yin's speed, no one could keep up with him once he charged out at full speed, not even Northgate Lie.
Not long after, Lu Yin returned to the intersection between the legs and the torso. There, he saw a group of people anxiously waiting for him, including the middle-aged Lockbreaker who was anxiously lockbreaking.
Lu Yin was delighted when he saw this. Without him, this group of people would not be able to leave. Northgate Taisui had already placed the centipede's body inside, and he would not allow anyone else to enter. In other words, the only person who could help these people leave was Lu Yin.
The middle-aged Lockbreaker was delighted when he saw Lu Yin. "Mr. Lu, please help us get everyone out of here as soon as possible."
Lu Yin looked into the distance and saw a vast expanse of white approaching. Sure enough, there were parasites appearing in another direction as well, and there were even more. Perhaps the entire centipede's body was filled with parasites.
"If you want to leave, you have to agree to one condition!" Lu Yin shouted.
"What is it?" someone hurriedly asked.
Lu Yin's expression turned solemn. "Everyone must swear that the moment you leave the centipede's body, you will disguise yourselves as Lu Yin. No one is allowed to stay, and you must leave the Northline Flowzone immediately."
The crowd was not stupid, and when they heard Lu Yin's condition, they immediately knew that he had either obtained something good and was afraid that it would be stolen by the Northline Flowzone, or that he had offended someone. However, no one cared, and they all agreed.
Soon, everyone finished swearing their oaths.
Lu Yin walked over to the middle-aged Lockbreaker's side and began to lockbreak.
Not long after, Northgate Lie was the first to arrive. He immediately rushed over when he saw Lu Yin, but he was stopped by the others. "Brother Northgate, no matter what happened over there, Lu Yin is currently opening a path for everyone to escape. Brother Northgate, please put aside your grudges for now."
Northgate Lie frowned and rushed out again. If he wanted to take action, no one could stop him.
However, before he could get very far, he suddenly stopped and looked in front of him in shock. "Why are you here?"
Lu Yin, who was in the middle of lockbreaking, turned around. Was there someone here who could stop Northgate Lie?
The others were shocked as well. Northgate Lie was an expert on the Top 100 Rankings, but there was actually someone who could stop him, and this person was also very young.
"If there's any grudges, let's talk outside," the youth who had blocked Northgate Lie said coldly. This person's appearance was ordinary, and he was dressed simply. He did not carry any weapons, and there was nothing special about him. He looked just like an ordinary person, but his appearance caused Northgate Lie to feel apprehensive.
Northgate Lie's expression turned serious. "Do you think you can stop me?
Qin Chen, you place too much importance on the Top 100 Rankings. "
Many people behind him cried out in surprise. Everyone had heard of Qin Chen before. He was ranked eighty-eighth on the Top 100 Rankings, and he was known as the Heavenly Network's Qin Chen.
Lu Yin was astonished, as another expert from the Top 100 Rankings had appeared. There were far more than a hundred Top 100 Rankings in the universe when including the Flowzones. On average, one Top 100 Rankings was not enough for each Weave. Even if the Outerverse Weaves were not included, there were still more than a hundred Flowzones of various sizes in the Innerverse. The chances of encountering an expert from the Top 100 Rankings were far too low, but two of them had suddenly appeared here.
No matter what Northgate Lie said, he did not act in the end. If the Top 100 Rankings were meaningless, then no one would fight over it. Since Qin Chen was ranked ahead of Northgate Lie, there had to be a reason for it.
Lily Anne and the others soon arrived, and when they found out that the person blocking them was an expert on the Top 100 Rankings, they were similarly shocked, and no one dared to act rashly.
"Brother Lu, think carefully. Even if you leave the centipede's body, you're still in the Northline Flowzone. With Ancestor Northgate here, do you think you can escape?"
Northgate Lie did not care about being exposed, and he shouted directly. This was the Northline Flowzone, and Northgate Taisui's existence gave him the greatest confidence.
Lu Yin did not answer.
On the other side, He Zhong's eyes flashed. Had Lu Yin obtained something?
"Lu Yin, there are some things that you can't take away. You better be sensible!" Northgate Gang shouted.
Lu Yin frowned. "Everyone, the insect wave is about to arrive, and these people are blocking everyone's escape route. With their strength, they can leave, but most people won't be able to. Do as you see fit."
Lu Yin's words caused Northgate Lie and the others to look at him with hostility, and even many of the people who had been chasing Lu Yin blocked his path.
"Brother Northgate, if you have any grievances, we can talk about them after we leave. You don't want everyone to die here, right?"
"That's right, Brother Northgate. Please give us some face."
"Brother Northgate …"
…
Northgate Lie's gaze turned cold. "Fine, I won't attack you while we're inside the centipede's body. Brother Lu, be smart and make your own decision. This is the Northline Flowzone."
To Northgate Lie, handing over the spear to his family was completely different from asking his family to steal it. However, there was no way for him to steal it now. Lu Yin's stubbornness and stupidity had exceeded his expectations, so he could only give up. But just as he had said, this was the Northline Flowzone, and Lu Yin could not escape.
Lily Anne did not understand. Lu Yin was not stupid, so why would he not hand over the spear? There was no way he could escape.
Qin Chen looked at Lu Yin. What had this person obtained?
"Seventh Bro, are you sure you can escape?
That's an old monster with a power level in the hundreds of thousands, "the monkey questioned.
Lu Yin calmly replied, "I can't escape, but handing over the spear to Northgate Lie and the Northgate family are two different things."
"What do you mean?" The monkey did not understand.
Lu Yin did not explain. If he was so easily forced to hand over the spear, then no one would care about him in the future. He wanted everyone to know that he was not someone who could be easily bullied. Even if he walked down a path of no return, he still had the ability to survive.
Against an old monster with a power level in the hundreds of thousands, Astral-10 could not be relied on. He also did not want to expose his relationship with Highsage Leon. Thus, there was only one way out. But before that, he would do his best to escape. Even if someone wanted to capture him, that old monster would have to put in some effort. He wanted everyone to know that Lu Yin would not be threatened and that he would be amenable to coaxing, but not coercion.
