The spikes came from behind the sea of insects. It was a monster with eight arms and sharp fangs. It was the Green Immortal, and its name was Ci You. Ci You could turn the spikes in its body into arrows and shoot them out of its arms. Its vision was much greater than that of a cultivator at the top of the Du Ku Ai layer. It could fold empty space and use empty space as a string.
Any creature targeted by Ci You couldn't escape from being killed. Only something with a large area of effect could block the attacks.
There wasn't only one Ci You. A nest of insects had come to the area where Ci You was and absorbed the advantages of the creatures there. That was how Ci You was born. At the same time, there were insects in the nest that absorbed the advantages of the creatures there and gave birth to insects similar to Ci You. They were called Ci You Bugs. They could fold empty space and use empty space as a string to kill all creatures.
There were eighteen Ci You Bugs. They had already caused the Eighth Night Pillar to suffer heavy losses. If the Eighth Night Pillar hadn't used his weapon, the Blood-Red Pavilion, the humans would have already lost the battle.
The strongest cultivators had been assassinated, and the others had been reduced to cannon fodder.
"Brother, we can't fight anymore. Let's retreat!" shouted Gan Mo. He ground his teeth and looked at the sea of insects.
The Ci You Bugs were extremely strong, and nobody could find them when they were hidden. They could only be live targets.
Each spike could fold empty space. They could kill cultivators at the top of the Du Ku Ai layer. The Blood-Red Pavilion had blocked them too many times.
A middle-aged man was standing in the Blood-Red Pavilion. His name was Xue Lou, and he was the Eighth Night Pillar's leader. He was also the Great Imperial Disciple of the Blood-Red Tower. People called him Blood on the World. He was the strongest Imperial Disciple of the Blood-Red Tower.
He had created the Eight Strikes of the Blood-Red Tower. He had once killed two cultivators at the top of the Du Ku Ai layer.
After that, the Eighth Night Pillar had meditated in seclusion for a long time. He hadn't appeared for a very long time. His legends had disappeared in the Continent of the Nine Clouds, but once Xue Lou came out, his name would still spread throughout the Continent of the Nine Clouds. He and Qing Xing were of the same generation.
…
Four degrees west of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, a monster was painting.
The monster had eighteen eyes on its head. Its head was one meter high, but its body was less than half a meter. It was very uncoordinated.
Nine tentacles grew out of its body, and each tentacle held a brush. It drew different scenes on the nine canvases. There were people, there was the void, and there was also the Xi. One of the scenes was the Third Night Pillar.
The monster was dressed in formal attire, and there was a cup of tea beside the canvas. Steam rose slowly, and soothing music covered the noise of the battlefield.
It was very elegant.
That's right, this monster gave off an elegant vibe. Even though it looked ferocious and terrifying, it still looked very elegant.
It was called Painted Yan, a Green Immortal. It did not like killing and only liked to paint. The world in the painting was its world. Of course, using painting to replace reality and having fun was also its hobby.
The battlefield was the reality that had been replaced.
In front of the canvas, there was a boundless sea of bugs fighting with humans. Blood splattered across the starry sky.
Hua Yan raised his brush and crossed out a painting he had just completed. At the same time, a Primordial realm expert's body was ripped to pieces on the battlefield. If one looked closely, they would discover that his body had been ripped in the exact same direction as Hua Yan had crossed out the painting. There was no difference at all.
Very soon, another painting was completed. Hua Yan stared at a corner of the battlefield. The person in the painting was a woman.
With a wave of his brush, the woman's head and body were separated. On the battlefield, the woman's head was directly sent flying. She could not resist at all.
Hua Yan raised his brush again, and the space became dark. It had been painted black by the brush. The dark starry sky swallowed up everything.
After destroying three paintings in a row, Hua Yan was in a good mood. He tore off the three canvases and replaced them with new ones. He had countless canvases prepared for the countless creatures in the starry sky.
Suddenly, Hua Yan disappeared, along with the canvases and the cup of tea.
The space collapsed and a figure walked out. It was the head of the Third Night Pillar, the publicly acknowledged ruler of strength in the Continent of the Nine Clouds, Carrying Heaven.
Carrying Heaven clenched his fists and gazed into the distance. There, Hua Yan turned his head and looked at him. One of his tentacles raised a cup of tea, and the other eight began to paint at the same time. In the blink of an eye, half of Carrying Heaven had been painted. Carrying Heaven narrowed his eyes and took a step forward. He raised his fist and punched out. Hua Yan disappeared and the space collapsed.
"How long can you hide?" Carrying Heaven grit his teeth and casually waved his hand. A terrifying power tore through the void and swallowed up the sea of insects.
…
In the Nine Clouds Universe, at the Startled Sparrow Terrace, Startled Gate Shangyu's expression was calm. The appearance of the hive civilization had caused the Nine Clouds Universe to lose its calm. However, they had long since predicted that this day would come.
Too many civilizations in the universe had been destroyed. If they could destroy others, others could destroy them as well.
It would be great if one or two more Eternal Realm cultivators could be born.
He Fangshan had already investigated the situation in the four battlefields. He Fangshan had not gone to the consciousness universe, and Lu Yin had already sent reinforcements. The battlefield outside the spiritualized universe was fine, but the people He Fangshan had sent to investigate the other two battlefields had disappeared.
He Fangshan had investigated the universe, and it was normal for people to disappear. However, they were facing a war right now.
…
In the consciousness universe, the One Leaf Lotus floated in and headed straight for Yi Tian Que.
Lu Yin was apprehensive, and he hoped that nothing had happened to the progenitor.
Not long after, the lotus stopped in the void. Lu Yin looked around. Where was Yi Tian Que?
Where had Yi Tian Que gone?
This was the correct direction, but Yi Tian Que was gone.
Lu Yin's consciousness spread out and searched the entire consciousness universe, but he could not find Yi Tian Que. The consciousness universe was far smaller than the spiritualized universe, the Nine Heavens Universe, and the Tian Yuan Universe. However, Yi Tian Que had disappeared.
Lu Yin's expression turned ugly. How could Yi Tian Que disappear?
What about the progenitor?
Was it related to Mo Shang?
Had she gone to a parallel universe?
Or was there some external interference?
Yu Jing and the rest looked at each other. "Mr. Lu, as far as I know, Yi Tian Que can be moved."
Lu Yin said, "There is no Yi Tian Que in the entire consciousness universe."
"Could it have gone to a parallel universe?" Jue Ling guessed.
This seemed to be the only reasonable explanation, but who had moved Yi Tian Que?
The 13 Celestial Phenomena were gone, and Mo Shang was trapped in Yi Tian Que. Who else could have moved Yi Tian Que?
If Yi Tian Que had been moved in the main universe, it was still reasonable. However, if it was in a parallel universe, then it must have been an external interference.
In the current universe, where else could there be an external force that could have interfered with Yi Tian Que?
It was impossible for it to be in the Tian Yuan Universe, as no one had come to the consciousness universe. It was also impossible for it to be in the spiritualized universe. The experts had either died or left, and the last few had been dragged to the Tian Yuan Universe. Even Sang Tian could not be found.
Even Sang Tian could not have interfered with Yi Tian Que, unless it was Grandmaster Grass.
Lu Yin tried to break through the various parallel universes to search, but it was useless. There were too many parallel universes, and finding Yi Tian Que was like finding a needle in a haystack. Helpless, he could only give up.
There was no time to waste. The war between the hives could erupt at any time. Lu Yin sighed deeply. He could only leave behind traces in the void. If the progenitor was still in the consciousness universe, she might be able to see it. Otherwise, Lu Yin looked at the deep starry sky. No matter what the progenitor had done, they would have to pay the price, even if they were in the Eternal Realm.
The One Leaf Green Lotus turned around and headed towards Torch City. It quickly left the consciousness universe.
…
Lu Yin's heart was heavy during the journey. No one disturbed him, and he only recovered a few days later. At the same time, he learned that Yu Jing had used Heaven and Earth to wipe out the sea of insects.
When Lu Yin found out, Yu Jing was a little embarrassed.
Back then, Lu Yin had specially gone to the Yu family, and Yu Jing had told him that the Yu family's strongest spell was the Moon and Sparse Stars. They had concealed the secret of the Array Scroll Formation. Now that they had used Heaven and Earth, Yu Jing was afraid that Lu Yin would find trouble with them, so he had specially asked for forgiveness.
Lu Yin did not care. "It's fine. It's all the same."
These words made Yu Jing feel complicated, and he felt insulted. Was it the same?
The Moon and Sparse Stars were completely different from Heaven and Earth, especially since Heaven and Earth was a large-scale attack. How could they be the same?
But to Lu Yin, it was the same.
Yes, it was the same.
He sighed and sat back in his seat.
He had thought that Heaven and Earth were amazing since it was one of the strongest spirit treasure arrays in the Garnery Sky Universe. Now, it seemed that they had underestimated this universe.
Although the Garnery Sky Universe was more difficult for the Nine Heavens Universe, there were no Eternal Realms in the Garnery Sky Universe. It was not on the same level as the hives, so Heaven and Earth naturally could not reach that level.
Jue Ling saw Yu Jing asking for forgiveness and thought about it before finding Lu Yin. "Thank you for saving us in time, Sir. Otherwise, Ancestor Jue Huang would have died tragically."
Lu Yin said, "I'm here to help. You don't have to thank me."
"Sir, my Jue family also has a foundation called the Immovable Sky Concealment Array.
Xue Ta Shangyu was injured by the Immovable Sky Concealment Array when he attacked the Garnery Sky Concealment Array. "Jue Ling confessed, but she was still a little nervous.
Not far away, Jue Rou also came over and looked at Lu Yin carefully.
Lu Yin looked at Jue Ling. "I know."
Jue Ling was surprised. "How did you know?"
Lu Yin did not care. "The Lingbao Chamber of Commerce is also your Jue family's. Is it very secretive?"
Jue Ling was stunned. Not secretive?
At least for so many years, the Cheng family and Yu family had guessed it but could not prove it. The outside world was also completely unaware.
She understood Yu Jing's feeling of being insulted. In this person's eyes, their foundation seemed to be worthless.
But that was the Immovable Sky Concealment Array that even Xue Ta Shangyu was injured. Why was it worthless?
"In order to protect their position in the Western Region, the three major clans have harmed many people openly and secretly. You think you are doing it secretly, but in fact, there are many eyes watching you. Some people only need to give them time to suppress you. What's so strange about that?" Lu Yin said lightly.
Jue Ling blurted out, "Li Guo."
Lu Yin looked at her. "In the future, restrain yourself. Don't be so overbearing. It's better not to think too highly of yourself."
Jue Ling was speechless. She wanted to say who could be more overbearing than you?
But in the end, she did not dare to say it.
"This Immovable Sky Concealment Array is just a shell. The stronger the Lingbao Array is, the more powerful it is. Shouldn't the Unification of Heaven and Earth be hidden in it?" Lu Yin asked.
Jue Ling looked at Yu Jing.
Yu Jing quickly said, "Yes, the reason why the Garnery Sky Concealment Array could injure Xue Ta Shangyu was because the Immovable Sky Concealment Array hid too many Lingbao Arrays similar to the Unification of Heaven and Earth, which caused a qualitative change. In fact, the Immovable Sky Concealment Array itself is not powerful."
Jue Ling raised her eyebrows. "The Unification of Heaven and Earth is far from being able to injure an Immortal."
Yu Jing did not refute...
