Wu Er thought that Hua Wuzui was asleep, but she was already awake and had seen Wu Er.
Furthermore, all the cultivators here who were cooperating with Ur to fuse with the spirit seed knew her name. This meant that these cultivators would never be able to leave, even if they succeeded in fusing with the spirit seed.
"Lu Yin" turned his head to the side.
Suddenly, a pair of eyes appeared and met his gaze.
"Lu Yin's" pupils shrank as he looked at the bloodshot eyes of an old woman, Wu Er.
"I said, don't move," Wu Er said, her voice hoarse and unpleasant to the ears.
"Lu Yin" silently turned his head and did not move.
Wu Er stared at him for a while, then turned and walked towards the hanging coffin not far away. That coffin belonged to Wu Er, and it was red. It was different from "Lu Yin's" and looked more demonic and terrifying.
Wu Er came in front of the red coffin and grabbed it. Lu Yin thought that she was going to enter, but she looked back at "Lu Yin" and tore open the void, pulling the red coffin with her as she disappeared.
"Lu Yin's" expression changed; he had been exposed.
The outside world was wantonly attacking the Mang people, and this place had also received the news. Wu Er was very cautious and immediately ran when she sensed that something was wrong.
The black tree shook, and the surrounding hanging coffins shattered. The Mang cultivators inside fled in all directions.
Lu Yin subconsciously looked for Wei Si, but the owner of this body did not have her. Helpless, he could only use this body's strength to attack the spot where the sunlight had pierced through.
Scarlet energy shot into the sky.
On the Startled Sparrow Terrace, Startled Gate Shangyu suddenly looked over and took a step forward. His figure disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was above Lu Yin.
"Senior, stop them," "Lu Yin" said, but the owner of this body could not speak clearly.
However, it did not matter even if they were delayed for a while. These Mang cultivators were far inferior to Startled Gate Shangyu.
Lu Yin could not figure out why Wu Er did not take these Mang cultivators and run. There was only one reason: she thought that the real person would be Startled Gate Shangyu. She was afraid that she would not be able to escape, let alone take these cultivators with her.
Although the Mang cultivators were not afraid of death, they were not very bright. Otherwise, they would have taken advantage of the time that Lu Yin had spent reporting to the Alarmed Gate to tear open the void and escape to a parallel universe. They would not have been caught so easily.
"Lu Yin" rushed into the door, and all the cultivators caught by the Alarmed Gate's Imperial General were thrown into the door as well, including Lu Yin himself.
Lu Yin's consciousness returned, and he controlled the cultivators to extract the scarlet energy.
It took quite a while before it ended.
Jingmen Shangyu had been waiting.
"Thank you, senior," Lu Yin said gratefully as he watched the last Unbridled cultivator melt away.
Jingmen Shangyu smiled faintly. "We should be the ones thanking you. We have never caught so many Wuwei cultivators at once. This is considered as destroying their headquarters."
Lu Yin nodded. "That's about right. There are three parts to it. The first is Zhi, which does nothing but guard the entrance."
"The second part is the cultivators of Wang Wei who are scattered in the Continent of the Nine Clouds. They contact people who work for Wang Wei and collect spiritual seeds."
"The third part is the place just now. I don't know if that place is the most hidden place of Wang Wei, but it should be similar."
"In fact, since Qi Xu's death, Wang Wei has only existed in name. Guarding the door and fusing with the spiritual seeds are all tasks given by Qi Xu. They do these tasks without any purpose."
Jingmen Shangyu said, "But if the Unknowns contact Wang Wei, it will be different. You didn't find that door, but the Unknowns can open it at any time."
Lu Yin agreed. "So when the door is destroyed, if the Unknowns don't plan to attack the human civilization immediately, Wang Wei still has a meaning to exist. They can bring another door, but if they want to attack the human civilization immediately, Wang Wei has no meaning to exist."
"They can only be considered as cannon fodder."
"No, there is another meaning."
"The method of fusing with spiritual seeds," Jingmen Shangyu said.
Lu Yin nodded, and his face was solemn. "The method of fusing with spiritual seeds only exists in the Continent of the Nine Clouds. If the Unknowns don't cultivate with spiritual seeds, then the method of fusing with spiritual seeds doesn't exist in the outside world. This is why Wang Wei has been trying for years, but only a few people have succeeded. If Wang Wei brings this method to the Unknowns."
He was silent, not knowing what the consequences would be.
Would the Unknowns care about this method?
No one knew.
If the Unknowns were strong enough to ignore the human civilization and lead other stronger civilizations to destroy the human race, then this method should be useless to them. But it was also possible that this method could help the Unknowns to increase their general combat power.
No matter what, this method could not be lost to the Unknowns.
Lu Yin and Jingmen Shangyu looked at each other. "I will do my best to find Wu Er."
"Wu Er, is she the Wang Wei cultivator who escaped?"
"Yes, she is the one who is experimenting with fusing with spiritual seeds."
Jingmen Shangyu sighed. "I didn't expect her to still be alive."
Lu Yin was surprised. "Senior, you know her?"
Jingmen Shangyu nodded. "She is Qiu Xu's disciple."
Lu Yin understood. No wonder, then his guess was right. The method of fusing with spiritual seeds came from Qiu Xu and was passed to Wu Er. But Qiu Xu was dead, and there was no time to verify it, so Wu Er realized it.
"This Wu Er is not easy to deal with. You have to be careful. Before Qiu Xu died, she was the strongest in the Continent of the Nine Clouds. Unfortunately, there was a gap between Qiu Xu's death and her disappearance, and my rise. Otherwise, I would have challenged her the most at that time."
"Compared to her, even Qing Xing is one generation behind."
"Senior Mijin Shangyu did not live as long as Qiu Xu?"
"That is not the case. Mijin Shangyu is not suitable to accept disciples, and he only likes to create his own cultivation methods. Qiu Xu has her own goals. She took in many disciples, but they all died with her. Only this Wu Er disappeared and has not appeared for so many years. We thought that she was dead, but we didn't expect her to be hiding all this time. Her endurance is really ruthless."
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed. To be able to endure for so many years, she was indeed ruthless.
She was well aware of the existence of the karmic celestial phenomenon and had no way to escape, so she had been hiding underground.
Such a person could not be allowed to live.
"I will focus on finding this Wu Er. The other Wang Wei cultivators can be ignored, but this Wu Er must die," Lu Yin said in a low voice.
Alarmed Shangyu did not disturb him and left.
Lu Yin released the starry sky in his heart. There were many more celestial bodies than the first time he extracted Zhi. They came from the Wang Wei cultivators just now, and there were some who could fuse with spirit seeds. Although they were not as strong as Zhi, Lu Yin did not look at the other party's strength when extracting the scarlet energy. Instead, he looked at the intensity of his extraction.
Compared to the first time, he was much more familiar with it.
However, he was not sure if this scarlet energy could find Wu Er. It still depended on luck.
Right, luck.
Lu Yin released Qian Shu from Mount Supreme.
Qian Shu saw Lu Yin and bowed respectfully, "Mr. Lu."
Lu Yin nodded, "How's the word 'luck'?"
Qian Shu said, "I've already written one."
Lu Yin raised his eyebrows, "You've only written one in more than fifty years?"
Qian Shu said bitterly, "The word 'luck' is difficult to write. I thought that I could quickly write five, but I underestimated this word."
"For so many years, the Spring and Autumn Scroll only had eight 'luck' characters. I finally understand why."
The Spring and Autumn Scroll floated in front of Lu Yin with the word 'luck' written on it. It was natural, as if it was written with a single stroke. However, it took Qian Shu, who had reached the Peak of Ku Er, more than fifty years to write this word.
This word represented luck. Could he use it?
Lu Yin did not know.
Back then, he had thought about what the word 'luck' brought to the Spring and Autumn Scroll.
It won the bet, but it brought him along.
Everything in the world had its own rules, and forcefully breaking the rules would result in retribution.
If he forcefully increased his luck, then how long would the retribution last?
He would definitely lose his luck at the moment of retribution, and he did not want to be unlucky.
After looking at the word for a long time, Lu Yin did not decide to use it.
"Can this word be used?" Lu Yin asked. He did not know if he was asking himself or Qian Shu.
Qian Shu said, "Yes."
Lu Yin looked at him, "Yes?"
Qian Shu was stunned and hesitated.
The first 'yes' referred to the function, and the second 'yes' referred to whether he should use it.
Qian Shu could not answer this question.
He could not figure out the fate of the Spring and Autumn Scroll. Back then, Lu Yin had asked what luck brought to the Spring and Autumn Scroll, but he still could not find an answer.
Now, Lu Yin was hesitant.
He was also confused.
Lu Yin retracted his gaze and stared at the word 'luck'. This word could bring him good luck, and it might help him find Wu 'er. However, he did not know when he would be unlucky.
The more he understood karma, the more he understood that there was a cause and an effect. With more luck, there would definitely be less luck. It was just that the timing was different.
Everything in the world was fixed, so it was very difficult for cultivators to fight for their lives. The more they fought, the harder it was.
Fighting for one's life, cultivation level, and combat strength were all part of cultivation. Then, what about fighting for luck?
It was also a fight, but the opponent was also the world and the universe. What one fought for at this moment, one would have to pay the price at the next moment.
Lu Yin did not know if he could bear this price in the future.
Luck was something that everyone needed. Mortals needed it, and so did Eternal Realm cultivators.
In the end, Lu Yin took back Qian Shu and the Spring and Autumn Scroll and let Qian Shu continue inscribing while he contacted the Master.
"I heard that you have someone called the Walking Fortune Bag?"
"What are you talking about? She's called Xiang Siyu. You're too rude."
"Sorry, I would like to ask this Xiang Siyu for help."
After a pause, the Master asked, "Help with what?"
"Lend me some luck."
"Mr. Lu, if you have nothing better to do, you can continue to look for Deathly Silence or Mang Da, or go to Blackpool to research the use of that spirit treasure array. I heard that you're also a Spirit Array Heavenly Master."
Lu Yin said, "I really need luck. The one I'm looking for is not simple. Have you heard of Wu 'er?"
"Wu 'er?
She's still alive? "The Master was shocked.
