"The fourth level?
No one knows. That's just a legend. If the Thousand Trickeries wants to see the fourth level from me, I'm afraid he'll be disappointed. Although I also want to work hard to cultivate. Once I reach the fourth level, I'll kill him and you. "
Lu Yin was speechless. "We're getting along pretty well. Why do you have to kill me?"
Chang Tian said in a deep voice, "I think you're quite pleasing to the eye. Although you're an enemy, if you weren't given the Bone Language, even if you hate the human civilization, at least you wouldn't be our enemy. It's not easy for humans to survive in the universe. Every single one of us that survives is one of us. Unfortunately, you're already dead."
"Then why did you talk to me so much?"
"It's all unimportant. It doesn't matter."
…
"Actually, I quite admire the people of the Ninth Stronghold. Senior Changtu said that the people of the Ninth Stronghold are all very upright and care about their civilization more than the other. They're all the good guys of the Ninth Stronghold."
…
"A Quintessential Turbid Treasure?
I know, but if he doesn't say anything, that's more important. If you ask the Thousand Trickeries, I'll scold him to death. "
Lu Yin shrugged and glanced back. The Thousand Trickeries then turned around and left.
"By the way, you mentioned that most of them are on the ninth base. What's the situation at the first stronghold?"
Chang Tian looked up and stared at Lu Yin. Lu Yin's skeletal face was contorted through the water, "Did I say that most of them are on nine bases?
But I've only mentioned a few. Are you curious about the first stronghold? "
Lu Yin nodded, "Very curious."
Chang Tian retracted his gaze. "I don't know."
Lu Yin sighed, "It's just a casual chat. Just tell me what you know, the unimportant ones."
Up until now, he had not obtained any information about the people, events, or objects in the first stronghold. All he knew was that the Turbid Treasure of the first stronghold was a number. However, no one had told him what this number was or what the first stronghold was good at.
He had no idea who the Lord was, what had happened, and which civilization had fought against him.
Being able to become the first stronghold meant that it was important. Perhaps it was the first of the nine bases, so of course he wanted to know more about it.
Chang Tian still replied, "I don't know."
Lu Yin shook his head, "Forget it if you don't want to tell me."
Chang Tian looked at him again. "Go and ask Thousand Trickeries. It must know something. Then, come and tell me. Take it as repayment for what I told you before."
"You really don't know?"
"I really don't know. There's no record of the First Stronghold in the tribe, and the seniors didn't mention it either," Changtian said.
Lu Yin didn't ask any further. It didn't matter if Longevity Celestial was lying to him; there was nothing he could do if Longevity Celestial didn't want to talk about it.
Another few decades passed, and during this time, Longevity Sky told Lu Yin everything he knew about the Ninth Base era. This allowed Lu Yin to gain a better understanding of the Ninth Base. Of course, these were all trivial matters, and Longevity Sky had only learned about them from his seniors. To his seniors, these were just stories and memories.
"Do you know about the Wargod of Ninefold?"
Chang Tian was silent for a moment. "I know. He fought alone with his horse and was invincible. He was known as the God of War."
"His horse is called Time Divine Chariot. It is currently in the Death Universe and has been bestowed with the Bone Language."
Chang Tian's body trembled. His eyes were sharp and filled with killing intent. "Like you?"
Lu Yin shook his head, "It's different from mine. The Divine Chariot of Time is forever reversed. Aside from the Wargod Disk, no other creature can ride on its back.
Chang Tian clenched his fists and looked at the stars. Never to rise again?
How long had it been?
Since the destruction of the Nine Bases and the death of Pan in battle, it has been an endless period of time.
Would he always be upside down and never turn over again?
He could feel the pride and loyalty of the Divine Chariot of Time.
"Why are you telling me this?" Chang Tian's voice was hoarse.
Lu Yin looked at the ripples on the surface of the river as a fish swam past, mischievously flicking its tail at the water. Another fish swam out from a distance and headed towards it, one after the other. They swept across the sky.
They swam past him.
"You've told me so much, so I have to return the favor," Lu Yin said calmly.
Long story.
"By the way, there's one more thing. Have you heard of the Divine Swordmaster?"
"The master of the Eighth Stronghold."
"The Divine Swordmaster has a Sword Test Stone, which is also in the Death Universe. For countless years, the Death Universe has wanted to use it to test their swords, but they couldn't because they would be attacked. There is only one creature that can test their swords, and that is the human skeleton."
Lu Yin slowly said, "The Sword Test Stone will attack any creature in the Death Universe, but it won't attack the human skeleton. It's quite interesting, isn't it?"
Chang Tian closed his eyes and did not speak again.
This silence lasted for another few decades.
Decades later, Lu Yin came to talk to him, but he remained silent.
A hundred years later, Lu Yin came to him again, but he did not speak again.
Thousand Trickery came to study Heaven's Eye. Even when he was in extreme pain, he did not scream.
Two hundred years later, when the Great Death Shift appeared again, Chang Tian did not say a word.
Thousand Trickery blamed Lu Yin for saying something that he should not have said.
Lu Yin said bluntly, "Let's not talk about this. He's always talking nonsense. We have to make him see the truth. The Divine Time Chariot and the Sword Test Stone are examples. No matter how much he resists, it's useless."
Thousand Trickery did not argue with Lu Yin and brought him into the Great Death Shift.
Once again.
Once he entered the Great Death Shift, Lu Yin's first sentence was, "The Stygian Immortal Prison Bone won't attack me again, right?"
Thousand Trickery waved his hand, "It dares."
The appearance of the Great Death Shift meant that the tributaries of the River of Time were all collected.
Thousand Trickery asked Lu Yin to absorb the power of silence on the spot to replenish it.
Lu Yin did not hold back and activated the Sirius Technique to absorb the power of silence.
Before going to the unknown, he had used Thousand Trickery to replenish the power of silence. The only thing he had used was the battle with the Butterfly Ancestor, which was not much.
Thousand Trickery saw the upper limit of his current power of silence, so it did not let him absorb it. There was no need.
Lu Yin needed to replenish it quickly.
After he finished replenishing his Deathly Silence energy, he used the Grand Shift of Death to travel through the distance of several inches under the lead of the Grand Shift of Death. Finally, he arrived at an unfamiliar starry sky. It was not the end point of the Grand Shift of Death, but it was midway.
When they arrived, Li Luochen had already arrived.
This was the first time Lu Yin saw Li Luochen.
It was a creature wrapped in pure black gas, similar to a creature from the Death Universe. After all, it was the ferryman of the Death Universe's River of Time. Many ferrymen were similar to creatures from the Death Universe.
Li Luochen was surrounded by the materials of the original talisman, completely concealing its aura.
Not far from Li Luochen, there were close to a hundred creatures. Most of them were skeletons, but there were also flesh creatures and pure black creatures. These creatures' cultivations were about the same, at the Bitter Adversity level.
They were not high, but they were not low either.
There were three experts around Li Luochen, standing in a triangle. They were the Sword Test Stones. One was pure black, and the other was a creature with blood-red bones. These three experts were all Eternal lifeforms, and their auras were quite strong.
They were all powerhouses who had participated in the struggle for the Abyss before.
The creature with blood-red bones had likely been defeated by the Sword Test Stones, so it did not make it to the end.
However, it was not as unlucky as the Great Golden Wing, who had been killed by Lu Yin.
Thousand Trickery pointed to the last position in the four corners of Li Luochen, "You stand there."
Lu Yin did not understand, "Not following you?"
"No need," Thousand Trickery replied.
Lu Yin nodded and walked to the last corner.
Li Luochen had four experts standing in the four corners, and there were close to a hundred creatures further away that were releasing the tributaries of the River of Time.
They were not the ones capturing the tributaries; they were only responsible for releasing them.
Thousand Trickery waited for a while, and then a familiar figure jumped out of the Great Death Shift. It was Ol 'Six.
They were now in the Abyss.
When he saw Thousand Trickery, Ol 'Six grinned as a greeting.
Thousand Trickery raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
Ol 'Six was stunned. He looked around and fixed his gaze on Lu Yin.
Lu Yin looked at him silently, "You're dressed very formally today. This is your first appearance as an Abyss expert. Don't embarrass me. Don't smile without showing your teeth."
"Keep your weapon polished. Don't get killed before Li Luochen dies."
"This isn't a game."
Toad Ol 'Six looked at Lu Yin, then at the Thousand Trickery, and finally at Lu Yin, "Brat, are you messing with me? It only snapped its fingers, it couldn't have said so much."
Lu Yin indifferently said, "It didn't say it, I said it."
Ol 'Six bared his teeth, "You think you're qualified to talk about me?
Be careful, or I'll kill you. "
Lu Yin turned to look at the Sword Test Stone.
Ol 'Six also looked at the Sword Test Stone and felt his teeth ache.
Why is this broken stone?
Even its head is here?
Can this thing distinguish between friend and foe?
A great battle was bound to ensue. After all, someone who dared to scheme against Li Luochen was definitely not weak.
The Universe of Death was waiting.
Thousand Trickery snapped its fingers again.
Lu Yin's heart skipped a beat, and he stared at Ol 'Six, "I'll leave this side to you."
Ol 'Six glared at Lu Yin, "Who said so?"
Lu Yin pointed at Thousand Trickery.
Ol 'Six looked over.
Thousand Trickery nodded his head seriously.
Ol 'Six sighed and rested his pitchfork on his shoulder, "Understood."
The Thousand Opportunities Crafty Play leaped onto the Great Death Teleportation and disappeared without a trace.
It was definitely related to that old man.
Who knew what method the Universe of Death had used to lure that old man over.
This wouldn't just attract a single old man, but an entire unknown.
A great battle was about to break out.
"Kid, how does it feel to reach the limit of your potential?" Ol 'Six came over and looked at Lu Yin.
Lu Yin shrugged, "Just like that."
Ol 'Six stared at Lu Yin and then swept his gaze over the other three directions, "Tsk tsk, none of them are easy to deal with. The Universe of Death is really willing to go all out. Once this side is wiped out, there won't be any experts left to fight for the position of Abyss."
Li Luochen's voice rang out, "Don't talk, the primer is very troublesome."
Ol 'Six sneered, "Watch me stab it to death."
Lu Yin's gaze was calm as he waited for that moment to arrive.
After an unknown amount of time, the hundred figures in the distance seemed to have received an order and released the tributaries of the River of Time at the same time.
This was an extremely spectacular scene as the hundred tributaries of the River of Time soared into the sky at the same time. It was unknown how the ferrymen of these tributaries were faring.
Grey filled the sky like fog.
It descended and covered the entire area, covering Lu Yin and the others in the blink of an eye.
