Xiang Siyu stood up and looked up. She saw the Mother Tree, the Nine-Firmaments Universe, and the Core. Her pale face had not yet recovered, but a smile appeared on her beautiful face. Her body slowly distorted in the light and disappeared.
The Core. Red Hero headed towards the Red Shirt Universe. It had taken him a hundred years to sneak into the Nine-Firmaments Universe and find Xiang Siyu. Although he was unwilling, there was nothing he could do since he had been discovered.
Still, he would have another chance in the future.
He looked back. The three universes were now so high-profile that Lu Yin's last chance to act would not be enough.
However, he did not have much time left.
He retracted his gaze and saw a figure in white fluttering in front of him. Red Hero's eyes narrowed as he hurriedly stopped and looked over in shock. He did not know when a figure had appeared in front of him, but it was an extremely familiar figure. Xiang Siyu?
He stared blankly at Xiang Siyu, who was standing in front of him with a smile on her face. It was indescribably absurd.
How was this possible?
Hadn't she been taken away by Qinglian?
Why was she here?
And how had she managed to get close to him without him noticing?
Impossible, absolutely impossible. Even Lu Yin could not do that.
Even teleportation was impossible.
Her?
Red Hero stood in place and did not say a word. He just stared at Xiang Siyu.
Xiang Siyu smiled and sized him up. "When you suddenly appeared behind me, did I have the same expression?"
"How ugly, little brat."
Little brat?
Red Hero stared at Xiang Siyu and slowly clenched his fists. He was on high alert. "Who are you?"
Xiang Si Yu's lips curled into a smile, her beauty intoxicating. "Don't you know?
You specifically went to find me. "
"You are not her," Red Hero growled, his voice emotionless.
Teng! His eyes continued to flicker, as if something was about to appear. At the same time, he unleashed the Tai Qing's sourcebox array. This was something that had never happened before when he had faced off against any other expert.
It had been a long time since Red Hero had experienced such a feeling.
Xiang Siyu's hair fluttered as she raised a hand and twirled her hair around her fingers. She looked like a young girl, and her face flushed a little. She looked at Red Hero playfully. "I am her. You just don't know what to call me. Let me think."
"Forget it, let's go with Xiang Siyu. I like this name."
"However," she said, her face darkening, "I don't like what she did."
"You've affected me for a little fellow. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to wake up. To express my gratitude …" Her lips curled up. "From now on, you … you're mine."
"As for that civilization, it should have as much bad luck as good luck. That's only fair."
…
Within the ruins of the Taiqing civilization, Lu Yin stayed within the Clear Sky Lock Array for ten years. Ten years was a very short period of time, as he had spent it studying the Clear Sky Lock Array. In the end, he came to the conclusion that he would not be able to learn this sourcebox array.
How should he put it? It was that kind of feeling.
It was as if some powers were only suitable for certain people. No matter how talented others were, they would never be able to learn those powers.
The Clear Sky Lock Earth Formation gave him a very clear feeling.
When he had been researching this sourcebox array, he had always felt out of place. It had been like this for ten years, so he had given up.
At his level of cultivation, there were some things that he couldn't ignore. Only those that suited him were useful. Those that didn't suit him shouldn't be forced.
This was an opportunity.
The Taiqing civilization might have had such thoughts as well. Otherwise, with their knowledge of sourcebox arrays, it would have been impossible for them to have allowed this array to be lost.
There was also the possibility that they had been too pressed for time.
Even if Lu Yin had forcefully learned this sourcebox array, it would have taken him a lot of time, at least several thousand years.
Perhaps it would have been too late for the Taiqing civilization back then.
Although he couldn't learn it, this Clear Sky Lock Earth Formation truly existed here. Even if he couldn't learn it, he could still use it.
Lu Yin left the ruins of the Taiqing civilization and returned to the Tian Yuan universe. He brought along another clone, a godly power clone.
This was a clone that specialized in cultivating an unknown godly power. With its tri-colored godly power transformation, it had the power of a rogue. However, because it was only a clone, it could only rival an apex powerhouse who was compatible with one universal law. It couldn't use its tri-colored godly power to kill existences like Ming Yu, who were compatible with two universal laws.
In order to use the Clear Sky Lock Earth Formation, one had to learn it and adapt to it.
Leaving the godly power clone within the array and allowing it to adapt to the array meant that it would not be locked down by the Clear Sky Lock Earth Formation when using it. This was how to use it.
Lu Yin wanted to give the unknown universe, the dead universe, and the other civilizations a surprise.
Didn't they all want to find the Taiqing?
The Taiqing was here.
After placing the godly power clone within the Clear Sky Lock Earth Formation, Lu Yin spoke to the ferryman of the River of Time and returned to the three universes.
When he first brought along the godly power clone, he sensed that there had been a battle in the Nine Heavens Universe. The traces of an Eternal Realm battle were obvious, and even the karmic celestial phenomenon had changed. This was not simple.
"Red Hero was here?" In the Nine Heavens Universe, Lu Yin looked at Azure Lotus Protector in surprise.
Master Grass and Chu Songyun were also there.
Azure Lotus Protector nodded. "He took Xiang Siyu away, but I caught up with him and could only return her."
Lu Yin frowned. He had actually come for Xiang Siyu.
He should have known. When he had brought Xiang Siyu to the Red Coat universe, they had encountered the Northern Hero several times. This was incomprehensible to Red Hero, but as a powerful Eternal being, he would naturally care.
"How is Xiang Siyu?"
"The Great Master is taking care of her. She is fine."
Lu Yin looked in the direction of the Red Coat universe, but unfortunately, the Mirroring Technique could not see that far. "He won't give up. I'll have to trouble you to keep an eye on him."
Azure Lotus Protector said, "In the karmic celestial phenomenon, as long as he makes a move, he will be detected. Don't worry."
Master Grass looked at Lu Yin. "How is it in the Death universe?"
Lu Yin gave a simple explanation of his situation, leaving everyone dumbfounded.
The bone clone had joined the unknown, and both sides were about to fight. They felt like they were watching a show in the dark.
In the past, they had always been the main characters and were always being watched. Now, they could watch other civilizations. This feeling was too comfortable.
Chu Songyun was worried. "Master, both sides know that you are the other side's spy. This, will it be dangerous?"
Lu Yin laughed. "There's no choice if it's dangerous. Try to avoid it. By the way, how is Changtian?
Is he adapting well?
Can you find the coordinates of the Eternal civilization? "
Azure Lotus Protector shook his head. "He can adapt here. After all, they are all humans, but he can't find the coordinates of the Eternal civilization."
Lu Yin felt regretful. It would be perfect if he could find the Eternal civilization.
Next, he went to the Death Hillock. Xiang Siyu was targeted by Red Hero because of him.
When he arrived at the Death Hillock, Lu Yin scanned the area with his consciousness.
Not good.
He found the Great Master, who had fainted for quite some time. However, there were no signs that she had attacked.
Lu Yin couldn't tell how she had fainted, but waking up was easy.
She woke up with a nudge.
The Great Master opened her eyes and looked at Lu Yin in confusion.
"What happened?
Who knocked you out? "Lu Yin asked.
The Great Master was confused. "Fainted?" Her expression suddenly changed, and she looked around. "Where's Xiang Siyu?"
Lu Yin shook his head. "She's gone. I've searched all three universes, but she's not here."
The Great Master's expression turned grave. "Something's wrong with her."
"What do you mean?"
The Great Master told Lu Yin about the feeling she had when Xiang Siyu had woken up. Lu Yin felt a chill run down his spine, as if he was facing another person.
A clone?
Lu Yin had a clone himself, so he wasn't surprised by this method. What made him feel creeped out was Xiang Siyu's uniqueness. Her Fortune Physique didn't seem to be without reason.
He thought about the burning "Fortune" character and Xiang Siyu's blood when he had been in seclusion. Everything told him that something incomprehensible had happened.
He could vaguely guess what was going on, even though it was inconceivable.
"Master Lu, do you know what's going on with Xiang Siyu?" the Great Master asked when she saw Lu Yin's solemn expression.
Lu Yin said, "Rest well. I'll take care of it." He then teleported to the Red Shirt civilization below the planet.
The moment he arrived, the Red Shirt civilization searched the entire universe with their consciousness, which alarmed Jiu Wen and the West Upper Peak.
They couldn't find Red Hero.
Lu Yin looked at the distance between the Red Shirt civilization and the three universes. With Red Hero's speed, this distance shouldn't be too far.
"What's wrong?" Jiu Wen asked.
Lu Yin looked at Jiu Wen.
"Red Hero went to the three universes."
Jiu Wen's expression changed, and he gritted his teeth. "He's starting to care less about us. This can't go on."
Lu Yin said, "Senior, Red Hero is no longer an insurmountable mountain. I don't need you to lower this mountain."
Jiu Wen hesitated.
Lu Yin continued, "Ever since the calamity of the three universes, our human civilization has suffered great losses, but we've also gained a lot. If you return to the three universes, even if I'm useless, with your strength and the Azure Lotus Protector's combined forces with Mister Mu and Chu Songyun, you can still stand tall."
"It doesn't matter if Red Hero's Ruthless Path has been broken by 70%."
West Upper Peak looked at Lu Yin. From the beginning, everyone had tried to weaken the Heroic Ancestor's strength. For this, Jiu Wen had even sacrificed himself. How long had it been since then?
Was there no need to do that anymore?
"What about these people?"
"Take them all."
Jiu Wen was surprised. "What about Red Hero?"
Lu Yin said, "The reason why he didn't let you take away the people from the Red Shirt civilization was because he was afraid that without these people, you could leave the Blood Tower and join forces with the Azure Lotus Protector to deal with him. Now that we don't need to weaken his Ruthless Path, he naturally doesn't need to use these people to restrain you."
"Wang Wen has been exposed. Next, the human civilization will face Wang Wen. He will try his best to keep a low profile."
Next, everyone from the Red Shirt civilization under the stars began to come into contact with each other. Lu Yin wanted to bring them to the three universes. The three universes had already prepared a place for the people from the Red Shirt civilization.
As for Jiu Wen and West Upper Peak, they had also left the Blood Tower.
Lu Yin wanted to kill Red Hero, but he could not do it now.
That was because the Azure Lotus Protector and Jiu Wen could not do it even if they joined forces. The human civilization could not afford to fight Red Hero to the death.
However, this was only on the surface.
The three universes were being watched by all the civilizations, but no one was watching Lu Yin's clone, who was hidden in the darkness.
There would be a day when Red Hero would be buried.
