Something moved beneath him and quickly swam away. Lu Yin looked over and saw that it was a pure black whale-shaped creature with a black aura. Was this a creature from the Death Universe?
He had some understanding of the Ocean of Death.
In the Death Universe, there were only two types of beings that could enter the Ocean of Death. One was the abyss, like Sixth Brother and Ji. They could enter the Ocean of Death to absorb the deathly still energy that had reached their limits and find ways to increase the deathly still energy to fill their own abyss, which could then be used to connect to the Great Shift of Death.
The second type was the Death Universe.
Death Universe creatures could enter the Ocean of Death at any time, and the Ocean of Death seemed to be connected to the Death Universe itself.
When Lu Yin had first seen Ji, he had thought that it was a Death Universe creature, and even Sixth Brother had thought so.
However, Lu Yin had later found out that it wasn't. It was just that the feeling it gave off was extremely similar to that of a Death Universe creature, and it could even be said to be exactly the same.
But it wasn't.
This was a true Death Universe creature that could hide within the black aura and also reveal its true form.
He had asked Trickery about the Death Universe creatures before.
Trickery had told him that the Death Universe creatures did not all have the same form. The Death Universe was also a universe, and a universe had all sorts of forms.
Even Earth had countless species, let alone an entire universe.
It had even told Lu Yin that there were still humans in the Death Universe. Of course, they weren't real humans and only appeared in human form.
This was because humans had been born in the glorious Ninth Base, and even the Death Universe could not ignore them.
Lu Yin was curious as to whether the Death Universe creatures could freely change their forms, but Trickery did not say anything more and told him to figure it out himself in the future.
Lu Yin curiously sized up the Death Universe creature.
It had the appearance of a whale and was not very powerful. At most, it could reach the level of a Sequence Law creature, but the deathly still energy it contained could not be described as such. More accurately speaking, it was a combination of deathly still energy. To put it bluntly, the deathly still energy had gained sentience and become like this.
The essence of all Death Universe creatures was deathly still energy.
Lu Yin felt that this was the case.
He leaped up and charged out of the Ocean of Death, breathing heavily. Skeletons did not need to breathe, as what they breathed was deathly still energy.
He looked around, but he could not see clearly. Even though his Mirroring technique could see very far, he was currently enveloped by the Ocean of Death.
He had seen the hazy Death Sea more than once. During the Great Death Shift and the Abyss Dialogue, he could see the tiny Death Sea beside the Thousand Trickeries.
. and he had arrived here.
The Dead Sea was vast. There were creatures in the dark yellow fog above their heads, and there were also creatures at the bottom of the sea.
Lu Yin watched for a while, and then his body slowly sank down.
Sitting cross-legged at the bottom of the sea, he raised his arms and used the Three Deaths Art. It was time to absorb the power of death.
He wanted to see how much Deathly Silence energy he could absorb.
When he had come into contact with the river of divinity back in Zhizong, it had left a shadow in his heart. He had thought that the Ocean of Death was as unfathomable as the river of divinity, but now, it seemed that the Ocean of Death was much gentler.
This time, he came to the Ocean of Death not only to absorb the power of the deathly stillness, but also to do something else. He hoped to succeed.
The next moment, Lu Yin began to absorb the power of death.
In an instant, the Ocean of Death roiled and formed a whirlpool that surged madly towards the Three Deaths Technique between his palms, gradually expanding.
At first, no one paid much attention to it. The Ocean of Death was so big that this small whirlpool was not enough to cause a disturbance.
However, as the vortex grew larger and larger, it gradually affected the surroundings.
The Temple of Death
The cosmic lifeforms approached, expressing their dissatisfaction and even wanting to attack.
The Ocean of Death was unfamiliar to Lu Yin and the others, but it was still the territory of the undead universe's lifeforms. Many of the undead universe's lifeforms had their own rules within the Ocean of Death, and Lu Yin's actions had obviously caused some of the undead universe's lifeforms to become displeased.
"Scram!" A loud roar came from the right.
Lu Yin looked over and saw a malevolent beast standing at the bottom of the ocean, glaring at him fiercely.
It was a creature from the undead universe, and it bared its sinister fangs under a pure black aura.
Lu Yin ignored it and continued.
The creature attacked, opening its mouth to bite Lu Yin.
Lu Yin flicked his finger, and a huge force transformed into ripples that forced the creature back.
The creature was unwilling to give up, and it tried a few more times before helplessly retreating.
Soon after, another creature arrived, wanting to attack Lu Yin.
It could not be helped, as Lu Yin had caused too much of a commotion.
In the past, whether it was Le Ku's Withered Bones, Rou Shi Xun, Ol 'Six the toad, or Ji, none of them had caused such a huge commotion.
This was the Three Deaths Technique.
Lu Yin had done this on purpose.
If he had not done this, how would he have drawn out the Ocean of Death's underworld pressure?
Above the Ocean of Death, a pair of eyes stared at the bottom of the ocean, their emotions unreadable.
The Three Deaths Technique?
Not many lifeforms in the Undead Universe could master it, and he had not learned how to restrain himself by using the Three Deaths Technique to absorb the power of death.
Had he not been taught the Thousand Trickery Tricks?
The translator of the Thousand Trickery Tricks had not been honest either, and he had even been a human-shaped skeleton. Human skeletons deserved to die, and they should not have entered the Ocean of Death. The Ocean of Death did not welcome human-shaped skeletons, and they should be taught a lesson.
The ocean churned, and it had not been so lively in a long time.
In that case, let's see how much you can absorb.
With that thought in mind, the entire Ocean of Death surged, and droplets of deathly still energy flowed backwards.
Then, it was as if the world had turned upside down, and it suddenly poured towards Lu Yin.
All of the lifeforms in the Ocean of Death were alarmed.
Above the Ocean of Death, all of the lifeforms within the boundless dark yellow fog appeared and stared at the bottom of the ocean.
Even Ol 'Six the toad's deathly still energy had not been so exaggerated.
The Ocean of Death's Netherworld Pressure was furious.
Many lifeforms from the Undead Universe leaped out of the ocean, as they could not stand being poured in like this.
They were going to choke to death.
At the bottom of the ocean, Lu Yin looked up and seemed to see the eyes within the dark yellow fog.
The entire Ocean of Death was pouring in, and an endless amount of deathly still energy crazily poured into his body. Lu Yin calmed his heart and used the Three Deaths Technique to absorb it, which saved him a lot of effort.
If the entire Ocean of Death's deathly still energy was poured into him, he would not be able to endure it. However, the Black Immortal Prison Bone would not kill him, and the Ocean of Death's Netherworld Pressure would at most teach him a lesson. There was no need to think too much about it.
As he continued to absorb the deathly still energy, an enormous pressure came from all directions, and the Three Deaths Technique could not absorb it in time.
The world itself was suppressing him.
Lu Yin felt as if he was choking on water, and it was suffocating and pressurizing. However, this pressure was much less than the Black Immortal Prison Bone's.
The deathly still energy within the Three Deaths Technique quickly reached its previous level, and Lu Yin continued to absorb it.
Outside, the Ocean of Death's Netherworld Pressure was astonished. He could actually endure so much deathly still energy?
Not bad, and he was already close to the abyss. It was no wonder why Thousand Trickery had sent him to the Ocean of Death.
Let's see how much you can endure.
Lu Yin's Three Deaths Technique had only consumed half of the deathly still energy, which was why the Ocean of Death's Netherworld Pressure had assumed that Lu Yin had only consumed half of the deathly still energy. What he was absorbing now was the limit that Lu Yin had hidden from Thousand Trickery.
Time passed, and the Ocean of Death's Netherworld Pressure could clearly feel the deathly still energy being consumed.
Lu Yin.
He had absorbed even more deathly still energy, and in its eyes, he had already surpassed Le Gui's Withering, Li Luo, and Chen Weathering, and was close to the Black Immortal Prison Bone.
It was rare for someone not in the Eternal Realm to be able to absorb so much deathly still energy.
At the bottom of the sea, Lu Yin lowered his arm. He had reached his limit.
He had used the deathly still energy within the Ocean of Death to replenish the deathly still energy that he had consumed. That amount was close to the abyss, but in reality, that amount was not even half of the Three Deaths Technique. After replenishing that amount, the amount of deathly still energy that he had absorbed was the limit hidden from Thousand Trickery. From the Ocean of Death's Netherworld Pressure's point of view, the amount of deathly still energy that Lu Yin had absorbed was close to the Black Immortal Prison Bone.
In reality, with the addition of the deathly still energy within the Three Deaths Technique, Lu Yin's deathly still energy would definitely surpass the Black Immortal Prison Bone and be second only to the Ocean of Death's Netherworld Pressure and Thousand Trickery.
This was something that only Lu Yin knew.
The Ocean of Death's Netherworld Pressure only knew part of it, and so did the Thousand Trickery.
Now that the Three Deaths Technique had been maxed out, Lu Yin could no longer absorb any more deathly still energy. However, the Ocean of Death's Netherworld Pressure had no intention of letting him go, and it continued to pour more energy into him.
The feeling of drowning became more and more obvious. It was like a drowning person, filled with despair and helplessness. The depths of the sea continued to press down, and darkness enveloped everything.
Lu Yin leaped up, wanting to rush out, but he was suppressed by an even greater force.
At this moment, the Ocean of Death revealed its true fangs. The entire universe seemed to be filled with death. This was a power that could steal away one's soul. This was the true deathly still energy, the deathly still energy that belonged to the Ocean of Death's Netherworld Pressure.
Previously, he had thought that the Ocean of Death was different from the unknown river of divine power. It was much gentler. However, although it was not as crazy as the river of divine power, it was still stripping away one's life.
It was stripping away the light.
Death was descending.
Compared to this, the torment of the Black Immortal Prison Bone was nothing. It was not only the physical body that was enduring it, but also the spirit.
Above the Ocean of Death, the pair of eyes stared at the bottom of the sea. The lesson was not enough.
If he dared to change the Thousand Trickery without permission, if not for the fact that the Soft Devouring Track sought death and prevented the Death Universe from being able to replenish its experts, the Ocean of Death could have killed him.
The Black Immortal Prison Bone would not be able to explain itself to the Thousand Trickery, but it did not care.
It had to teach him an unforgettable lesson and let him know what death was.
Lu Yin's body sank to the bottom of the sea. The enormous deathly pressure was like a shadow that pressed closer. He seemed to see another him walk out of his body and into another pure black world.
He had clearly cultivated the power of deathly still, but it gave him a completely different feeling.
Every abyss had a different deathly still energy.
Then, how did his own deathly still energy make others feel?
Lu Yin looked at the surface of the sea. Although he was getting further and further away, he felt that he was becoming more and more integrated with the sea. He was clearly enduring death, but he felt that death was where he belonged. This feeling was familiar. Where had he experienced it before?
Right, when he had tried to reach the limit, he had experienced it in the black sphere of the Thousand Trickery.
Swimming freely. That moment of swimming freely. This was the feeling.
His consciousness was blurring. His vision was blurring. His sense of touch was blurring. Everything was blurring.
Amidst the blurriness, Lu Yin thought of many things: the past, the present, and the future.
Amidst the blurriness, his fingertips touched the deathly still energy. It was so gentle.
Was death where he belonged?
What was he thinking at this moment?
Of the past and the future?
He did not know. His thoughts were in a mess. This was brought to him by the deathly still energy. Death.
Death, deathly still. Death, deathly still. Suddenly, Lu Yin sat up and stared blankly at the surface of the sea. In that instant, a thought flashed through his mind: the Piercing Sky Technique.
"Thank you, brothers, for your support. I'll add an extra chapter at two in the afternoon. Thank you!
Thank you! "
