Northgate Gang was so excited that he was about to cry. He had been living a life worse than death on Planet Pyrolyte. Before Lu Yin had arrived, he had faced multiple life and death crises, and after Lu Yin's arrival, he had been insulted by Hai Qiqi to the point where he doubted his life. He had been forced to run out and face dangerous enemies. After Lu Yin had guarded the mountain range, Northgate Gang had become a miner. It had been more than a month, but he had not taken a single step out of the mine because he was afraid of being caught by Hai Qiqi.
Finally, his big brother had arrived.
Northgate Lie looked at the red-eyed Northgate Gang, who was in a sorry state, and the mining tools in his hands. He nodded inwardly. Northgate Gang had grown up, and he knew how to share the burden of his family. He had even personally mined. It wasn't easy.
Lu Yin guessed that the newcomer was Northgate Lie, as Kayze's star essence skin had been given to him.
"Thank you, Brother Lu," Northgate Lie said solemnly. The two had once been enemies, and Northgate Lie had been confident that he could suppress this person. However, it wasn't until the Sea King's son-in-law selection that Northgate Lie realized how laughable his thoughts had been. This person had long since surpassed him.
Lu Yin casually replied.
Northgate Lie took out 2,000 star essence from his cosmic ring. "Brother Lu, I know that this isn't enough to compensate for the star essence skin, but this is all we can offer for now. We'll definitely pay you back in the future."
Lu Yin was stunned. "Just give me 1,000. Didn't I say that I'm only selling it for 1,000?"
Northgate Lie seriously replied, "That star essence skin is definitely worth more than 1,000. 3,000 is more like it. Northline Flowzone doesn't want Brother Lu to suffer a loss. You saved my brothers' lives, so Northline Flowzone already owes you a lot."
Since someone was offering him money, Lu Yin had no reason to refuse. He did not stand on ceremony and stored the 2,000 star essence into his cosmic ring. Now, he had 4,000 star essence, which was perfect.
He wondered how much more money could upgrade the Money Bomb and universal armor, and he was looking forward to it.
Northgate Lie's arrival made the various powers even more anxious.
In the Outerverse, many spacecraft arrived from the Innerverse, transporting a huge amount of star essence.
Outside of Planet Pyrolyte, the various powers were even busier. Not only did they have to produce star essence skins, but they also had to purify pyrolyte.
Pyrolyte's purification process was more difficult than expected. Pyrolyte was an extremely compressed material, and it represented the universe's definition of destructive power. The slightest mistake, and it would explode.
The ratio of pyrolyte to pyrolyte was also far lower than what the major powers had expected.
Right now, the Sword Faction was the one who had mined the most pyrolyte ore. They had occupied Pyrolyte Mountain much earlier than the other factions, and their equipment was complete. They had already purified no less than three hundred grams of pyrolyte. What kind of concept was three hundred grams of pyrolyte? Based on its destructive power, it was equivalent to a combat power of three million. If they were to explode at the same time, it would be enough to turn an entire region of space into a black hole.
The greatest use of Bi was not to fight with the strong, because the strong could divert Bi's destructive power. Bi was born for war, and its enormous destructive power was enough to make anyone fear.
Elder Viletree had originally planned to transport the Pyrolyte back to the Sword Sect, but he didn't feel at ease when he thought about it. He still planned to wait until all the Pyrolyte had been extracted before asking for an even stronger expert from the sect to escort them.
Currently, two-thirds of the pyrolyte ore in Pyrolyte Mountain was left. If all of it was purified, it would probably be close to a thousand grams. In addition to the pyrolyte found in other parts of the unknown star region, the amount of pyrolyte in the Sword Sect might be around a thousand and one hundred grams.
This was the Sword Sect's weapon of deterrence. Once a large scale war broke out, these Pyrolytes were enough to change the situation of the war.
Fortunately, the Innerverse and the Neoverse were separated by the Cosmic Sea, which prevented the Neoverse from quickly finding out what was happening on Pyrolyte Mountain. Otherwise, the Sword Sect would not be competing with the Innerverse's powers, but rather the Neoverse's behemoths.
A few days after Northgate Lie entered Planet Pyrolyte, an enormous beast roared as it charged into the planet from outer space. It smashed apart a spacecraft that had just taken off and snatched the pyrolyte ore that was about to be sent to outer space. It then galloped across the mountain range and headed northwest.
This scene shocked the various great powers.
"That's Ze Lin?
He's ranked sixty-seventh on the Top 100 Rankings, and he's a genius from the Divine Grade Hall. "
"That's right, it's Ze Lin. That's an Oolong Horse that's famous throughout the universe."
"The Second Grade Hall actually managed to gather enough star essence for Ze Lin to enter Planet Pyrolyte so quickly."
"It should be the Divine Grade Hall's doing. They've always been rich."
"I never thought that Ze Lin would enter Planet Pyrolyte. Lu Yin is in trouble now. Can he stop an expert ranked sixty-seventh on the Top 100 Rankings?
Legend has it that Ze Lin's innate gift allows him to fuse with beasts, and he's a natural-born beast tamer. The Divine Grade Hall even fought with other powers to obtain him. His strength is unquestionable. "
"Ze Lin intentionally stepped over the mountain range to humiliate Lu Yin."
…
On the mountain range, Northgate Lie looked up with a shocked expression. It was actually Ze Lin, sixty-seventh on the Top 100 Rankings. This was going to be troublesome.
Lu Yin watched as the Oolong Horse disappeared into the northwest, and his expression turned solemn. This person had intentionally stepped over his head. Was this a show of force?
"Hey, you were trampled by a horse," Hai Qiqi mocked as she happily pointed at Lu Yin.
Lu Yin's expression darkened, and he stood up. "Then I'll trample it back."
Hai Qiqi's eyes lit up. "Really?
Let's go train the horse. "
Northgate Lie's eyelids twitched. "Brother Lu, please reconsider. Ze Lin is very strong, and his Oolong Horse can devour planets. His innate gift allows him to fuse with his Oolong Horse, making it even stronger. He also avoids the weakness of all beast tamers, which is their own defense. Don't be rash."
Lu Yin calmly replied, "Even if I don't go looking for him, he'll still come looking for me."
Northgate Lie fell silent. Based on Ze Lin's attitude, he would definitely come looking for trouble. The Divine Grade Hall would not let this mountain range go, and Ze Lin was a hurdle that they had to cross.
"I'll go with you." Northgate Lie looked at Lu Yin solemnly.
Lu Yin shook his head. "No need. You take care of the mountain range." He then soared into the sky and flew towards the northwest.
Sixty-seventh on the Top 100 Rankings?
Lu Yin wanted to see if this person could force him to use his full physical strength or even his Fatesand. Lu Yin had too many trump cards, such as his universal armor, Money Bomb, and so on. Although the various great powers were rich, they did not have an ability like Lu Yin who could use Enhance to infinitely increase his strength. Thus, they did not have any external items that could help them defeat powerful enemies. Lu Yin had plenty of such items.
Hai Qiqi excitedly followed behind Lu Yin, her face full of joy.
In outer space, within the Second Grade Hall's warship, Karthika's expression was extremely ugly. Before Ze Lin had entered Planet Pyrolyte, he had instructed Ze Lin not to provoke Lu Yin. It was not that he was worried that Ze Lin would not be able to defeat Lu Yin, but rather that there was no need to do so for the time being. He had allowed the other powers' experts to exhaust Lu Yin first, as the other powers' experts would soon be able to enter the planet.
Whoever expended more energy would easily be at a disadvantage in the following battles. However, this brat had not listened and even dared to provoke Karthika.
Ze Lin was helpless as well. How could he have imagined that Lu Yin would attack him just by passing by the mountain range? In his mind, Lu Yin should be doing his best to avoid fighting him. Where did this brat get the confidence to challenge an expert ranked sixty-seventh on the Top 100 Rankings?
However, this question was already meaningless.
Lu Yin had already arrived, and there was even a little girl beside him who was staring at him provocatively. This made Ze Lin very depressed, but he could not show it. He had only just arrived at Planet Pyrolyte, and he did not know what had happened before.
The pyrolyte mine that the Second Grade Hall occupied was not too far from the Daynight clan's Pyrolyte Plains. The Second Grade Hall had robbed several powers of pyrolyte mines, and they had barely been able to mine until now.
Outside the mine, Kuang Wang looked up at the sky.
Unknowingly, Lu Yin was actually able to fight against Ze Lin.
"Hey, hand over the horse." Lu Yin and Ze Lin were still observing each other when Hai Qiqi spoke up first, startling the two of them.
Ze Lin's brows jumped, and he glared at Hai Qiqi. "What did you just say, brat?"
Hai Qiqi pointed at the Oolong Horse beneath Ze Lin. "Hand it over. I want to train it."
The Oolong Horse was enraged. It was an astral beast that could devour planets, and it was quite intelligent. This brat in front of it actually wanted to train it? It could not take it any longer, and it wanted to devour her.
Ze Lin hurriedly pacified the Oolong Horse and then looked at Lu Yin. "Who gave you the guts to challenge me?"
Lu Yin retracted the star energy in his eyes, and he could clearly see that Ze Lin's body was nothing special, but the Oolong Horse beneath him contained a terrifying amount of rune lines. As expected of the sixty-seventh on the Top 100 Rankings, the Oolong Horse was not something that Kayze could compare to. This battle would be a little difficult, but of course, that was under the premise that Lu Yin unsealed most of his physical strength.
"Let me ask you a question." Lu Yin looked at Ze Lin curiously. "How much star essence did that star essence skin of yours consume?"
Ze Lin was stunned. "Why do you ask?"
"I'm just curious. When I sell it, I'll at least know the price," Lu Yin replied.
Ze Lin's face sank. "How dare you!" He no longer restrained the Oolong Horse. The Oolong Horse roared and viciously charged towards Lu Yin and Hai Qiqi. Lu Yin pushed Hai Qiqi aside and raised his right hand to slap the Oolong Horse.
There was a thump, and the void distorted before countless cracks appeared. The thunderous sound of the collision formed visible ripples that not only swept through the ground, but also the void.
Countless people, including those in outer space, watched this scene unfold.
The Oolong Horse's charge had been blocked by Lu Yin.
Ze Lin's pupils shrank. How was this possible?
A Limiteer had actually blocked the Oolong Horse's charge?
Karthika was shocked, as he was well aware of the Oolong Horse's terrifying charge. Even though he knew that Lu Yin's physical body was strong, who would have thought that it would be this strong? This was a monster!
Kayze was the only one who wasn't surprised, as he had been crushed by that monstrous strength before.
Lu Yin and the Oolong Horse were very close to each other, and he placed his palm between the Oolong Horse's eyes. His muscles bulged, and he suddenly took a step back. The Oolong Horse's eyes were filled with rage, and it was almost scarlet. It could feel the provocation of Lu Yin's physical strength, and this was something that it could not accept no matter what. With a loud roar, the Oolong Horse actually grew larger and stronger.
Lu Yin was pushed back, and two large spatial cracks appeared beneath his feet. He immediately raised his other hand and exerted strength in both arms, using his strongest strength to forcefully resist the Oolong Horse's charge.
Ze Lin could feel the Oolong Horse's unwillingness, and he sat on its back and raised his hand to slap Lu Yin.
The Oolong Horse suddenly roared, as it wanted to stop Ze Lin and compete with Lu Yin in terms of strength.
