The Corpse King glared at Lu Yin with its scarlet eyes and raised its rotting arms to grab at Lu Yin, but Lu Yin casually pushed it away. He looked around and saw that this place was probably some sort of laboratory. There was a large hole above his head, and he had been forcefully smashed in.
There were quite a few blue crystals piled up in the laboratory. These crystals could help cultivators display water-type battle techniques, and some Corpse Kings could gain this innate gift by eating these crystals.
Back on Earth, outside of Jinlin City, Lu Yin had encountered such a Corpse King, which was exactly what the Neohuman Alliance needed.
This was indeed a stronghold of the Neohuman Alliance.
The ground trembled as dust fell from above. Lu Yin looked up and saw quite a few rune lines converging. The Hunter from Darkstar Gorge had been entangled by the Neohuman Alliance.
Any Neohuman Alliance stronghold was not simple, and they all had at least one Hunter overseeing it. It would not be easy for this person to destroy the stronghold.
The Corpse King roared again and charged at Lu Yin. Lu Yin frowned and exerted a bit of strength with his palm, instantly killing the Corpse King.
Although he was using the Neohuman Alliance to attack Darkstar Gorge, the Neohuman Alliance itself was a great enemy of the human race, and they had to be destroyed if they encountered a Corpse King.
Lu Yin blasted open the laboratory and looked outside. There were more than ten laboratories, and he walked through them one by one to eliminate all of the Corpse Kings.
After leaving the final laboratory, he looked up again and saw that some of the rune lines had disappeared. This stronghold was not very powerful, and even if it had a Hunter, it was not a peak Hunter, let alone a Corpse King. It could not stop Darkstar Gorge, so Lu Yin decided to lend them a hand.
Lu Yin had only taken a few steps when he suddenly felt his scalp go numb. His domain had inexplicably collapsed, and an indescribable chill swept through his body. He could not help but tremble, and his eyes immediately filled with star energy as he scanned his surroundings. Finally, he looked beneath his feet and saw an indescribably boundless amount of rune lines. There were even more than Karthika, Lei Long, and Elder Wu.
There was an Enlighter here. Lu Yin's pupils shrank. What the hell, there was actually such a powerhouse here? He raised a hand and blasted apart the building above his head before charging forward.
This planet was very strange. The lava was being repelled from the inside by a force that did not belong to the Neohuman Alliance. When they had first found this planet, it had already been like this. The most important reason why they had chosen this planet as their stronghold was because there was something at the planet's core that was worth studying: a dried corpse....
A corpse that had been dried for countless years had formed an aura that repelled the magma, greatly reducing the lifespan of the planet.
The location of this mummy was the core of the planet.
Lu Yin's previous position was only a hundred meters away from the mummy.
In the earth's core, the originally motionless corpse suddenly opened its eyes. 'Ancient bloodline discovered. Mission target confirmed. Kill.'
Lu Yin rushed out from the upper levels of the geocentric laboratory and fled in panic.
In the distance, the Hunter from Darkstar Gorge was currently engaged in a fierce battle with a Hunter realm Corpse King. When he saw Lu Yin, he shouted, "You can't escape!"
Lu Yin looked back, but he wasn't looking at the person from Darkstar Gorge. Instead, he was looking at the ground. The rune lines expanded once again, and a chill ran down his spine.
"Lu Yin, I want you to pay with your blood! Sacrifice my father's spirit!" the powerhouse from Darkstar Gorge shouted with a sinister look in his eyes.
Lu Yin looked at the man from Darkstar Gorge and gritted his teeth. "Don't chase me. There's an even more ruthless one down there. Deal with him first."
The man from Darkstar Gorge subconsciously looked down, and his pupils shrank. At the same time, Lu Yin looked down as well, and his pupils shrank as well. The monkey cried out, "Run, Seventh Bro!"
The Hunter realm Corpse King that had been fighting with the man from Darkstar Gorge had its head crushed by something that looked like a desiccated corpse. The headless corpse was swaying in its hand, and it looked extremely horrifying in the darkness of the underground. It looked like an evil spirit. The desiccated corpse's eyes were dark and lusterless as it stared at Lu Yin.
Lu Yin's face went pale. This thing was staring at him, and it wanted to kill him. What was going on?
Why had such a freak appeared out of nowhere?
The man from Darkstar Gorge also went pale. He could sense an aura that surpassed his father's from the desiccated corpse. This was a terrifying powerhouse with a power level of over 200,000, and it was a monster that the Neohuman Alliance had researched.
Lu Yin and the man from Darkstar Gorge didn't have the time to bother with each other. They both kept their heads down as they fled, breaking through the ground and rushing to the surface.
The desiccated corpse put down the Corpse King and slowly turned its head. Perhaps it had not moved for too long, but its neck made a cracking sound. Then, its four limbs moved and its knees bent. With a bang, its entire body broke through the ground and chased after Lu Yin with unstoppable force.
The man from Darkstar Gorge tore through the void, intending to leave. Lu Yin saw him and took out Progenitor Wushang's hide, shouting, "Hey!"
The man from Darkstar Gorge subconsciously looked over and saw Progenitor Wushang's hide. His mind trembled. This person had been on guard against all sorts of attacks, but he had still been careless in the face of death and had been ambushed by Lu Yin.
However, Lu Yin did not plan on killing him. He just wanted to run faster than this person.
The man from Darkstar Gorge was stunned for less than two seconds, and he quickly regained his senses. By then, he could no longer see Lu Yin's figure. His eyes were filled with hatred as he tore through the void and stepped into it. He was a Hunter, so he could move through the void.
But just as his other foot was about to step into the void, he felt something tighten around his back, followed by an intense pain. In that instant, he saw his back. Eh?
How can I see my back? And behind me is that desiccated corpse.
The man from Darkstar Gorge's head had been twisted off and tossed away. The desiccated corpse only paused for a moment before charging towards the surface.
The peak Hunter from Darkstar Gorge had been killed without even being able to put up a fight. However, he could be considered lucky since he had not suffered much.
Based on the number of rune lines on the desiccated corpse, Lu Yin knew that the man from Darkstar Gorge would not be able to delay him for much longer. Thus, he tossed out the sourcebox as soon as he reached the surface and leaped into the distance. With a flick of his finger, the box opened, and the formless danger from the sourcebox appeared once more. At the same time, Lu Yin released his domain to search for the man from Darkstar Gorge's spacecraft.
"Seventh Bro, that thing came out!" the monkey shouted in horror.
Lu Yin gritted his teeth. "Let's go to outer space." The monkey then transformed into a shadow and pulled him towards outer space.
On the surface, the desiccated corpse walked out. The formless danger from the sourcebox enveloped the area, causing it to stop.
Lu Yin looked back and saw that the desiccated corpse had been restrained by the formless danger. He heaved a sigh of relief, and the monkey used the fastest speed he had ever used in his entire life to escape.
The desiccated corpse raised its eyes, which seemed capable of swallowing light, and fixed them on the sourcebox within the box. It glanced over and then leaped up. Lu Yin's eyes widened as he watched the formless danger from the sourcebox completely envelop the desiccated corpse with rune lines. However, the desiccated corpse was not harmed as he had expected. The formless danger that Elder Wu and Topmist had feared could not harm the desiccated corpse at all.
Lu Yin's scalp went numb, and he raised his gun and fired.
The bullet was not very fast, and a Hunter could dodge it if they were prepared. However, the desiccated corpse did not dodge, and the bullet embedded itself in its chest. It was completely ineffective, and the desiccated corpse only paused for a moment before charging towards Lu Yin again.
"Hurry up!" Lu Yin was furious.
The monkey shrieked, "You're still blaming me? It's all your fault! What did you provoke? I even used the strength of my reincarnation, but I still couldn't outrun that thing."
The desiccated corpse was not very fast, but every step it took traversed through space. This was different from tearing through the void, and it was also different from Tian Hou's fusion into the void. It was as if the desiccated corpse was stepping on space itself.
As the desiccated corpse approached, Lu Yin helplessly took out the small piece of Progenitor Wushang's hide that he had obtained from the monkey and aimed it at the desiccated corpse. The desiccated corpse's dark eyes saw Progenitor Wushang's hide, and its body suddenly stopped. Lu Yin saw that it was useful, and he gritted his teeth and tossed the hide onto the desiccated corpse's head to seal its eyes.
Progenitor Wushang's hide would only intimidate an Enlighter for one or two seconds, and they would only be able to look away after that. It was the same for the desiccated corpse, so Lu Yin could only let the desiccated corpse stare at Progenitor Wushang's hide and continue intimidating it. Fortunately, the desiccated corpse was not human, and it did not seem to have any intelligence. Humans might know how to remove Progenitor Wushang's hide, but the desiccated corpse might not.
Lu Yin was taking a gamble, as he had no other choice. This desiccated corpse was too strange.
The monkey did not have time to feel sorry for the desiccated corpse as it dragged Lu Yin towards a warship in outer space.
As for the desiccated corpse, its head was covered by Progenitor Wushang's hide, and it was frozen in space.
In front of them, beams of light shot over, and the monkey roared, "How dare you attack me! I'll fight you to the death!" It seemed to erupt with all of its potential as it forcibly dodged the beams of light and charged into one of the warships, smashing a large hole in its hull.
Inside the warship, the Darkstar Gorge cultivators all charged towards Lu Yin. Lu Yin was wearing his universal armor, and he raised his hand and unleashed Thirty Stacks, causing the warship to crack apart. An Explorer tried to slash at him with his blade, but Lu Yin crushed the blade before grabbing the Explorer by the neck and slamming him into the bottom of the ship.
Lu Yin did not have the time to waste on these people, and he released his domain to search for a suitable location for the ship. He then violently smashed through the walls to search for the ship.
In outer space, the desiccated corpse was still frozen in place, not moving at all. It opened its eyes and stared at Progenitor Wushang's hide. Anyone who saw Progenitor Wushang's hide would be intimidated, but the desiccated corpse would not close its eyes, nor would it remove Progenitor Wushang's hide. It had formed a vicious cycle.
Lu Yin found a personal spacecraft, and although it was not an Aurora, it was not much slower than a radiant-grade Aurora. The only difference was that it could not be upgraded.
Lu Yin boarded the spacecraft and charged into outer space, heading towards the coordinates that he had agreed upon with Wendy Yushan.
There were several warships in outer space, but none of them were able to stop him. By the time Lu Yin entered the planet, the encirclement had already disappeared.
They could only watch helplessly as Lu Yin boarded his spacecraft and left. In outer space, several Explorers appeared. They were all powerhouses who had been tasked with guarding the warships, and now that Lu Yin had escaped, they could not report back to their superiors. They had to find the Hunter who had been chasing after Lu Yin.
In outer space, the desiccated corpse covered with Progenitor Wushang's hide attracted a few people's attention.
Several Explorers flew over to the desiccated corpse, and when they saw Progenitor Wushang's hide, they felt dizzy and fell to the ground. The next moment, the warship fired a beam of light at the desiccated corpse. The people inside the warship thought that the Explorers had been attacked.
