"His name is Lu Yin?" Zhiyi asked.
Autumnfrost Qing nodded. "Yes."
"Pass down my orders. Everyone from the Sixth Mainland is to capture Lu Yin in my name, and they can only capture him alive. I will personally recommend anyone who is captured to the Blood Ancestor and give them a chance to acknowledge him as their master," Zhiyi announced loudly.
Everyone was excited, as acknowledging the Blood Ancestor as their master was the dream of countless cultivators from the Sixth Mainland. Even Shang Rong and Nan Yanfei were excited. Who would not want to acknowledge the Blood Ancestor as their master? Even if it was just a one-in-a-billionth chance, everyone would fight for it with their lives.
The Blood Ancestor was one of the three people with the highest status in the Sixth Mainland. Even just one encounter with him was enough to make one famous throughout the Sixth Mainland.
Everyone's blood rushed to their heads as they stared fixedly at Lu Yin's image. This person was their shortcut to the future.
Zhiyi's gaze was deep. In her heart, Lu Yin's value far surpassed the Ten Arbiters and even the outcome of the battle in the thunderstorm zone. She did not care too much about the two secret techniques that he had, as some of them were only passed down to a single person. Besides, she also had her own secret techniques. What she cared about the most was this person's physique. Why did he not care about generating Genesis Energy?
Generating Genesis Energy was a mystical technique of the Sixth Mainland's Daosource Sect, and there were very few people who cultivated it. However, anyone who successfully cultivated it could consider themselves invincible. Lu Yin's complete disregard for generating Genesis Energy gave Zhiyi a glimmer of hope.
Unfortunately, the Ten Arbiters had not appeared, or else she would definitely have been able to capture this person. However, whether or not she could capture him now depended on luck.
Any news that involved a Progenitor would definitely spread as quickly as possible.
Soon, all of the Sixth Mainland's cultivators in the thunderstorm zone received the news. If they could capture Lu Yin, they would have a chance to meet the Blood Ancestor.
The rumors became more and more exaggerated, and by the time the news left the thunderstorm zone, it had already become about capturing Lu Yin to become the next Daosource Three Skies and acknowledge the Blood Ancestor as their master.
In just a few days, the news had completely shaken the Cosmic Sea, and all of the Fifth Mainland's cultivators knew about it. Lu Yin's name had spread in the shortest amount of time.
There was a strange place in the Cosmic Sea that had a red color as far as the eye could see. The seawater here was hot, and magma flowed beneath the surface.
Countless streaks of sword qi surged and wantonly swept through the area. They were all experts from the Sword Sect.
On the other side, the cultivators of the Sixth Mainland were not weak either.
Liu Shaoqiu gripped his sword's hilt tightly as fresh blood dripped down his wrist. His opponent was a disciple from an Imprinter family from the Blackblood Realm. His innate gift, bloodline, and battle imprint were all perfect, and he was also an Explorer like Liu Shaoqiu. The two had been fighting for a long time.
"Your Thirteen Swords is indeed powerful, but it's impossible for you to defeat me."
Liu Shaoqiu gripped his sword hilt tightly, his gaze unwavering. "I'll give it a try." The Sixth Mainland had invaded, and the entire Sword Sect had retreated to the Cosmic Sea. Over the past few years, Liu Shaoqiu had been constantly battling the cultivators of the Sixth Mainland. His title was General Qiu, and he had narrowly escaped death numerous times. He had long since become indifferent to life and death.
From the moment the Sword Sect retreated to the Universe Ocean, he had no intention of returning alive.
At that moment, a strange fish swam past his feet. Its body was long and narrow like an arrow, and there was something in its mouth. It was a messenger fish, a specialty of the Cosmic Ocean.
In the Cosmic Ocean, a gadget's signal was intermittent, and it was not easy to use. Most messages were transmitted by messenger fish, and they had no natural enemies in the Cosmic Ocean. No creatures ate them, so they were the most suitable for transmitting messages. They were also extremely fast, comparable to an Enlighter's.
Liu Shaoqiu and the disciple moved at the same time to grab the messenger fish, but it was too far away from Liu Shaoqiu and was caught by the disciple. He took the letter out of the fish's mouth and looked at it. His eyes widened, and he could not hide his ecstasy.
Liu Shaoqiu was puzzled.
On the other side, the disciple showed the letter to Liu Shaoqiu. "Do you know this person?"
The letter contained an order that Zhiyi had issued to the cultivators of the Sixth Mainland, and it contained Lu Yin's image.
When Liu Shaoqiu saw Lu Yin's image, he was shocked. More than five years had passed, and he had been immersed in the battlefield for so long that he had forgotten about Lu Yin. A day without him felt like three autumns, and five years on the battlefield felt like a century. The battle from back then had been so distant that he had gradually forgotten about it. But now, this person had appeared in front of him again.
"It seems like you know him. The Daosource Three Skies have issued an order to capture this person, and anyone who can capture him alive will have the opportunity to become the Blood Ancestor's disciple. If you can help me capture this person, I'll guarantee that you will join the Sixth Mainland, and I'll make sure that you have a meteoric rise in the future," the disciple announced.
A cultivator from the Sixth Mainland said the same thing in front of Liu Xiaoyun.
Liu Shaoyun stared blankly at Lu Yin's image. This person really was like a ghost that refused to leave. He had managed to return even after the Innerverse and Outerverse had been cut off, and he had even attracted the attention of the Daosource Three Skies. They had paid such a huge price to capture him, so he must have done something extremely disgusting. Damn it!
The Cosmic Sea's weather was ever-changing, and there were many strange places. There was one area where meteorites rained down from the sky. No one knew where they came from, but there were countless meteorites crashing down at any given moment. These meteorites were quite powerful, and even Hunters did not want to be hit by them.
Wen Sansi looked at the meteorites raining down from the sky. He then looked into the distance with a messenger fish in his hand.
Behind him, Mira was still as seductive as ever. Her long white hair cascaded down to her bare feet, and she looked extremely seductive.
Wen Qian'er and Han Chong stood next to her. One was an elite of the Wen family, and she had even participated in the battle for Planet Pyrolyte. The other was the student leader of Astral-2 and the Realm Master of the Asura Realm, and he had once drawn a picture of the world.
Both Wen Qian'er and Han Chong had experienced several years of war and had narrowly escaped death. Now, they had finally reached Wen Sansi's side and were qualified to stand here.
Wen Sansi passed the messenger fish to Mira. "Take a look."
Mira was puzzled. She took the fish and opened it, and her pupils shrank. "How is this possible?"
Wen Qian'er and Han Chong were both very curious.
Mira showed them the fish, and both of them were shocked.
They knew who Lu Yin was, and they all had different thoughts about him.
Back when Lu Yin was an unequaled Limiteer, Wen Qian'er had wanted to challenge him, but her dreams had been shattered by Ling Que. The Wen family had invited Ling Que to help them fight on Planet Pyrolyte, but Ling Que's strength had left Wen Qian'er powerless. Mu Rong, who had appeared right after, terrified her. However, both of them had been defeated by Lu Yin. Lu Yin's appearance on Planet Pyrolyte seemed to have settled everything. That person had unequaled strength, and he was at least an unequaled Limiteer.
However, over the past few years, she had been tempered by the battlefield, and she had long since forgotten about this person. Ling Que, Mu Rong, Liu Shaoqiu, Han Fei, Nightqueen Yanqing, and the others had all revealed their talents and been conferred titles. Lu Yin, who had once suppressed them to the point of suffocation, had already been forgotten. This person was still enjoying life in the Outerverse, and they should have long since left him behind.
But now, they had actually seen him again, and his appearance was accompanied by the name of the Daosource Three Skies. Whether it was in the Sixth or Fifth Mainland, the Daosource Three Skies were the pinnacle of power. They had heard too many rumors that the Daosource Three Skies were about to appear, but they had all been false alarms. Now, the Daosource Three Skies had truly appeared in the Cosmic Sea, and this person was actually able to attract the attention of the Daosource Three Skies.
Needless to say, she knew what this meant. This person had not been left behind by them, and he had even grown to the point where even the Daosource Three Skies had issued an order to capture him.
Han Fei's emotions were complicated, but he did not think too much about it. He had known from the start that this person would not have remained dormant. A person who had dared to challenge the Daynight clan after just a few years of cultivation was not surprising at all.
Mira's emotions were the most complicated, as she was the one who had brought Lu Yin out of Earth. If not for her, this person might have already been killed by someone from the Great Yu Empire who wanted to curry favor with some of the nobles. It could be said that she had single-handedly brought up a freak who had shocked the universe. She had once had high hopes for Lu Yin, but that was only because he had joined the Astral Combat Academy or because he had revealed his talents.
That was all. She had felt that even that little bit of hope was impossible, as it was far too difficult. However, as Lu Yin walked step by step towards the peak, she had experienced what it meant to be unstoppable.
Her experiences on the battlefield over the past few years had also caused her to forget about this person. How could someone who was content to enjoy life in the Outerverse catch up to people like her who had been tempered by life and death situations on the battlefield? But now, she was at a loss. This person was still unstoppable.
Wen Sansi looked up with a smile on his face. The two people in the Thunderstorm Region must have seen this person. Interesting, as even Wen Sansi himself had almost forgotten about this person. He believed that after so many years of life and death battles, the people who had once competed with this person would have forgotten about him as well. This person was truly destined to appear. Perhaps he would also participate in that competition!
The sea roared as hundreds and thousands of cultivators knelt on one knee, facing a man who stood tall in the sky. The man's long black and white hair fluttered in the wind, with a hint of gray in the middle. He had a valiant appearance and was filled with dignity. Just by standing there, the void was unable to bear his presence, and he gave off a feeling that he could not be defied.
This man was Nightking Zhenwu, one of the Ten Arbiters.
"Bro, this Lu Yin actually appeared. How did he come to the Innerverse?
And why did he attract the attention of the Daosource Three Skies? "Nightqueen Yanqing asked as she stood behind Nightking Zhenwu. She could not figure out how this person had appeared.
Nightking Zhenwu clasped his hands behind his back. "If he appears, then so be it. It's even better that he's here. Then we'll settle everything that happened back then."
At a certain seabed in the Cosmic Sea, Grandini Mavis and Lulu Mavis were hiding. "Why are these people trying to capture us?" Lulu asked with a headache.
Grandini Mavis rolled her eyes. "You're asking me, but who am I supposed to ask? You must have done something that angered the heavens."
Lulu was furious. "You're the one who angered the heavens. I'm a beautiful young lady who's loved by everyone."
Grandini Mavis immediately mocked her.
Above their heads, cultivators from the Sixth Mainland would occasionally fly past.
At this moment, a messenger fish flew past them. Grandini Mavis was extremely fast, and she reached out to grab it, but the fish was even faster.
Lulu's eyes suddenly changed, and the messenger fish that had been swimming off into the distance suddenly turned back. Lulu had a smug look on her face as she took out the letter in the fish's mouth and looked at it. She was stunned. "There's someone even more ruthless."
Grandini Mavis looked at the letter and was shocked. "Lu Yin?
Wasn't he in the Outerverse?
Why is he back?
He even made the Daosource Three Skies pay such a huge price to capture him alive. Lulu, he's even more troublesome than you are. "
"You're the troublemaker. Your whole family is troublemaker."
"My whole family is your whole family. We Mavis are all from the same source."
"Don't spout nonsense. Be careful not to be overheard."
"Shh …"
…
