“Most of these people have no idea what these figures actually are. We need to tell them or else things will become very dangerous for everyone,” Wen Sansi said as he panted. He stared at the shattered power vessel that he was holding with a bit of regret. This power vessel had been capable of defending against an Envoy’s attack, and there were only a few such treasures within the Wen family, and he had just used one up like that.
Lei Nü raised a hand and wrote out some information regarding the remnant spiritual force figures with her star energy. Anybody who stepped onto Mount Shaoyou would see her message.
On the peak of Mount Taihe, seven people were staring at the figure that was training Void Rip. They were carefully observing the figure, though none of them could determine what was actually happening.
Among the seven people were the Sword Sect’s Liu Shaoqiu and Elder Li, as well as Ling Gong. All of them were watching in silence.
Suddenly, an independent cultivator arrived and exclaimed, “This battle technique looks familiar.”
Elder Li and the others glared at the man as soon as he spoke; what an idiot!
The gray figure practicing Void Rip was disturbed by the sound, and it immediately used Void Rip on the person who had spoken. The independent cultivator had no time to react at all before his head fell to the ground.
Elder Li immediately attacked the figure. The elder had a power level over 400,000 while the gray figure only had the strength of an Enlighter. Thus, Elder Li was completely unconcerned.
Liu Shaoqiu and the others looked similarly relaxed, especially Ling Gong as she had no fear of fighting against anyone within her generation.
Surprisingly, the gray figure was extremely powerful, and not even Elder Li was able to match it. Things only grew worse when a Void Rip nearly sliced off Elder Li’s arm. The man’s sword was also unable to harm the figure, and his sword even shattered.
The elder suddenly felt like he was facing Lu Yin once again.
Elder Li had briefly fought with Lu Yin when Lu Yin had first visited the Sword Sect, and Elder Li truly hated the feeling of being pushed back by someone with a lower cultivation realm.
The gray figure pressed a hand down. It was using Cloud Fall.
Elder Li was frozen by the secret technique and found that he could not move. The figure then lifted a hand and used Void Rip.
Suddenly, Ling Gong rescued Elder Li. “Let’s get out of here, or else we won’t be able to see him train again.”
Elder Li agreed, and the two left with Liu Shaoqiu and the others.
With no one left on Mount Taihe, the grey figure resumed training.
The people all intended to return again later.
Ling Gong was very interested in Void Rip.
There were other people observing the gray figures that were cultivating spiritual force on another mountain. Of the various remnant spiritual force figures throughout the Celestial Frost Sect’s ruins, the gray figures in this particular area were the most valuable, as this was where the Daynight clan had acquired most of their battle techniques. Many people were interested in watching the figures, but people kept accidentally disturbing them, which resulted in many independent cultivators being killed.
The most deaths occurred on Mount Punishment, and anybody who stepped onto that mountain was unable to leave alive.
Mount Punishment had recorded an incident where two Progenitors had clashed with each other, and even Elder Jiu Shen had been badly injured by their movements.
The Celestial Frost Sect’s ruins occupied a massive area, but the ruins still did not encompass the entire sect of the past, as certain sections had been taken to the Perennial World.
There was a great hall off in the distance, which was where the Celestial Frost Sect had held their most important discussions.
The atmosphere within the great hall was odd. There were a few figures silently sitting on chairs around a table, and there was also a figure at the head of the table that was talking. The other figures all occasionally nodded, which made it clear they were discussing something.
Nightking Dijiang, Liu Ye, and Fei Hua were all in the hall, but none of them dared to talk or move. They each sat stiffly in place, waiting for the figures to finish their meeting.
This place had clearly been the Celestial Frost Sect’s great hall and was where they had held their most important meetings. Thus, the figures gathered in the hall had all once been elders of the Celestial Frost Sect. Since the three Envoys were aware of just how powerful the Celestial Frost Sect was, they understood that the figures present in the hall had to have earned the right to be there. Each one clearly had a power level of more than a million, and some were possibly even Semi-Progenitors.
All three people were terrified of being discovered if they even moved.
Nightking Dijiang also understood the danger that they were in at this moment. All three sat quietly in place despite their desire to fight each other.
***
A piece of blood stained cloth fluttered down Mount Punishment.
Lu Yin looked up; someone else had died. Anyone who visited Mount Punishment would die, and the last person had been lucky enough to leave a bit of cloth behind.
This was also probably why Mount Punishment was stained with blood; the place was basically hell.
A few days later, Lu Yin suddenly saw some cultivators.
When he saw them, they were at the foot of the mountain. Most of the people who entered the Celestial Frost Sect’s ruins would climb to the peak of Mount Punishment before moving to where Lu Yin and Elder Jiu Shen were. However, these cultivators had taken a different route and gone around Mount Punishment. This was how they had managed to avoid the fight between Progenitors and stayed alive long enough to meet Lu Yin.
The cultivators were shocked when they saw Lu Yin, and they immediately tried to escape. However, Lu Yin dragged them back.
“Bro, why are you trying to run away? I won’t eat you,” Lu Yin joked.
The cultivator timidly looked at Lu Yin and reluctantly answered, “Lu- Alliance Leader Lu, I don’t have any desire to fight with you for an inheritance. I’m just passing by.”
“Passing by? Passing by the Daynight clan? You’re quite brave,” Lu Yin teased.
The cultivator asked, “Erm, Alliance Leader, can I please leave now?”
“How did you get here?”
“I walked.”

“Not that. I’m asking if you had any issues on your way here.”
“No.”
Lu Yin guessed that the battle between the Progenitors only affected the mountain’s peak and that the base was unaffected. This meant that he could leave now and that there was no need to wait for Elder Jiu Shen to recover.
“What’s the situation right now? How many people are out there? How did you find out about this place?” Lu Yin asked.
The cultivator told Lu Yin that information regarding the Celestial Frost Sect had been posted on the network. “A lot of people have already entered, and I even saw a few disciples from the Sword Sect. Oh, there were also some people from the Cosmic Sea and even from the Hall of Honor. I saw Lei Nü.”
Since Lei Nü was present, it meant that the Hall of Honor was also eying the ruins.
Most people were ignorant of the Celestial Frost Sect, which meant that somebody had to have intentionally leaked information onto the network. Had it been someone from the Daynight clan? Were they hoping that someone would rescue them? That was too naïve.
“Fine, you can go now, but you have to tie a string,” Lu Yin tied a string around the cultivator’s wrist.
The cultivator was completely confused. “Alliance Leader Lu, what’s this for?”
“Nothing much. Go on.”
The cultivator was terrified, as he felt that Lu Yin was using him, but the man could not figure out how he was being used. He was just about to leave, but he kept feeling that something was wrong whenever he looked at the string; should he really leave?
He carefully sneaked a peek at Lu Yin, and the man trembled when he noticed Lu Yin watching him. The man decided to leave and stop overthinking matters.
He rushed away from Mount Punishment at his top speed.
Lu Yin held the string and was able to sense the cultivator’s speed. Lu Yin wanted to use the string to determine whether the man encountered any danger while leaving. If everything proved safe, Lu Yin would be able to leave as well, but if there was danger, he would have to wait for Elder Jiu Shen.
The cultivator soon left Mount Punishment, and he was smart enough to not try to remove the string, as he also knew that he was not capable of doing so.
After leaving Mount Punishment, the string fell off, and the cultivator sighed in relief. He looked back before almost instantly fleeing. He had no desire to ever meet Lu Yin again for the rest of his life.
“Are you going to leave?” Elder Jiu Shen asked.
Lu Yin answered, “Elder, it’s safe to leave, and I want to go somewhere.”
Elder Jiu Shen opened his eyes. “There are many places here like Mount Punishment. How do you intend to protect yourself if you encounter a Progenitor’s power again?”
Lu Yin shrugged. “I won’t be that unlucky, right?”
“The Celestial Frost Sect was like the Daynight clan in the past. They controlled an entire flowzone and there is no way they were any less scheming than the Daynight clan. Since they left these ruins behind, they would never allow others to easily receive their inheritances. It’s even possible that these ruins were left here for the Daynight clan to protect themselves. Nightking Dijiang must have had a specific reason for rushing in here, and it won’t be possible for you to obtain a better inheritance than him or kill him in this place,” Elder Jiu Shen explained.
Lu Yin understood what the elder was saying. He had already been shaken by the situation on Mount Punishment, and he no longer had any plans of going after Nightking Dijiang. The worst case scenario was for him to simply post someone outside the ruins to keep watch for Nightking Dijiang. At this time, Lu Yin’s goal was to find the place pulling at his fatesand. He had a feeling that there was much more to discover concerning fatesand.
He had heard from Xiao Shi that collecting enough fatesand could attract Destiny. Destiny had been a powerhouse from the same era as the God of Death, and both had been ancient powerhouses that defied reason. If what Xiao Shi had said was true, could whatever had pulled at Lu Yin’s fatesand be related to Destiny?
That person had been an Ancient Progenitor.
Lu Yin had already experienced the power of the God of Death, which felt nearly invincible. What about Destiny?
Lu Yin did not want to abandon this opportunity.
“I want to go somewhere. I need to go there,” Lu Yin said firmly.
Elder Jiu Shen answered with resignation. “Alright, let’s go. I’ll go with you.”
Even though Lu Yin was aware that Elder Jiu Shen’s only concern was to protect the pattern on the sole of his foot, Lu Yin still felt touched. “Thank you, Elder.”
Elder Jiu Shen shook his head. He was one of the Cosmic Sect’s strongest powerhouses, and yet he had been reduced to a mere bodyguard here.
Even though he had the protection of Elder Jiu Shen, Lu Yin still left Mount Punishment as quickly as possible. Even a Semi-Progenitor was no different from a normal person against the power of a true Progenitor.
Lu Yin followed the pulling force as he left Mount Punishment, though he also encountered a few cultivators along the way. All the people here anxiously ran away as soon as they saw Lu Yin.
Lu Yin had united the Outerverse, taken control of Blazing Mist Flowzone, destroyed the Daynight clan, and almost taken over Daynight Flowzone. He was a truly powerful person to all the cultivators who saw him.
This was also because the Celestial Frost Sect’s ruins had been exposed by the Great Eastern Alliance. Thus, most people felt like they were thieves randomly stumbling into the master of the house when they saw Lu Yin.
Lu Yin had the same feeling, and he was genuinely annoyed to see so many people. The entire ruins were his!
He could feel that there were remnant spiritual force figures on most of the mountains that they passed by. Lu Yin and Elder Jiu Shen did not check any of the mountains, as they had been traumatized by their encounter on Mount Punishment.
Even though the two did not travel particularly quickly, they still left most of the other cultivators behind. Eventually, they arrived in a barren land. It was clear that a battle had been fought here in the past, and there were no living things even after the passage of so much time.
“It’s at best the strength of a Semi-Progenitor,” Elder Jiu Shen softly commented as he observed the area.
This region encompassed all that they could see. “It should be safe, right?”
