Chapter 1737: Flourish

Chapter 1681: Flourish

“Imprison Emperor Luo?” Ling Qiu was flabbergasted. She was currently on a call with Liu Qianjue, Mountain God, and Wen Zizai.

“That’s right. Lu Yin’s headed towards Gaia’s Swamp with Liu Ye and Fei Hua to imprison Emperor Luo,” Mountain God said.

Ling Qiu asked, “Didn’t Emperor Luo surrender?”

Liu Qianjue replied, “Lu Yin doesn’t trust Emperor Luo since the Ross Empire declared war on the Great Yu Empire when he was studying in the Astral Combat Academy. That war caused great damage to the Great Yu Empire, and when the Great Eastern Alliance attacked Daynight Flowzone and the Blaze Realm, the Ross Empire also actively tried to stop their efforts.”

“Then why didn’t he just kill Emperor Luo?” Ling Qiu asked.

Wen Zizai said, “Lu Yin is different from other people. He doesn’t care solely about his own hatred, but also about the bigger picture. An Envoy could be very useful, so the best choice is to imprison Emperor Luo in Gaia’s Swamp. It’s also possible that Emperor Luo possesses something that Lu Yin needs.”

“Not everyone qualifies to be imprisoned in Gaia’s Swamp. Emperor Luo hasn’t committed any terrible crimes, so why would he qualify?” Mountain God complained.

Wen Zizai glanced over, but he did not bother answering.

Liu Qianjue spoke up instead. “This shows Lu Yin’s influence within the Hall of Honor. Even though Shang Qing is the Hall of Honor’s First Honor Chosen, he’s not as powerful or as influential as Lu Yin. Lu Yin can have anyone locked up in Gaia’s Swamp simply because he has the Chief Justice’s bell.”

Mountain God grew furious. “He’s gone too far! Should we do something?”

“Of course we should.” Ling Qiu hated both the Cosmic Sect and Lu Yin. She had been badly deceived, but she could do nothing to the Cosmic Sect. This meant that Lu Yin was the sole target of her frustrations. “Since only Liu Ye and Fei Hua are with Lu Yin, doesn’t that mean that Chen Huang is still in the Great Eastern Alliance? Where is the Envoy giant? We should go kill him.”

“I’ve sent people to investigate, but they haven’t found him yet,” Liu Qianjue answered. “Also, after Long Yi’s death, Lu Yin will be on guard. Since he had people hide Chen Huang’s whereabouts, he might actually attack our flowzones at this time. We all need to be careful.”

They looked at each other and saw the wariness in each person’s eyes.

They were the only people in the Innerverse capable of defeating Lu Yin. Thus, even though they knew that Cang Zhou was dead and that they could easily take control of Chaos Flowzone, they did not bother even looking at it as they were entirely focused on dealing with Lu Yin.

“What’s the situation like with the Daynight clan?” Ling Qiu asked.

Liu Qianjue answered, “What have you uncovered?”

Ling Qiu answered, “Everything seems normal within the Daynight clan. There is nobody from the Great Eastern Alliance monitoring the clan, and there isn’t even anyone from the Great Eastern Alliance in the Celestial Frost Sect’s ruins. The Daynight clan has sealed themselves off and are not accepting any visitors.”

“That’s the same as what we’ve found. Lu Yin did nothing to the Daynight clan. The people of that clan hate him greatly since he’s destroyed their ancestral tablet and Nightking Planet, and it’s impossible for them to be loyal to him. It looks like Lu Yin truly has no control over them and that the Great Eastern Alliance has actually left the Daynight clan,” Mountain God said.

Wen Zizai met Liu Qianjue’s gaze, and they both nodded. “That sounds right.”

Liu Qianjue exclaimed, “It looks like the Second Nightking really scared Lu Yin off, and it’s also possible that the rumors of the Third Nightking returning are true. Once the Third Nightking is back, the Daynight clan will regain their former glory.”

“Then, what should we do about the Daynight clan?” Mountain God asked.

Liu Qianjue spoke up, saying, “The most important thing at this point in time is to force the Great Eastern Alliance out of the Innerverse. Even if the Third Nightking returns, he won’t be able to do anything to us as the Hall of Honor will be keeping an eye on him. Compared to the Third Nightking, Lu Yin is a much greater threat.”

“We need to keep searching for Chen Huang and work to eliminate all of the Envoys around Lu Yin.”

“There’s also Elder He from the Sea King’s Dome. He’s helped Lu Yin in the past.”

“We won’t let any of them go.”

“We’ll see what he can do without any Envoys.”

“Everyone, aside from eliminating his Envoys, we also need to shut down all trade and any interactions with the Great Eastern Alliance. We need to make them the entire Innerverse’s enemy. Our war has begun.”

…

A spacecraft left First Flowzone and made its way towards Venom Flowzone, carrying Elder Lianxin and Li Zimo.

“Master, the Divine Venom Dynasty doesn’t ever get involved in outside politics, and they didn’t even participate when the Sixth Mainland invaded. Will they actually help us?” Li Zimo asked.

Elder Lianxin stared upwards. “They’re not helping us, but rather themselves. Lu Yin is too ambitious, and he’s different from the Sixth Mainland. The Sixth Mainland is the Fifth Mainland’s sworn enemy, but Lu Yin is doing something completely different, which means that his actions are threatening the Divine Venom Dynasty as well. As long as Qing Shaohuang is no fool, he will join us.”

Li Zimo nodded and fell silent.

The Innerverse had eight great flowzones, and once First Flowzone, Beast Tamers Flowzone, Soulseal Flowzone, Erudite Flowzone, and Venom Flowzone joined hands, they would represent more than half of the Innerverse. The Great Eastern Alliance would have a hard time dealing with such an alliance.

This was especially true since the Venom Flowzone’s poisons were very difficult to avoid.

Li Zimo had already sent word to the Great Eastern Alliance, but he had no idea what Lu Yin’s response would be.

The Innerverse’s eight great flowzones also joined together and cut off all trade with the Great Eastern Alliance. They even stopped all travel in an attempt to isolate Blazing Mist Flowzone.

Lu Yin was already aware of all of this, and it all fell within his expectations. He would deal with everything after returning from Gaia’s Swamp.

He was more concerned with news from the Outerverse: Master Qing Hua had officially replaced Toolwielder Ancestor to become one of the Daosource Sect’s Four Empyreans.

Lu Yin turned off his gadget after glancing through the news.

Qing Hua had no interest in politics. If Madam Hong had not tried to make trouble for the man, he would have never done anything even after becoming one of the Four Empyreans. However, after Madam Hong’s actions, nobody knew what Qing Hua was planning.

Lu Yin could not predict the man’s actions either, but Lu Yin had simply wanted to incite chaos within the Sixth Mainland by using Qing Hua. Lu Yin had no ability to influence the decisions of an Empyrean Imprinter.

By now, Qing Hua had already followed through on what he had promised to Lu Yin by taking Man Li away and returning peace to the Neo-Vestige Sect.

Countless bits of information were sent to Lu Yin’s gadget every day, including some from En Ya. Lu Yin spent his free time browsing through all of the various reports on his gadget.

Blazing Mist Flowzone was located on the eastern side of the Innerverse, so even with Liu Ye and Fei Hua’s speed, they needed ten days to reach Gaia’s Swamp.

Gaia’s Swamp was connected to both the Innerverse and the Cosmic Sea, and it was a truly unique place.

It only took up a small area, but nobody dared to enter it without permission. Gaia’s Swamp was surrounded by a swamp that not even Explorers could pass through due to the dense death energy that surrounded the place.

Lu Yin studied the gray swamp that had even spread into the sky. He was stunned to discover that there was a sourcebox array in this place.

After thinking about it, he realized it made sense. After all, this prison held the Human Domain’s most vicious criminals, so it would be normal to have a sourcebook array in place here. However, he wondered if the array would be enough to suppress the upcoming prison break.

The sourcebox array that was set up in Gaia’s swamp was perpetually active. Lu Yin clasped his hands behind his back. “I am Lu Yin, and I wish to meet with the Warden.”

His voice rang out through Gaia’s Swamp.

A pig sleeping in the swamp rolled over.

“I am Lu Yin, and I wish to meet with the Warden.” The voice echoed throughout the swamp, and many criminals opened their eyes and looked upwards.

The pig sat up, exasperated. “Who dares to disturb me? Lock him up!”

“I am Lu Yin, and I wish to meet with the Warden.” The voice rang out yet again.

The pig finally opened his eyes. “Lu Yin?’

In a corner of the prison, Ze Cu was startled. “Lu Yin?’

A beautiful pair of beautiful eyes opened up within the depths of Gaia’s Swamp. “Lu Yin?”

Lu Yin silently stood next to Liu Ye and Fei Hua just outside of Gaia’s Swamp. They were also accompanied by Emperor Luo, who had been tied up.

Emperor Luo’s eyes flashed. He had voluntarily chosen to be imprisoned in Gaia’s Swamp, as Long Yi’s death had shown Emperor Luo that Liu Qianjue would kill him the moment the opportunity arose. Instead of living in constant fear, Emperor Luo would rather be a prisoner within Gaia’s Swamp.

Lu Yin would also not allow the man to remain imprisoned forever, as he also possessed a route into the Technocracy. This made him extremely valuable to Lu Yin. Even if Lu Yin did not personally want the information, Emperor Luo could still share it with Gaia’s Swamp’s Warden, as he was certain that the Hall of Honor would be interested in the information.

To Emperor Luo, Gaia’s Swamp was not a prison, but a place of refuge.

There was a loud bang, and the swamp trembled. Lu Yin and the others turned around to see an enormous being emerge from the ground. It landed atop of the swamp and met Lu Yin’s gaze.

Lu Yin blinked. He had experienced many things and seen many unique creatures throughout his life, including Gui and the corpse of the ancient centipede. He actually believed that he could no longer be shocked by any terrifying beings, but the creature before him truly astonished him once more even though he had seen the pig before when Possessing Liu Huang.

Lu Yin could simply not imagine that a pig was capable of cultivating. Also, judging by the number of its runes, this pig was quite powerful. How could a pig cultivate?

Liu Ye and Fei Hua were equally astonished. Lord Piggy had absolutely defied their expectations.

Gaia’s Swamp was a dim place that imprisoned many vicious criminals, so it was absurd to see a pink pig in such a place.

Lord Piggy ignored Liu Ye and Fei Hua and faced Lu Yin. He grinned in a disgusting manner. “Isn’t it Alliance Leader Lu? Sorry for not welcoming you sooner. Please enter, Alliance Leader Lu.”

The pig raised a trotter and made a welcoming gesture.

Lu Yin felt rather awkward, as he felt as though he was being invited to enter a pig sty. But without a better option, he cleared his throat and slowly entered the prison.

Liu Ye and Fei Hua glanced at each other, as they also found their situation odd.

“Why are you free enough to visit the Gaia’s Swamp, Alliance Leader Lu? Are you simply passing by? Or perhaps taking a break? Gaia’s Swamp is flourishing at this moment, simply flourishing!” Lord Piggy kept talking nonstop.

Lu Yin and the others were invited to sit on the pig as it moved into the depths of Gaia’s Swamp.

Gaia’s Swamp was surrounded by death energy, but Lord Piggy parted the death energy as it went by so that Lu Yin and the others would not feel anything.

Lu Yin observed his surroundings. The amount of death energy in this place made it feel very comfortable to him.

The amount of death energy present was comparable to what he had seen beneath Aeternus Nation.

Liu Ye commented, “This place feels like Specter Abyss.”

Lu Yin was intrigued. “You’ve been to Specter Abyss?”
