Chapter 846: Setting Off

Chapter 782: Setting Off

Lu Yin opened up a star chart. He first checked the location of the frozen carriage before looking further westward. Tyrannical Weave was just a bit further to the west of the frozen carriage, so did that mean that Deng Pu was planning on heading towards Tyrannical Weave?

Deng Pu possessed True Insight, and so, the entire Outerverse was after him. The fugitive had neither the tools to protect himself nor the resources to cultivate to the Boundless Advanced Lockbreaker level. True Insight was actually useless to him at the moment, and if Lu Yin were in his position, he would absolutely sell off True Insight in order to gain more resources for cultivation. At least he would be able to protect himself then, and selling off True Insight would also divert attention away from him and stop him from being constantly targeted. 

And the best place to sell such a treasure was Millions City. 

“When will access to Tyrannical Weave be restored?” Lu Yin asked. 

Gavin replied, “Anywhere from half a month to a month.”

Lu Yin thought about the timing. There were still about ten days left before the Grand Lu Auction. Even if he waited until after the auction to head out towards Millions City, he would still have enough time. However, if Lu Yin could figure out Deng Pu’s objective, then Saul, Wei Rong, and the others would obviously be able to do so as well. Thus, he had no time to waste.

As he thought about this, Lu Yin told Gavin, “Allow the Nalan family to arrange their own affairs. Don’t force things even if they wish to back out of some of the joint ventures.” 

Gavin murmured his acknowledgement. 

“Also, cooperate with Bei Qing to take care of the auction,” Lu Yin said as he dismissed Gavin. Next, he called Yan Yan and Phantom Sting over before commanding the two Hunters to head to the border of Tyrannical Weave and wait. 

After that, Lu Yin contacted Elder Lohar to inquire about the Hall of Honor’s Enlighter who would be stationed at Zenyu Star. 

“Rest assured, I’ve already sent Akira over to you. He’s my disciple,” Elder Lohar said.

Lu Yin said, “Elder, access to Millions City is about to be restored, and Junior wants to head there. Thus, I will not be able to host Senior Akira. I ask for Elder’s understanding.”

Elder Lohar felt that this trip was slightly odd. “What are you going to Millions City for?” 

Lu Yin did not hide anything, and he quickly explained the situation concerning Deng Pu. There was no need to conceal this sort of information, as the Hall of Honor would definitely be able to find out if they wanted to. 

Elder Lohar sighed. “True Insight is not inferior to a secret technique in the slightest, and the value of the complete True Insight may even surpass that of a secret technique. To you Lockbreakers, any page of True Insight is an unmatched treasure, so I understand. Go on. I will explain things to Akira.” 

“Thank you, Elder,” Lu Yin relaxed. With Akira about to be stationed on Zenyu Star, the capital planet would be safe from any potential problems. Well, at least until the Hall of Honor exposed Lu Yin’s lies. Before that time, they would do everything they could to protect him. 

At this time, the Hall of Honor’s deterrence towards the many powers of the Outerverse had dropped significantly, but it still had the prestige that it had accumulated over many years. Even now, there was no power that dared to treat them lightly. 

Due to the fight at the icy carriage, Deng Pu’s information had been completely leaked out.

On Planet Hydrotink, Felynn excitedly paced back and forth. True Insight was too important to Lockbreakers, and it also carried a symbolic significance to them. Thus, it could not be allowed to land in outsiders’ hands. Otherwise, once the Innerverse and Outerverse were reconnected, there would be too much responsibility for her to bear. 

However, just the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society alone would not be able to snatch back True Insight. 

Felynn did not plan to seek out Lu Yin’s help, as he definitely would not give her True Insight even if he did obtain it. After thinking about her situation, she went to look for Cai Jianqiang. Out of everyone in the current Outerverse Lockbreaker Society, only Cai Jianqiang stood a chance of being able to seize True Insight. He was a powerhouse who had been unrivaled within his own generation. 

Cai Jianqiang did not hesitate, and he immediately agreed to head west and search for Deng Pu. Before he left, he even gave Lu Yin a call and asked the youth to take care of the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society. 

Through Cai Jianqiang’s few interactions with Lu Yin, he had come to appreciate this youth, and his opinion of the Great Eastern Alliance’s leader was completely different from the outside world’s. His impression had become even more favorable after he saw Lu Yin take on Zi Rong’s blade and after they drank together afterwards. 

After receiving Cai Jianqiang’s call, Lu Yin felt a headache coming on, as this was a person who had been unrivaled within his generation. Although Cai Jianqiang was from a different era, Lu Yin was still not confident about how powerful the man actually was. One thing was for sure though, Cai Jianqiang had the strength to defeat an ordinary Enlighter. 

If this powerhouse also participated in the contest for True Insight, the probability of Lu Yin coming out on top would fall sharply. 

Fortunately, it would be the same for the other competitors as well, and Lu Yin’s relationship with Cai Jianqiang was pretty decent. Even if the Hunter was able to snatch True Insight, he would still be under Lu Yin’s observation, and the younger man was confident in eventually being able to get his hands on the treasure. 

When Felynn discovered that Cai Jianqiang had intentionally informed Lu Yin of his plans, her expression was wondrous to behold. She stared at Cai Jianqiang’s reassured expression, but Felynn only wanted to tell the man that his greatest opponent for this mission might actually end up being Lu Yin. However, after thinking it through, she decided to remain silent.

In another part of the Outerverse, Wei Rong contacted the Shadowsword Sect, Endless Borders, Aegis, and the Umbral Butterfly Tribe. He wanted all of them to team up and fight for True Insight. Endless Borders hardly ever participated in the struggles between the various powers, but they were also motivated to obtain True Insight. This was the same as the attack on Sourcepeak Planet, and they agreed to cooperate. Due to their struggle against Lu Yin, Aegis’s strength had been greatly reduced, but they also agreed to cooperate. The Umbral Butterfly Tribe was practically already tied to Wei Rong, and only the Shadowsword Sect was rather hesitant. 

Still, in the end, the sect also agreed to cooperate, mainly because Wei Rong had brought up the threat that Cai Jianqiang posed, and the Shadowsword Sect’s Twin Daemon was not confident in being able to deal with Cai Jianqiang. 

Wei Rong’s expression was deep as he stared out at space and muttered, “True Insight, Millions City.”

Shamrock Enterprises was spread throughout all seventy two weaves of the Outerverse, and the highest seat in the corporation was the Chairman, Yu Mu, who had the authority to oversee all of Shamrock Enterprises’ branches in the entire Outerverse. Immediately below Yu Mu was the Western Chairman, Hoffman, and the Eastern Chairman, Shen Fu.

When news of True Insight’s location spread out, Hoffman received orders from Yu Mu and immediately moved off of his planet and towards Tyrannical Weave. He was also an Enlighter.

***

From Aurora Enterprises, a single, personal spacecraft shot towards Tyrannical Weave at an unimaginable speed. This was an Eonlight-grade Aurora, which was something that nobody else in the Outerverse possessed. The highest graded Aurora that Lu Yin had ever used was only a Blackhole grade.

***

On one particularly bustling planet, universal currency floated to the ground, but nobody picked any of it up. This was the location of one of the Mavis Bank’s largest branches, and anyone who could visit this place was someone with both wealth and respect, and such people could not be bothered by the banknotes falling to the ground. To the people visiting this planet, they were stepping on trash. 

One refined-looking woman with green clothes stepped out and stretched. “It’s been a long time since I moved about. True Insight? I can finally take a look at it. Those old farts from the Lockbreaker Society are too stingy, but fortunately, the Outerverse is isolated from the Innerverse right now.”

After speaking, she vanished in an instant. 

There had been people all around the place where the woman had been standing, but all of them behaved as if none of them had even seen the woman.

***

True Insight was much like the Daynight clan’s stone of inheritance. If the Outerverse was not isolated from the Innerverse, then nobody would dare to scheme over such a precious item out of fear that terrifying Lockbreakers from the Innerverse or even the Neoverse might come. However, since the Innerverse and Outerverse were currently separated, the various great powers felt no apprehension at all, and everyone wanted to take a glance at True Insight’s contents and see just how extraordinary this treasure was for it to rival the value of a secret technique. 

Lu Yin also left Zenyu Star and headed towards Tyrannical Weave. He did not know that the people chasing after True Insight were not members of the group that he was anticipating. Rather, they included powerhouses from organizations like the Mavis Bank, Aurora Enterprises, and other such behemoths. 

If Lu Yin knew this, he might have chosen to stay behind and not attempt to seize True Insight, as all of these heavyweights had terrifying backgrounds. He had already witnessed the power of Neo-Vestige Sect for himself, and they were just an Outerverse power no matter how strong they became. 

Countless powers looked towards Tyrannical Weave and Millions City, waiting for True Insight to appear. 

At this same time, countless people were also looking towards Zenyu Star’s Grand Lu Auction, as it was about to begin. 

The Lu’s Grand Auction had created quite a commotion one month ago when it had first published the list of goods that it was auctioning off. This had lured many influential figures towards Zenyu Star, which had slightly improved Zenyu Star’s economy. 

Ever since the announcement was made, people would occasionally contact Bei Qing, hoping to auction their own goods, which had led to the original number of goods increasing by threefold. 

Bei Qing was exceptionally delighted, as this was very different from simply having a great reputation. This auction had succeeded before it had even begun! Still, it was mainly the items being offered by His Highness that had stunned others. 

At this moment, the benefits of the auction revealed themselves, as somebody was actually trying to sell pyrolyte. Lu Yin was completely astonished when he learned of this. 

When pyrolyte had first appeared, it had captured the attention of the various great powers of the Innerverse. Even if the Innerverse and Outerverse were currently separated, the Daynight clan, the Sword Sect, and other such powers were still exploring the Astral Wilderness, searching for pyrolyte. After the defense of Ironblood Weave had ended, Elder Lohar had explicitly ordered that pyrolyte was a controlled substance and that whoever touched it without authorization would die. Thus, only an extremely small amount of pyrolyte came out of the Astral Wilderness anymore. 

Aegis had tried to occupy Northcastle Weave, which Lu Yin had guessed came out of their desire for pyrolyte. If he hadn’t lacked definitive proof, he would have reported them to Elder Lohar, and he wouldn’t have been forced to struggle so desperately against Aegis.

But at this moment, there was actually someone who was attempting to auction off pyrolyte! Wasn’t this an attempt to frame Lu Yin? This was openly challenging the Hall of Honor. 

Lu Yin had Bei Qing carefully investigate the identity of the seller, and he also quickly contacted Elder Lohar. Lu Yin did not want to inadvertently alert the seller, so he continued to list the pyrolyte as if it were a normal auction item while also investigating the seller’s trail. Elder Lohar also wanted to know if the other party had only managed to obtain a bit of pyrolyte or if they had access to a stable supply chain. 

This whole time, Lu Yin had only thought of framing others. Who cared how they had obtained the pyrolyte—he would simply frame whoever was his enemy. 

In space, a spacecraft steadily cruised along as Lu Yin stared at a screen in front of him. The auction was about to begin. 

Lu’s Grand Auction was presented in a very lavish style, but surprisingly, there was no auctioneer. Instead, all of the auctioned items were displayed on the buyers’ screens, where the items’ uses, prices, and details were all displayed. All of the auction participants had entered the building from below and sat down in their assigned positions, after which the seats then rose into the air, finally bringing them to the main hall of the auction house. 

This was just for the ordinary seats. There were also high-class rooms, but to gain access to those rooms, people had to verify their family or backgrounds before they were allowed to enter. 

People flocked into the main hall, and the occupants of the private rooms also arrived one after another. 

Lu Yin monitored the situation in each suite, and he saw that Zi Xianxian had arrived as well as people from Shamrock Enterprises. There was also Endless Borders’ Di Nuo, and someone from the Nalan family had also arrived. Anyone who was able to access the suites was naturally someone with a befitting background. 

People from corporations that merely spanned across a few weaves were only able to sit in the main hall. 

There were naturally some people who created a fuss, but they were quickly suppressed. After they learned the identities of the people in the suites, nobody dared to object any further. Whoever was able to enter a suite had to be from a great power that spanned the entire Outerverse. 

Bei Qing was very pleased by the turnout, as the suites had all been filled and the main hall was about to be fully occupied as well. Many people were not able to enter the building, but Bei Qing had no choice in the matter. The auction house had been built in the most expensive land of the entire Great Eastern Alliance, and with such property values, their building simply could not hold excessive numbers of people. 

When the first goods to be sold appeared, the atmosphere immediately surged, as the very first item was a natural treasure that could evade danger paired with a work of art by a master from 10,000 years ago. 

As Lu Yin looked at the crowd on the screen and saw how they were contesting against each other until everyone was flush with excitement, he smiled. This was the way forward, as he had many other items that were useless for him. Thus, the Grand Lu Auction would become the channel for him to dispose of such goods in the future. 

The auction proceeded very smoothly, and the bids grew very intense, though Lu Yin was not worried about matters of safety. 

Meanwhile, he had arrived at the location of the icy carriage.
