Chapter 2033: Chapter 1980

Chapter 1980

Right after Lu Yin spoke, Jin Mie appeared in front of everyone, his body forming out of stellular energy.

Everyone was shocked. “Jin Mie?”

Highsage Leon’s eyes tightened and flickered with a dangerously cold light as he looked at the summoned Jin Mie.

Even though it had been said that the deaths of Elephant King, Rocky, and the other people from his regiments was fated to happen, how could anyone in Leon’s Armada not care about these deaths? They had spent years together as a family, so it was naturally difficult for them to let go.

Cultivators might be ruthless, but they still had emotions. This was true of Big Sis, and of everyone else in Leon’s Armada as well.

“Little Seven, what’s this?” Sister Fei was puzzled.

Highsage Leon replied, “This is Little Seven’s innate gift. Jin Mie’s already dead.”

“I happened to run into him right before I came here. It turns out that he was hiding in Gods’ Origin,” Lu Yin explained in a deep voice.

Ghost Doc nodded. “Revenge. Revenge…”

He ambled out of the room while still talking to himself slowly.

Sister Fei and the others gave Lu Yin looks of gratitude before they also all left the cabin.

After the Champions’ Stage disappeared, Highsage Leon gave Lu Yin a serious look. “I don’t know your real reason behind why you’re building this Tower of the Fifth, but if you have any problems, you need to tell us. Otherwise, you won’t be considered a member of Leon’s Armada any longer. Also, be careful of that Second Nightking. A powerhouse like that won’t be happy serving someone like he’s been doing for you.”

Lu Yin solemnly answered, “I know.”

After leaving Leon’s Armada, Lu Yin asked the Second Nightking to isolate a region of space on the seabed close to the Abyss of the Sea. He needed to go into seclusion.

Lu Yin’s goal during this period of time was to Possess the body of a powerhouse from the Perennial World’s invasion force and hopefully further delay their plans.

Before entering seclusion, Lu Yin brought Sapling out. “Behave yourself and absorb some stellular energy.”

Sapling’s branches tightly wrapped around Lu Yin, and it was clearly reluctant to leave him alone. The light from the small tree’s leaves even flickered, as if it was contemplating Lu Yin’s words.

Lu Yin spent a bit more time coaxing Sapling to listen to him, and eventually, Sapling entered the true universe and began to absorb stellular energy.

Regardless of whether or not Lu Yin would eventually get stellular liquid from Sapling, it would always be good for the tree to absorb stellular energy.

After Sapling was taken care of and a region of space was isolated, Lu Yin set up a sourcebox array and raised a hand. His die appeared, and he tapped it, internally begging six pips to appear.

When the die stopped, Lu Yin saw three pips.

Lu Yin pursed his lips and quickly rolled his die again.

He actually did have things to Enhance, but he could not do it here, as the Second Nightking might be able to sense his actions. It was best to use Enhance in the Timestop Space.

Lu Yin’s second roll resulted in Pilfer, and a sword tumbled out. He picked it up and squeezed it lightly, instantly shattering it. It was trash.

Continue.

The third roll was four pips, and the scenery changed around Lu Yin as he entered the Timestop Space.

After he increased his time in it to almost a year, Lu Yin began to train in the Cosmic Art.

Out of everything in Lu Yin’s repertoire at the moment, it made the most sense for him to train the Cosmic Art. He was very eager to increase his mastery of the cultivation art and eventually be able to use the pattern on the bottom of his foot. Then, he would find out what exactly Progenitor Chen had left behind.

Time passed quickly as Lu Yin recited the Origin Sutra and practiced the Cosmic Art.

After he simulated 42,000 stars, he saw that he only had a short amount of time left before he would leave the Timestop Space.

Lu Yin raised a hand and brought his die out. He tapped it, but he only managed to roll another Pilfer.

After resting the necessary ten days, his next roll was two pips, which was useless. Finally, after resting again, he managed to roll three pips, and Lu Yin’s eyes lit up at this sight.

The two screens of light appeared, and he set the eggshell that he had received from Tian Dou on the top screen. After getting more funds, Lu Yin wanted to Enhance as many defensive treasures as possible, as he never knew when he might need to use them.

The eggshell could supposedly block an attack from someone with a power level of a million, so Lu Yin expected even its first Enhancement to be quite expensive.

Sure enough, the first upgrade cost nearly seven billion star essence alone. It was a lot, but it cost about as much as the upgrade for the Withered Bark or the Netherworld River that Lu Yin had already Enhanced. All of these treasures could affect battles with experts with power levels of over a million.

The second upgrade cost almost 14 billion star essence, which made the total that Lu Yin had spent on the eggshell come to around 20 billion star essence. There was no way that he could upgrade it a third time.

As Lu Yin stared at the eggshell, he suspected that it would be able to defend against attacks with power levels of almost 1.2 million. In other words, even the Second Nightking might struggle to break through the eggshell after its Enhancement.

After putting the eggshell away, Lu Yin pulled out his Withered Bark that contained properties of time. He had already upgraded it twice, and he was hoping to improve it a third time to see what would happen to it.

After throwing out a river of star essence, the Withered Bark slowly fell through the two screens of light, finally coming out the bottom.

Lu Yin stared at it and found that the power vessel had become rather blurry to look at. He reached out to touch it, but it felt like his hand could not touch it at first. He realized that it was not distorted light that was making the Withered Bark look blurry, but rather distorted time.

This was the property of time that the Withered Bark held.

After it had been Enhanced two times, Lu Yin had noticed that time itself had twisted around the Withered Bark, even if it had not been by very much. Still, this was the power of time, which was beyond the comprehension of even a powerhouse on the level of the Second Nightking. Just what sort of power had Progenitor Ku left behind?

Thinking about this made Lu Yin want to Enhance the Withered Bark yet again.

However, he hesitated right when he was about to try. While he had obtained 100 billion star essence from Shamrock Enterprise, just upgrading two items had depleted 40 billion. Another upgrade would likely completely exhaust Lu Yin’s funds, and how would he be able to Possess anyone after that?

Feeling frustrated, Lu Yin put the Withered Bark away yet again. He needed to put it off until he ran into another windfall. What a pity.

He soon left the Timestop Space, though only a second had passed in the outside world.

Lu Yin had managed to simulate 42,000 stars of the Cosmic Art, which was still less than halfway through the cultivation art’s fifth level.

Neither Progenitor Chen, who had created the cultivation art, nor anyone who had ever trained in the art, had ever managed to cultivate the Cosmic Art as quickly as Lu Yin.

He had only been training in the cultivation art for around twenty years, and in that short amount of time, even a talented disciple like Qiu Shi could only simulate less than a thousand stars. Still, Lu Yin had to admit that he had no idea how many stars Qiu Shi was able to simulate at the moment, but he was absolutely certain that she had not perfected the fourth level of the Cosmic Art yet.

These thoughts drifted through Lu Yin’s mind and left him excited as he rolled his die again.

After spinning, it slowly came to a stop on six pips, and Lu Yin’s eyes lit up. He became excited as his consciousness entered the strange space that was filled with orbs of light.

He looked around, quickly found a dazzlingly bright ball, shot over to it, and merged with it.

Lu Yin had Possessed many people, and given his experience, the brilliant orb that he had merged with should represent an expert with a power level of over 900,000, possibly even approaching a million. Such a person would be regarded as an expert wherever they went in the entire universe.

Lu Yin felt excited as his Possession started.

Countless memories flooded into his mind as Lu Yin’s eyes snapped open. He saw an unfamiliar place. He was in the Meng clan’s territory in the Sacred Weave.

Lu Yin had managed to Possess Meng Fuzi. This man was the most powerful expert in the Meng clan, as he was a five-tribulation Envoy. He was indeed an expert with a power level of over 900,000.

However, the Meng clan was a strange group, as everyone in it cultivated the Dream Sutra, which meant that all of them spent most of their time sleeping.

This was also how the Green and White Sages had managed to infiltrate the Meng clan and defile so many of their women.

Kui Luo had publicized their actions, which had sent a massive shockwave through the entire Sixth Mainland. The Green and White Sages had fled from the Daosource Sect after their actions were exposed, and no one knew where they had gone.

Lu Yin had Possessed Meng Fuzi, and when he came across the man’s memory of this recent event, he felt the man’s hatred. It had not dimmed in the least.

The entire Meng clan had been investigated, and they found that the Green and White Sages had defiled many of their women. The clan was full of people who did not actually possess the Meng clan’s blood. This scandal had taught them a tragic lesson.

Lu Yin let out a long breath. Anyone who suffered such this level of disgrace and humiliation would experience the emotions of the man that he had Possessed.

However, Lu Yin could not gain much from Possessing Meng Fuzi. This elder spent almost all of his time sleeping and cultivating, which meant that he barely interacted with anyone.

Lu Yin quickly ended the Possession. After all, the more powerful the target was, the more costly the Possession would be. He did not want to waste all of his star essence on Possessing such a person.

Additionally, Lu Yin had felt Meng Fuzi’s hatred for the Green and White Sages, and having the same emotion well up within himself due to the Possession was a very uncomfortable sensation.

Still, Lu Yin had learned the Dream Sutra.

He recalled that this was the same cultivation art that Sleeping Prince, who had ranked 100 on the Top 100 Rankings of the Innerverse, had used. Lu Yin had no idea who had the more complete version of the cultivation art, or how it had even managed to be distributed to both Mainlands.

His consciousness returned to his own body, and he quickly checked his cosmic ring, heaving a sigh of relief when he saw that only around 3 billion star essence had been used.

While 3 billion star essence sounded like an astronomical sum, as far as Lu Yin was concerned, it was a bargain for the opportunity to Possess an expert with a power level of over 900,000. Such a Possession would burn through star essence at a shocking rate, and even a single second could use up hundreds of millions of star essence.

Six pips was incredibly expensive to roll.

Lu Yin suddenly felt that the resources that he had taken from Shamrock Enterprise was not enough.

It was possible that the only forces in the entire Fifth Mainland that could support Lu Yin’s expenditures were the Hall of Honor and the Mavis family.

After a brief recovery, Lu Yin raised his hand to continue rolling his die. He tapped it with a finger, and it slowly spun around before eventually stopping on five pips.

Gift Copy was a useless roll, and this was also Lu Yin’s fourth roll, which meant that he needed to rest for ten days.

He used this time to truly rest. When considering his time in the Timestop Space, he had been training for almost an entire year, so a ten day break was not unreasonable.

Those ten days passed in the blink of an eye. Lu Yin lifted his head, watched as his die appeared, and then resumed rolling.

As it gradually came to a stop, he saw three pips. Again. One pip. A piece of paper fell out, and Lu Yin checked it. It turned out to be a loan agreement, but for a loan that had already been repaid. Why had the contract not been returned to the client? What was their name?

Seeing that the name was merely a code, Lu Yin realized that he was wasting his time, so he tossed the paper away and resumed rolling his die.

His next roll was Gift Copy again, which was still useless. Finally, he rolled Timestop, and he returned to the Timestop Space.

With that, Lu Yin immediately resumed training the Cosmic Art. This cultivation art took an extremely long time to master.

Almost a year later, Lu Yin exited the Timestop Space after managing to simulate 46,000 stars.

He had once again rolled his die four times, which meant that he needed to rest for another ten days.

A short distance away, the Second Nightking glanced over to where Lu Yin was isolated. This was rather odd; if the youth was training, then why were there no stellular energy fluctuations?

The old man looked elsewhere at Sapling who had happily taken root in the true universe and was contentedly absorbing stellular energy. Regardless of how much stellular energy the tree sucked up, there was no reaction from the true universe at all.

Seeing this roused the Second Nightking’s envy. Who would not wish to be able to absorb stellular energy so boldly?

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from “.com”.

This sapling was so lucky.

The Second Nightking once again realized that Lu Yin possessed many bizarre treasures.

Ten days later, Lu Yin raised a hand and brought his die back out to continue rolling.

Three pips. Five pips. Six pips.

Lu Yin was just about to roll the die again when he realized that he had just rolled Possession. His consciousness quickly returned to that strange space.

He looked around and quickly found a bright orb that was rather close by. This ball was neither too bright nor too dim, and it most likely belonged to someone with a power level of about 800,000, which suited Lu Yin perfectly.

Seeing this, Lu Yin did not hesitate to merge into the light.
