Chapter 3065: Let\'s Be Friends

This was also why Lu Yin was terrified.

Announcing an attack on the Sixverse Association was simply a means of testing Ye Bo and the other True God Guard Captains who cultivated divine energy to ensure that they were all trustworthy. But in reality, the real targets were the Five Spirits Alliance and the Luna Alliance.

Together, the Five Spirits Alliance and the Luna Alliance had eight sequence powerhouses, and those people were Aeternus’s real targets.

Di Qiong, Di Xia, the First Scourge’s powerhouses, as well as experts from the other Scourges were all set to join forces against the Five Spirits Alliance and the Luna Alliance. Their fall was inevitable.

The Sixverse Association had taken out many of the outsider powerhouses allied with Aeternus, and the Aeternals were out for revenge.

Lu Yin ended the Possession, and his consciousness returned to his body.

He let out a deep breath as the full magnitude of Aeternus\'s actions hit him. He finally understood their true goals.

If the Five Spirits Alliance and the Luna Alliance were both destroyed, then Whitecloud City would lose almost all their support, which would leave the city to fend for itself. The Heavens Sect would also lose the support of the two alliances, as the Five Spirits Alliance had a close relationship with Lu Yin. Losing them would cause him to suffer a great loss.

The two alliances had also helped Lu Yin ambush Undying God and invade the First Scourge.

Most importantly for Lu Yin, Ming Yan was frozen in the Ice Spirit Tribe’s Iceheart.

Lu Yin once again felt that he had been incredibly lucky to possess Di Xia at this moment and learn about these plans. If not for this, not only would his identity as Ye Bo have been exposed, but the Five Spirits Alliance and the Luna Alliance would have very likely been destroyed as well, as the Sixverse Association would not have been able to assist them in time.

He never underestimated Aeternus, but he finally understood that, no matter how cautious he was, there were still things that could be hidden from him.

The die had given him a great deal of help.

Lu Yin guessed that Dual Bladeform was also being tested, though there was no way that Chong Gui was included. That man had been held captive by the Heavens Sect for too long.

Now knowing what Aeternus\'s plan was, Lu Yin considered how he should deal with it.

Even if Aeternus openly announced their plan to attack the Five Spirits Alliance and the Luna Alliance, how could the Sixverse Association help protect the two alliances if they didn’t know what the full extent of Aeternus\'s invading forces would be?

Lu Yin himself did not know how strong Aeternus’s attack force would be. All he knew for sure was that Di Qiong and Di Xia would be part of the attack. What kind of powerhouses did the other Scourges have? Who would the First Scourge send? Without knowing the strength of the forces being sent, the Sixverse Association would not be able to protect either the Five Spirits Alliance or the Luna Alliance.

Lu Yin\'s eyes flickered.

Even after thinking for a long time, he could not find any way to proceed. It might be best to simply share the information with Wang Wen and the others and let them find a way.

That\'s right. He looked at his cosmic ring. Di Xia had given Ye Bo a cosmic door. That was their first step in testing Ye Bo, as it allowed him to freely travel to and from the Third Scourge without any worries. This was quite insidious.

If Lu Yin wanted to return to the Heavens Sect, this was actually his best opportunity. He should take advantage of the fact that Di Xia had not yet told Ye Bo about the planned attack on the Sixverse Association. If Lu Yin left the Third Scourge after receiving that news, he would struggle to explain himself.

In that case, the question was, how could he leave? What reason could he give for leaving? Actually, he most likely should not even be able to leave, right?

Ye Bo was supposed to be someone originally from the Perennial World, but people from the Perennial World were not able to locate their home from among the infinite parallel universes. This was because the Perennial World had been split off from the Fifth Mainland.

This placed the people of the Perennial World in an awkward situation. Whenever they visited a parallel universe, they were unable to return home. The only way around that was to leave behind a trace on a coordinate seal.

Ye Bo had been rescued from Aeternus Nation by Di Qiong. How could a fugitive like Ye Bo have a trace left anywhere in the Perennial World? He should be unable to visit any parallel universes, unless he tore the void open and entered one randomly. That was something that no one would do unless they needed to escape from a desperate situation.

After thinking things through, Lu Yin\'s eyes flickered. There was only one way.

Lu Yin stepped out of his tower and looked towards the black Mother Tree. That was where Di Qiong was located. Logically, that should also be where Di Xia and his tower stood. He had a very large tower that greatly exceeded the size of the one given to Ye Bo, and it even surpassed the Seven Skygods’ tower in the First Scourge.

However, Di Xia was not in his tower.

There was no one in the Third Scourge, except Di Qiong, who knew where Di Xia actually was. Actually, Di Xia never stayed in his own tower. Instead, he stayed deep underground close to the Corpse King Monument. No one knew about this aside from Di Qiong and Di Xia himself.

"Di Xia," or "underground," was the name that Di Qiong had given to the corpse king, and the name reflected his preference for staying underground.[1]

Lu Yin stared at the Corpse King Monument and started moving towards it. To reach Di Xia, he needed to go past the Corpse King Monument, but it would be less conspicuous if Ye Bo went to the Corpse King Monument to cultivate.

Lu Yin quickly arrived at the Corpse King Monument, where he proceeded to practice the Corpse King Transformation.

The area near Ye Bo was so quiet a pin could be heard dropping. No one dared to disturb him.

After a few days, Lu Yin casually started walking towards Di Xia. There was nothing unusual about where he was heading, and there were even a few corpse kings going that way as well.

Coincidentally, Lu Yin saw the human traitor who had spoken to him when he had first visited the Corpse King Monument.

The man was stunned to see Ye Bo approaching him, and he immediately turned to run away.

Lu Yin moved forward, easily overtaking the man and cutting him off. "Why are you running?"

The man smiled wryly. "Ah, that, Lord Ye Bo?"

"This isn’t our first time meeting," Lu Yin commented in Ye Bo’s cold tone.

The man\'s face twitched. "You must be mistaken."

Lu Yin stared at the man. "You\'re the genius who mastered the Corpse King Transformation within fifteen years."

The man wanted to slap himself for his loose lips. Why had he spoken to the unknown powerhouse? "Ahem, well, how can I compare to you, Lord Ye Bo? You’re currently ranked fifth on the Corpse King Monument, and you even achieved that after your first time practicing the technique."

"Thank you for the compliment. You seem sincere. Let\'s be friends."

The man was stunned. "You- what are you saying?"

Lu Yin made sure that he appeared genuine as he spoke. "I\'m quite lonely."

The man was stupefied, and he blinked. "You- uh, well, there’s something I need to do, so I need to excuse myself."

Lu Yin reached out and pressed a hand onto the man\'s shoulder. "What\'s your name?"

The man nearly burst into tears. "Lord, please don\'t toy with me! I don\'t dare to be friends with you. I\'m not worthy."

Lu Yin turned to stare off into the distance. "Is that your tower?"

The man nodded, his face showing his anguish.

Lu Yin\'s eyes lit up. "That’s a great location."

The man had no idea what Lu Yin meant by that. What was great about the location?

"Let\'s go. I want to see it."

The man was speechless. "Lord, please let me go. I can\'t take this any more!"

Lu Yin held onto the man\'s shoulder. "I\'ll give you some pointers."

Can I say no? The man wanted to reply, but the searing pain in his shoulder prevented him from even speaking. Is there something wrong with this man? Who asks to be friends right away? Do people in Aeternus even have friends? All of us have betrayed humanity, and who wants to be friends with a traitor?

The man was a peak powerhouse who had joined Aeternus by betraying his civilization. He did not consider himself a good person. Wait a minute, could Ye Bo be here to get revenge?

The more the man considered things, the more nervous and terrified he became. He felt like he had fallen into an abyss.

The "great location" that Lu Yin had mentioned truly was a good location; it just so happened to be very close to where Di Xia was hidden underground.

Lu Yin gave the man an odd look. If he knew that Di Xia was directly beneath his tower, would the man even be able to sleep? He might be plagued by nightmares.

The beautiful maids outside the tower saw the man return, and they immediately bowed to him.

The man felt completely helpless. "Lord Ye Bo, please."

He watched as Ye Bo entered his tower. The man felt like he had very difficult days ahead of him. There was no way Xin Wu would not make some sort of trouble for him.

Lu Yin’s face betrayed nothing as he entered the tower. He immediately proceeded to examine every corner of the place.

The owner of the tower had no idea what was going on, but he did his best to play host to Ye Bo.

Lu Yin studied the man. "How is your mastery of the Corpse King Transformation?"

The man answered immediately, "I’ve barely reached the Red Eye Transformation."

"You\'re being modest."

"No, not at all."

"Let\'s spar."

The man was startled, and the scene of Xin Wu being stomped underground instantly replayed in his mind. He quickly tried to turn down the offer.

However, Lu Yin did not even give the man the chance to speak before grabbing his neck. The man reflexively mobilized his energy reserves in an attempt to resist.

He had cultivated a rather ordinary energy, and it could not even compare to monarch essence. It was rather impressive that the man had been able to become a peak powerhouse.

Lu Yin easily pushed through the man\'s defenses and pressed down on his shoulder. This time, Lu Yin was not gentle, and the man felt a sharp pain. It felt as though half of his body was being crushed. Violence entered his eyes as they turned red, and he threw a hand at Lu Yin’s face as a small weapon appeared in his grip. While the weapon was small, it was exceptionally sharp.

Lu Yin allowed the man\'s attack to land. To the man\'s utter astonishment, Ye Bo was thrown out of the tower by the single attack. The tower shattered, and Lu Yin’s clothes were shredded.

The man landed on the ground. He coughed while holding his shoulder and looking around. Ye Bo charged out of the ground. "Let’s go again."

The man was startled, and he released a power that seemed similar to a Progenitor’s world, but it had no effect before Lu Yin\'s power. The man was smashed into the ground, directly above Di Xia’s location. Lu Yin did not wait, and he chased after the man. As he moved underground, he arrived within range and Possessed Di Xia.

Deep underground, Di Xia’s eyes opened, but at that moment, the corpse king was no longer Di Xia, but rather Lu Yin.

Lu Yin looked up and saw the man falling down, as well as Ye Bo close behind.

Di Xia, controlled by Lu Yin, moved past the falling man and threw an attack straight into the sky.

Lu Yin used this opportunity to return to his body, and he twisted around, tore through the void, and disappeared.

The moment Lu Yin disappeared, the attack from underground struck, and the sky shattered. This was Di Xia’s palm strike, and it was powerful enough to draw Di Qiong’s attention.

The man appeared instantly, and asked, "What\'s going on?"

Di Xia grabbed the peak powerhouse who had fallen underground and turned to face Di Qiong. "I, don\'t know."

Di Qiong frowned and glanced at the man held captive. "Was your attack aimed at this man?"

"The target, of that palm, not him. Ye Bo.”

Di Qiong was taken aback. "Ye Bo? How did he end up here? Did you hit him with your attack? Where did he go?"

"He, reacted quickly. Escaped."

As Di Xia had attacked while under Lu Yin’s control, the corpse king had no memory of launching the attack. However, the Possession had only lasted for a moment, and when Di Xia’s consciousness returned, he had clearly felt himself launching a palm strike, and he had also clearly seen Ye Bo tear through the void to escape.

Di Xia tossed the man to the ground. The man had been knocked unconscious by Di Xia’s palm strike simply brushing past his body.

The man soon woke back up, and he clutched his head. He looked to be in agony.
