Chapter 3050: Laughter On The Battlefield
The aspects of ring energy implied that the Infinity Empire could harness the energy that other humans cultivated through motion and then use them to generate even more power. This was supposed to be the foundation of ring energy.
The reason why the people of the Infinity Empire could not cultivate was because the ring energy that they controlled was essentially the same energy that other humans used to cultivate. If the people of the empire tried to cultivate, the additional force within their bodies would cause a conflict that would prevent the ring energy from properly moving around.
Given the choice between self-cultivation and harnessing the power produced by energy that was used in cultivation, the Infinity Empire had opted for the latter. They had forsaken cultivation because they believed that ring energy had more potential and that there was no need to fight for it.
They were essentially using cultivation technology.
“Every type of energy’s movement or impact produces some level of destructive force, and that corresponds to a number of rings. The number of rings that a particular energy can achieve depends on its ring energy utilization rate. Right now, the highest rate the empire has ever seen is twelve rings,” Bu Qing explained.
Lu Yin looked over at the woman. “What would happen if an energy utilization rate of thirteen rings appears?”
“Thirteen ring-” Bu Qing started to answer, but then she realized what Lu Yin had just asked. The reality of the situation struck her, leaving her stunned. “Thirteen rings?”
Beside her, Fei Su, Hong Yi, and the other pilot were all equally stunned, and their faces went blank.
From these reactions, Lu Yin was able to understand a bit more about just how important an energy utilization rate of thirteen rings would be to the Infinity Empire. This information was akin to the shock produced when the Lost Clan had confirmed the existence of a Primeval card, or perhaps the appearance of something that could guarantee a person succeeding in overcoming Dukkha. Such a thing would be an unimaginable temptation for people like the Great Sovereign, and they would not abandon this opportunity, no matter the cost.
In that case...
Lu Yin left and returned to the Heavens Sect. He no longer held any concerns regarding the Infinity Empire.
If they still abandoned the Sixth Mainland with this latest development, Lu Yin would simply accept it. However, since the empire had become aware of both the Fifth and Sixth Mainlands, then in order to prevent them from returning to the Fifth Mainland, Lu Yin decided to leave Ancestor Tortoise at the border of the Astral Beast Domain. After all, if the Infinity Empire wanted to harness this ring energy utilization rate of thirteen rings, they would have no choice but to visit the Sixth Mainland.
It was blatantly obvious that the empire was being pitted against Aeternus, and they were helping the Heavens Sect reclaim the Sixth Mainland. How the Infinity Empire decided to act was up to them.
Also, the four pilots, Bu Qing and the other three, were taken to the Heavens Sect.
When they saw the enormous Heavens Sect ahead of them, Bu Qing and the others experienced an unprecedented shock. They were nearly overwhelmed by the sight.
The Infinity Empire had its own massive imperial city, but it had a completely different style from the Heavens Sect. One was the result of a technological civilization, while the other was the product of a pure cultivation civilization. When a person from a technological civilization witnessed a cultivation civilization that ruled an entire universe, it was an unprecedented shock.
Lu Yin ignored the four captives and let the Second Nightking deal with them. They were completely ordinary humans and unable to escape from even a small hill of the Heavens Sect.
As for Lu Yin, he went to the Sixverse Association to search for Progenitor Smoke.
During the battle in the First Scourge, Progenitor Xi had not killed Progenitor Smoke during their encounter. Progenitor Smoke had merely been knocked unconscious, and Lu Yin had taken her with them when they had retreated from the Scourge. However, Progenitor Smoke had not yet returned to the Origin Universe.
Progenitor Xi’s existence greatly worried Lu Yin, and he wanted to learn more about the woman from Progenitor Smoke.
Unfortunately, the woman had not returned to the Origin Universe so far. The four ruling powers had been eliminated, Xia Shenji had been replaced by one of his clones, Bai Wangyuan had fled to the Cyclic Universe, Wang Fan had betrayed humanity and joined Aeternus, and Long Er had died. What could be keeping Progenitor Smoke away?
She had not even visited the Perennial World to see Ancestor Tianyi.
Lu Yin soon arrived at the New Inn in the Voidforce Universe.
With the Endless Frontier fully under the control of the Sixverse Association, the Aeternals no longer possessed the strength to directly invade the member universes of the Sixverse Association. The border of the Voidforce Universe was peaceful, and the atmosphere within the New Inn was excellent.
Lu Yin altered his appearance before entering. He hoped to find Progenitor Smoke, as she frequently visited the New Inn. She had become good friends with Chou Bao.
“Brother, I haven’t seen you around before. Are you new here?” As Lu Yin sat down, one of the servers quickly approached him and greeted him, which drew many eyes.
Lu Yin smiled. “Yeah, my family sent me here to gain some experience.”
Hahahaha!
Lu Yin’s answer instantly elicited laughter from everyone in the New Inn.
Lu Yin looked puzzled. “What’s wrong?”
The woman laughed. “The owner said that your eyes look familiar.”
Lu Yin smiled as he opened the wine. “Good wine.”
“Do you even know what kind of wine that is?”
“Nope. I actually prefer tea.”
“Kid, talking like that is just asking for a beating.” The woman rolled her eyes. People like this young man did not visit the border. Most of the people she interacted with were either depressed or constantly plagued by inescapable fear, but this young man teased her.
“Those people weren’t wrong. If Lord Lu hadn’t driven Aeternus away, kids like you wouldn’t be able to visit the border at all. I wouldn’t have had the chance to meet such an interesting young fellow either, heh.” The woman chuckled and then walked away after teasing Lu Yin. She deliberately swayed her hips in a provocative manner as she left.
Lu Yin poured himself a drink and casually looked up, raising his glass towards where Chou Bao was silently standing.
The old man nodded to Lu Yin and raised his own glass.
The exchange caught the woman’s attention, and she turned back to stare at Lu Yin. Something was off about the young man. How could she not understand Chou Bao’s personality? Even when peers visited, the Void Suprema would not be this polite. Who could the young man be?
“Drinks are on me today!” Lu Yin shouted, startling the woman. She could not resist rolling her eyes again as cheers erupted across the room.
It had been years since so much laughter had been heard in the New Inn. It was located in the middle of a dangerous battlefield, but at the moment, it resembled a regular inn.
The woman returned that same day to sit at Lu Yin’s table and talk with him. She was growing increasingly curious about his identity.
When another woman entered the inn, Lu Yin looked up. His eyes flickered, as his target had finally arrived.
The woman with the heavy makeup also looked up, and her brow furrowed as she muttered, “Why is she here again? How annoying.”
Lu Yin asked, “You don’t want her here?”
“How observant,” the woman commented with a sarcastic roll of her eyes.
Lu Yin laughed as he raised his arm. “Over here!”
The woman with heavy makeup twitched. “What are you doing?”
Lu Yin replied, “Big Sister, if you don’t want her here, I’ll help you teach her a lesson.”
The woman with the heavy makeup grew startled. “Don’t mess around! You can’t afford to offend that woman!”
As Progenitor Smoke entered the door, she saw Lu Yin and casually approached him.
The woman with heavy makeup started to panic, and she glared at Lu Yin before standing up and approaching Progenitor Smoke. “Senior, please forgive him. The young man didn’t mean anything.”
Progenitor Smoke’s expression remained serene. “Brew me a pot of tea.”
She then breezed past the other woman and took a seat at Lu Yin’s table. “Why are you here?”
It was then that the woman with the heavy makeup finally realized that the young man already knew the other woman. How infuriating! She ground her teeth in frustration, irritated that she had been worried about the young man for even a moment.
