Chapter 402: The Savior
The shadow in the lake only existed for a moment, and soon disappeared, and the lake was filled with a faint light again.
As the black shadow disappeared, the surging Nine Nether Qi also subsided.
Seeing that Jiuyou's aura had subsided, Yu Cheng and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
Yu Xuanyi said with some lingering fear: "What was that just now? Such a powerful aura, just a shadow, made me feel a huge danger."
You know, Yu Xuanyi is a powerful Immortal King level warrior. Just a shadow that appeared from nowhere made him feel like he might die at any time.
It is conceivable how powerful the other party is.
This also made Yu Xuanyi speechless. He was obviously already an Immortal King and should be the top existence in the universe.
As a result, after entering the abyss ruins, he first encountered the terrifying Nine Nether monster, and now he encountered such a terrifying black shadow, which made people feel that he, the Immortal King, was a fake.
Yu Cheng and Yu Yunqing beside them also had complicated expressions.
Yu Cheng exhaled: "Fortunately, Yi Er is here, otherwise the previous Nine Nether Qi riot would have been too dangerous."
Yu Yunqing nodded, looked deeply at the lake, and asked, "What on earth is that?"
Lu Yi shook his head: "I don't know, but..."
Lu Yi looked at the area where his fate had been somewhat inconsistent before and fell into deep thought.
"But?" Yu Cheng and others looked at the silent Lu Yi, somewhat confused.
Lu Yi smiled slightly and did not answer. The next moment, he appeared not far from the lake.
There was a mysterious light in his eyes, and the power of the origin of destiny was running at full power.
There was a hazy light flashing on his hand, and he slowly reached towards a corner of the lake.
Yu Cheng and the other two were still in their original positions. When they saw Lu Yi's actions, they all widened their eyes in surprise.
They didn't understand what Lu Yi was doing.
But the next moment, they felt a dazzling light.
The lake composed entirely of original power suddenly shook violently again. This time was different from the last time when the black shadow appeared. The dim light suddenly became dazzling, like a star, releasing dazzling light.
At this moment, the faint light on the lake gradually condensed, outlining a figure.
It was a handsome man with a single horn.
When they saw this man, Yu Cheng and the other two were all shocked.
"The Immortal King of Destiny!"
They were not unfamiliar with the phantom in front of them!
In the previous temple of the Immortal King of Destiny, the statues and strokes they saw all had the man before them.
It is the Immortal King of Destiny.
Although Lu Yi had expected something from the inconsistency of fate, he was still a little surprised after actually seeing the projection of the Immortal King of Destiny.
Lu Yi looked at the illusory projection condensed by the dim light warily without saying a word.
Soon, the projection was completed, and the expression of the Immortal King of Destiny changed from dull to lively.
His eyes swept across and finally stopped at Lu Yi. Finally, he laughed: "Sure enough, he appeared. The savior."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yi, Yu Cheng and the other two were all stunned.
Lu Yi raised his eyebrows and said, "The savior? Me?"
The Immortal King of Destiny nodded and chuckled, "That's right, Jiuyou is too strong. We alone can't resist them. Only you can do it."
Lu Yi narrowed his eyes, his gaze flickering.
He soon calmed down.
He knew his own situation clearly. With his foundation, as long as his cultivation reached the Immortal King realm, he should have a good chance of dealing with the Immortal Emperor realm, even the Nine Nether Demon.
If he reaches the realm of Immortal Emperor, then dealing with the Nine Netherworld will not be a big problem.
In a sense, just as the shadow of the Immortal King of Destiny said, he can indeed be considered a savior.
Lu Yi's thoughts were in a tizzy. He looked at the Immortal King of Destiny and asked, "How do you know I can do this?"
The Immortal King of Fate smiled and said, "When I spent my essence to deduce the fate of the universe, I saw a phantom in my dojo. Although even I cannot tell who it is from the long river of fate, now that I see you, I am sure."
Hearing this, Lu Yi nodded slightly, thought for a moment, and asked, "Is this what you deduced before entering the Nine Netherworld? There should be many other people who left behind the source of power besides you, right?"
When the Immortal King of Destiny heard Lu Yi's words, he couldn't help but chuckle.
His expression became a little complicated, and he said, "No, this was not deduced before I entered the Nine Netherworld, but after I entered the Nine Netherworld. The source of power left here, in addition to me, is also left by all the companions who are still alive and have not betrayed. It is because of us that we can pass through the barrier between the Nine Netherworld and the universe, leave traces of fate here, and communicate with you... Unfortunately, my dojo was destroyed because of this."
"Betrayal?" Lu Yi listened quietly to the explanation of the Fairy King of Destiny, and then quickly noticed the next word the Fairy King of Destiny said.
Upon hearing this, the Immortal King of Destiny had a complicated expression. He nodded slightly and chuckled, "Yes, an Immortal Emperor has joined the Nine Netherworld."
This statement caused the entire scene to fall into silence.
Just as Lu Yi was about to continue asking, the Immortal King of Destiny spoke again, "I don't have much time, so I can't see your fate clearly, but Jiuyou's situation is very bad now. The demon gods from those years have awakened one after another, and we don't know how long we can hold on. Become stronger as soon as possible. Maybe next year, maybe ten years later, or maybe a hundred years later. I'm not sure when Jiuyou will enter the universe again."
As the Immortal King of Destiny was speaking, the lake began to surge with faint light again. The shadow of the Immortal King of Destiny shattered, and a dark shadow emerged from the lake again, twisting and dancing. The sound of violent roars was endless, and the energy of the Nine Netherworld surged again.
Lu Yi was very close to the lake at this moment and could feel the terrifying aura coming from the black shadow. Even at his current state, he was still unable to resist it.
His face changed, his figure flashed, and he disappeared from the spot. He came to the side of Yu Cheng and the others, and once again condensed the energy of the Great Dao to form a protective shield.
This time, the Nine Nether Qi was more violent than last time, and it almost broke Lu Yi's Dao shield. Fortunately, the black shadow disappeared in the end and everything returned to calm.
Lu Yi and Yu Cheng looked at each other with extremely complicated expressions.
Yu Xuanyi hurriedly said: "Yi Er, see if you can communicate with the Immortal King of Destiny again. At least tell us something about the Nine Netherworld so that we can have a better idea!"
It was gone after just a few words. It was difficult for them to deal with it, right? Lu Yi took a look and found that the area where the fate was not coordinated had disappeared. I am afraid that it can no longer be contacted.
However, he also wanted to try again.
Lu Yi activated the origin of destiny once again, trying to communicate with the Immortal King of Destiny through the lake condensed by the origin.
However, the final result is obviously ineffective.
He shook his head: "No, the arrangement left behind disappeared after being used once, and we can't continue to communicate."
These words made Yu Cheng and the others beside him silent, and they were very disappointed.
Lu Yi glanced at the calm lake, then looked at the dense Nine Netherworld Qi around him, and said, "Let's go, let's leave here first, there's nothing left here."
Yu Cheng and the others came to their senses and nodded.
They retreated to the camp of the Jiuyou monks before and stopped.
After the four of them were silent for a while, Yu Xuanyi said, "It seems that the Immortal King and Immortal Emperor who entered the Nine Netherworld back then are really not dead, they are still in the Nine Netherworld, and they are still alive!"
Yu Cheng nodded: "This is good news, they are still resisting the Nine Nether Demons."
Yu Yunqing looked at Yu Cheng and Yu Xuanyi calmly and said, "But the Immortal King of Destiny said before that they can't hold on for much longer. Moreover, there is an Immortal Emperor who has joined Jiuyou! Why is that?"
This was the longest speech Yu Yunqing had ever said. She had always been calm and indifferent for such a long time, so it was obvious that the words of the Immortal King of Destiny had brought a great shock to her.
Lu Yi also couldn't understand why an Immortal Emperor would join Jiuyou. Was it because he was afraid of death? Or was it some other reason? Lu Yi felt that it was not because he was afraid of death.
If they were really afraid of death, those Immortal Emperors would not have entered the Nine Netherworld. Once they entered there, even the Immortal Emperors would have a chance of death.
Obviously, after entering Jiuyou, they discovered something or understood something and finally chose to join Jiuyou.
However... the fact that the Immortal King of Destiny communicated with them might not necessarily be out of good intentions.
These words were only spoken by the Immortal King of Destiny. Who knows if the Immortal King of Destiny joined Jiuyou himself? However, Lu Yi only thought about it. The possibility of the Immortal King of Destiny joining Jiuyou was not great.
After all, there was too much original power left in that lake. It was obviously necessary for a large number of Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors to work together to transmit the power of the Immortal King of Destiny through the barrier into the universe.
If the Immortal King of Destiny joins Jiuyou, then so many Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors will probably join in.
If this is true, there are not many Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors still resisting the Nine Nether Evil Demon, and it should not be too difficult for the Nine Nether Evil Demon to enter the universe.
There is another reason, that is, Lu Yi and others have no idea about Jiuyou's situation.
If the Immortal King of Destiny really joined Jiuyou, wouldn’t it be better for him to say nothing, not communicate with Lu Yi beforehand, and quietly wait for the Nine Netherworld’s evil demons to rush out of the Jiuyou world, and then launch an attack with lightning speed?
Why do we need to give such a reminder? Lu Yi pondered in his heart and said, "Maybe there is something attracting those Immortal Emperors?"
"What could attract the Immortal Emperors and make them join Jiuyou and betray their own universe? They even ignore their own people?" Yu Cheng couldn't understand.
Lu Yi shook his head: "I don't know. Maybe I can only understand the details when I have a chance to meet the Immortal King of Destiny."
After Lu Yi said this, everyone fell silent again.
Yu Cheng then sighed: "Alas, I didn't expect that this abyss ruins was created by the Immortal King of Destiny and his men in order to establish a connection with the universe. No wonder the space here is so unstable."
Lu Yi nodded slightly.
He had felt before that the space here was too unstable, as if it had been shattered by a terrifying force and was recovering bit by bit.
Now he understood.
The Immortal King of Destiny, together with a large number of Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors, took action at the same time and broke the barrier between the Nine Netherworld and the universe. However, they did not establish a Nine Netherworld channel to devour the space line, so naturally they could only shatter the space to achieve this.
The consequence of this is that the space in the entire area is completely shattered.
It seems that the Nine Netherworld Qi must have infiltrated from the Nine Netherworld world for this reason.
What made Lu Yi somewhat thankful was that the Nine Nether Passage had not been formed, and those Nine Nether evil demons could not enter the universe through the unstable space here.
However, those Nine Netherworld cultivators should also be able to communicate with the strong ones in the Nine Netherworld through the instability here.
Lu Yi had some guesses about the reasons why those Nine Netherworld cultivators gathered before. At the same time, he also understood that the Nine Netherworld monsters that appeared before were probably formed by the Immortal Emperor-level strongmen in the Nine Netherworld who interfered with the instability of space and transferred their own power over.
His thoughts raced, and then he smiled and said, "Anyway, this time entering the Abyss Ruins, I gained a lot."
Yu Cheng and the others nearby brightened their eyes and nodded.
Yu Xuanyi grinned and said, "Hahaha, that's true. At least, there are so many Nine Nether cultivators hiding here. If we don't know about it, who knows what kind of trouble they will cause in the future? It is undoubtedly a good thing to catch them all this time."
"Moreover, we also know that there are Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors in the Nine Netherworld, which is also something worth being happy about." Yu Cheng said with a smile.
As for the gradually awakening demon god in Jiuyou, they already knew about it before. Although the impression of the Immortal King of Destiny has been deepened now, it only makes them more serious and does not affect the essence of the matter.
Lu Yi smiled and said, "In that case, let's explore the surroundings a bit more and then go back."
After receiving the warning from the Immortal King of Destiny, Lu Yi suddenly felt even more pressure from Jiuyou. He wished he could go back to seclusion immediately and break through to the Immortal King realm as soon as possible so that he would have enough strength to deal with the Nine Nether Demon.
Yu Cheng and the other two also nodded without objection.
The four of them searched the surroundings carefully but did not find any Nine Nether cultivators, nor did they find anything else unusual.
After that, the four of them left the depths of the abyss ruins and flew outside.
Along the way, with Lu Yi using the origin of space and the origin of destiny, the space vortex and doom in the abyss ruins had no effect on them.
Naturally, they left the abyss ruins easily and returned to the outside universe.
In the base outside the Abyss Ruins, whether it is the Tianluo Star Domain or the Jingling Star Domain, there are strong people who have been paying attention to the internal situation.
Seeing Lu Yi and his group coming out, Yu Xin and others quickly flew out of the base to greet them.
Yuying glanced at the four people and asked in surprise, "You came out so soon? How was it? Did you gain anything?"
Others were also very surprised.
After all, Lu Yi and others had not been in the abyss ruins for long.
They instinctively thought that Lu Yi and his group did not go deep into the abyss ruins.
Even the Immortal King cannot go deep into the Abyss Ruins? Yu Xuanyi grinned and said, "The harvest is huge. We have entered the deepest part of the Abyss Ruins and learned some secrets."
Hearing this, everyone was stunned and some widened their eyes in surprise.
"You have entered the deepest part and come back?" Yu Yuanyou asked in surprise.
"Well, let's talk about it when we get back." Yu Cheng nodded slightly and spoke.
"good!"
