Chapter 2607: It Worked

Lu Yin watched the die as it slowed to a stop. Possession. Lu Yin sighed. If he wasn’t in the Origin Universe, this roll was useless.

Suddenly, voidforce energy started leaking from the bone pike and was absorbed by the die. The next thing Lu Yin knew, he appeared in the strange dark space, surrounded by orbs of light.

He was taken aback. It worked? Possession actually worked? He had tried it in the Sixverse Academy before. But this time, the die had absorbed voidforce energy from the bone pike. That actually made sense; he needed to use the energy of whatever universe he was currently in.

In the Origin Universe, the die's Possession used star energy from star essence. Now, since Lu Yin was in the Voidforce Universe, the ability naturally needed to be fueled by voidforce energy.

How had he not thought of such a simple principle before?

He had already obtained some flourishing crystals, which contained the three monarchs energy used in the Three Monarchs Universe. If he rolled Possession on his die while in the Three Monarchs Universe, it should work there as well.

There was no time for him to think too deeply about the matter. Lu Yin chose a random sphere of light and merged with it. The scenery changed around him, and he soon found himself on a bustling street. He was on some continent somewhere in the Voidforce Universe. Someone behind Lu Yin nudged him. "Third Brother, let's go."

Lu Yin muttered in response as memories started to flood his mind. He quickly realized that he had Possessed a Void Ascendia who was currently on his way to an academy.

Only a little voidforce energy had leaked out of the bone pike, so after only taking two steps, the Possession ended, and Lu Yin’s consciousness passed back through the dark space to return to his own body.

His eyes snapped open, his eyes overflowing with delight. It worked! Possession worked!

The fact that the die's Possession had failed in the Sixverse Academy had been incredibly frustrating to Lu Yin. There was no denying the number of times the die had helped or saved him over the years, and he had found himself at a loss when his innate gift had suddenly stopped working in the greater megaverse.

Having found the means to once again use and take advantage of Possession, Lu Yin felt much more confident about his chances of succeeding with several different matters, such as finding Aeternus's hidden spies.

Lu Yin grabbed the bone pike and pulled at the voidforce energy within it. As a surge of voidforce energy appeared around him, he raised his hand and continued to roll the die. This time, he planned to Possess someone who had the same cultivation in voidforce energy as him. Such a person would be the equivalent of a sixth-tribulation Envoy, and only someone with at least that much strength would be worth Possessing, provided that Lu Yin could even roll another Possession.

After tapping the die, he watched as it slowly came to a stop, revealing three pips: Enhance.

Lu Yin casually tossed the bone pike onto the upper light screen and then threw out tens of thousands of star essence. Upon seeing that the bone pike did not shift even the slightest bit, he felt a pang of disappointment. It could not be Enhanced. Wu Tian had already extracted the full potential of the base materials when he crafted the bone pike.

Lu Yin next took out a white energy converter. If he could Enhance it into a black energy converter, he would be able to mass-produce Progenitor-level experts.

However, reality proved that his hopes were nothing more than dreams, as the white energy converter also refused to be upgraded. NewW novels updates at novelhall.com

Shaking his head, Lu Yin pulled out a Lotus Artifact, only to find that they were also unable to be Enhanced.

Having failed three items in a row, Lu Yin felt rather uneasy. He finally decided to pull out one of the charred Books of Destiny and set it on the upper screen. If nothing else, the book could hopefully be repaired.

Watching the Book of Destiny creep downwards, Lu Yin heaved a sigh of relief. It was indeed possible to repair the books.

It appeared that Lu Yin’s die was even more advanced than the Books of Destiny. However, he could estimate that fully repairing the Books of Destiny would cost him around six trillion star essence, which was certainly more than what he could afford at the moment. His total funds only numbered a bit more than five trillion star essence, and he could not afford to spend everything at once.

With nothing else to Enhance, Lu Yin put the Book of Destiny away again.

Lu Yin frowned. After seeing Yun Wu's memories, it would not be difficult for him to expose the woman, but the problem was how she would be dealt with after she was exposed. How should such a person pay for their actions?

Ending his seclusion, Lu Yin looked upwards. Was the temperature dropping even further?

He wondered how his two adopted siblings were doing in their own seclusion.

His communication crystal vibrated. It was a call from Yun Yun.

When the woman visited him, she had exchanged contact details with Xuan Qi.

"Big Brother Xuan Qi, the first batch of the materials that you requested is ready. We can complete the trade whenever you wish," Yun Yun said with a smile.

"That's great. I'll contact the Transcendent Universe right away. Thank you, Yun Yun," replied Lu Yin.

Yun Yun's face flushed slightly. "Big Brother Xuan Qi, there’s no need for you to be so polite with me. I’ll bring the resources over to the Void Yang clan right away."

"No, I'll head over to meet you," Lu Yin replied.

Yun Yun's eyes lit up. "You want to visit my Cloudview clan? That’s great, Big Brother Xuan Qi!"

Lu Yin smiled, and after exchanging a few more pleasantries, he ended the call. He stared in the Cloudview clan’s direction. He really should go visit the clan. He could not allow spies and other traitors to continue sabotaging humanity, no matter if they were doing so actively or passively.

Lu Yin told the two clans hosting him about his departure, and then he quickly returned to the Aeternus Kingdom and made his way to Gods' Origin. He asked the ambassador from the Transcendent Universe there to contact Ke Jian. After all, Lu Yin had negotiated a trade between the Transcendent Universe and the Cloudview clan, so it only made sense for Ke Jian to be the one to handle the matter.

Days slipped by before Ke Jian finally arrived. His eyes betrayed his great excitement. "Xuan Qi, are they really ready to finish the trade?"

Lu Yin nodded. "The Cloudview clan has been quite considerate, as well as remarkably swift about handling this. We should get going."

Ke Jian gave a nod of approval and then said, "If not for you, we would have found it quite difficult to secure resources from the Voidforce Universe. While the members of the Sixverse Association might appear supportive of each other, you should know that interuniversal trade is very difficult to conduct. In the past, we were forced to spend years of effort and pay steep prices to acquire similar amounts of materials, which made the results barely worth the effort. However, you, Xuan Qi, have managed to close a huge deal in a matter of mere months! Madam He Ran has asked me to convey her gratitude to you."

Lu Yin responded solemnly, "You are being too kind. Even though I, Xuan Qi, have joined the Voidforce Universe, the Transcendent Universe remains my home. Zi Jing will never leave the Transcendent Universe, so I hope for the best for both universes. Open trade and cooperation will benefit everyone."

Ke Jian's eyes sparkled. "Well said! I will convey your sentiments to Madam He Ran. I'm sure that she will be more than happy to hear your feelings. The Transcendent Universe will always remain your pillar of support."

Soon, Lu Yin and Ke Jian arrived in the Voidforce Universe, and they immediately headed towards the Cloudview clan.

The Cloudview clan was a prestigious clan that had previously raised a Void Suprema powerhouse. At the clan’s peak, they had wielded influence over a full third of the Voidforce Universe, which was something beyond any of the living Void Supremas. This was not because the contemporary powerhouses were incapable, but rather because none of them had a powerful family’s influence behind them.

When it came to personal influence, Xu Wuwei was not someone who could sway just the Voidforce Universe; he could influence the decisions of the Sixverse Association itself. However, he merely represented himself and had no clan behind him.

Despite years of decline, the Cloudview clan had managed to retain a reasonable level of prestige, thanks to the lingering legacy of their ancestors, as well as Xu Xiangyin’s presence.

When it came to trading with the Voidforce Universe, it was only natural that the Transcendent Universe had a deep understanding of the Cloudview clan.

When Lu Yin and Ke Jian arrived at the Cloudview clan, Yun Yun and several other members of the clan stepped out to greet their guests.

"Xuan Qi, welcome to my Cloudview clan." Yun Yun greeted the two men with a happy laugh. It was clear that she was delighted to see them.

Ke Jian was taken aback. Given his long life and many experiences, he was instantly able to sense that the Cloudview clan’s young mistress felt an unusual level of affection for Xuan Qi.
