Chapter 824: The One Emerging from the Shadows
Besides Yan Qiushui’s memory, Lin Yi also acquired Luo Zhen’s memory.This guy’s strength is not on the same level as Yan Qiushui, the Dark Rising Organization on Aiven Star is much better developed than on Bisite Planet, and the research progress they have mastered is naturally much better than Bisite’s.
With this data support, Lin Yi is confident that within a month’s time, he can research the things he wants to obtain.
The headquarters of Dark Rising Association, the experimentation center.
Three gigantic emerald-like Gems, as large as small mountains, are arranged in a triangular formation within a huge array.
At the base of the array, the blue inscriptions shimmer, constantly absorbing Source Power.
The Great Saint and Wo Zhiqi’s two Martial Souls appear in miniature form, floating beside Lin Yi, watching the operating array.
"Oh!"
The Great Saint suddenly sighed.
This sigh immediately aroused Wo Zhiqi’s interest.
The monkey in shiny black-silver armor leaned over to the Great Saint with a provoking smile, patting his shoulder.
"What’s wrong, little monkey, regretting that you didn’t become a Divine Being as they suggested?"
"Indeed, if you had followed their path, you would’ve progressed further, even reaching my level in life would not be impossible, but alas, your heart is too kind."
Don’t say, Wo Zhiqi’s guess was actually correct.
Sun Wukong indeed regrets his decision.
Sticking to the righteous path was not wrong, but choosing to fight knowing you are unmatched was somewhat foolish.
With Sun Wukong’s talent and body, he could have endured for a while; among All Celestial Divine Beings, how many could outlast Sun Wukong?
"Great Saint, that’s enough, after all, I’m still here, let me do what you couldn’t do."
To this, the Great Saint had nothing to say.
It holds little meaning to dwell on past grievances.
The current Source Power purification experiment is progressing well, only a few critical steps remain unresolved.
Lin Yi’s thoughts are clear, relying on the Great Saint and Wo Zhiqi’s understanding of Source Power, slowly overcoming these issues.
"I believe the extracted Source Power cannot be refined, perhaps because the refined Source Power still contains the will of the original owner. I remember you having some Artifact Refining skills, and those special flames, why not try injecting fire’s power into it, processing it through Alchemy or Artifact Refining?"
"Didn’t that old man also process it this way during refining?"
On Wo Zhiqi’s mention, Lin Yi suddenly realized it indeed seemed to be the case.
Just as he planned to start working, a figure with a shapely form in a black robe entered Lin Yi’s sight.
When did this happen!
Not only Lin Yi, even the souls of the Great Saint and Wo Zhiqi showed a look of astonishment.
Neither of the two even noticed when the person appeared in front of them.
Before Lin Yi could react, the black-robed figure removed her mask, revealing a head of bright purple wavy hair cascading down, and her delicate fair features naturally enchanting, with just a glance, Lin Yi felt slightly entranced.
Even without clearly sensing the opponent’s strength, Lin Yi could guess that the woman before him was unusual.
"Lord Wo Zhiqi, Great Saint, I never thought I would meet you here, what a blessing for me," she said.
With that, the woman in black respectfully cupped her hands.
From her words, it wasn’t hard to discern her identity.
She must be a member of the current Divine Beings within All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.
Judging by the Divine Power emanating from her body, her strength is not weak.
Given Wo Zhiqi and the Great Saint’s current situation, dealing with her would be troublesome.
"Ha ha, where did this young one come from, recognizing us, not bad. Pity, I have no impression of you."
"Where did this girl come from, have we met before?"
Wo Zhiqi and the Great Saint both assumed battle stances:
The Golden Cudgel appeared in the hand of the Great Saint without anyone knowing, and a water dragon coiled and leaped in Wo Zhiqi’s claw, with clear murderous intent.
In this tense atmosphere, Lin Yi extended his hand, motioning Wo Zhiqi and the Great Saint to stand down.
"Both of you, stay calm, if she intended to attack us, I’d probably be dead by now."
"Her appearance now might bring us some benefits."
Sure enough, the fact that this kid received favor from both Wo Zhiqi and the Great Saint wasn’t by chance; his mind indeed turns swiftly.
The woman did not deny Lin Yi’s explanation, and began introducing herself on her own.
"Both of you, Brother Lin Yi, hello, my name is Ziyue, I’m a minor deity from the Desire Realm Celestial Human Dao plane, my position in All Heavens’ Divine Beings is insignificant, but what’s important is your realization of the Dark Rising Organization."
"The purpose of our organization is something you should understand by now. Officially, I am a member of All Heavens’ Divine Beings, but in reality, I’m their enemy."
"Both of you are supreme beings with enmity towards All Heavens’ Divine Beings. Isn’t the saying true, ’the enemy of my enemy is my friend’? Though this humble deity dares not attempt to form relations, I can offer my help."
Ziyue simply introduced the Dark Rising Association.
Dark Rising not only exists in the lower planes but even has traces in higher planes.
Ever since the Great Saint caused a stir, the rules about All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds Divine Beings’ survival were exposed.
No matter how the big shots among Divine Beings tried to block these news, they could not do so entirely.
Thus, the name Dark Rising was born naturally.
After a thousand years of development, Dark Rising’s power has reached an unprecedented height.
Though compared with the power of All Heavens Divine Beings, it remains a world apart, but compared to individual power, there is still a considerable gap.
"Brother Lin Yi, you are a mere mortal, but reaching this point through your own skills shows your remarkable strength. Achieving such feats at your age, it’s hard to guess the realm you might reach in the future."
"Thus, we have been eyeing you for a long time. Several times, members of Dark Rising intended to help you out of predicaments, but each time you managed to solve crises with your own power, thwarting our attempts to recruit you."
"Finally, this time there’s an opportunity."
"We have mastered the method of refining Source Power into a form that can directly enhance the user’s strength, it’s not as good as those achieved by the big shots among Divine Beings, but it’s not too shabby either."
"How about it, become one of us."
With that, Ziyue retrieved a ring embedded with a purple Crystal Stone from her East African Rift Valley, and handed it to Lin Yi.
"Eating is done one bite at a time, plans are made one step at a time, surviving in this tumultuous and perilous All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds is no easy task."
"I can join your Dark Rising, but the two big shots might be a different story, their thoughts are beyond my influence."
As he spoke, Lin Yi slightly activated his Gravity Manipulation Skills, and snatched the ring from Ziyue’s hand into his own.
