Chapter 261: Powerful Innate Gif (1/2)

Gift Copy was not often utilized since he did not dare to roll the die where there were people nearby. The ten seconds he had to find someone were too short, but the roll did have a remarkable effect when used properly.

Possession was often surprising and could allow him to improve his power by leaps and bounds, and it even had the possibility of providing unexpected results.

And yet, others could use their innate gifts in the trial zones, but he could not use his die. Was this only in the trial zones, or did it also hold true in other, similar areas? This was important to find out.

“Hey monkey, I’ve got a question for you.”

The Ghost Monkey was pleased. “So you’re finally realizing this monkey’s importance! Go ahead and ask, as long as you don’t seal off my senses for no reason.”

“You’ve mentioned that the trial zones are the ruins of the Rune Technology legacy, so how can people use their innate gifts in there?”

“An innate gift is a part of the body, so they can naturally use it in there. Why? Do you want to analyze it? It’s not just you, but even your Human Domain can’t analyze it.”

“Then are there any innate gifts that can’t be used there?”

The Ghost Monkey paused. “That’s unheard of. The Runemasters’ powers were absolute, and they could duplicate anyone, any technique, and any innate gift bloodline without exception. There was never a recorded case where they were unable to duplicate something.”

“What if there is?” Lu Yin continued his line of questioning.

“Then that means that that person’s innate gift is simply too powerful and that it has exceeded their Rune Technology’s scope and abilities.”

Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed, as he did not doubt this explanation; he was fully aware of how powerful his die was.

“Wait, does the innate gift that’s unusable in the trial zones belong to you?” the Ghost Monkey asked probingly.

“Not me, but someone else.”

“Who?” The Ghost Monkey was shocked. “That’s impossible. There’s nothing that the Runemasters couldn’t duplicate. They could even clone the universe’s stars.”

“How do you know so much about all this?”

“I’ve mentioned this before—I like to investigate history, and I’ve studied records of these events.”

“Is that so...” Lu Yin found this hard to believe. The Ghost Monkey knew too much for his status, but he avoided Lu Yin’s questions about how he had gained his knowledge every time Lu Yin asked. Lu Yin did not trust the Ghost Monkey, although the Ghost Monkey did not ask anymore questions about the strange innate gift either.

Not much later, a set of coordinates was sent to Lu Yin’s gadget. It was from the Sandmaster, with the following message. “Head to this location and participate in the Outerverse trial.”

Lu Yin had a plan, though it possibly required using Wu Xia’s identity.

Lu Yin quickly arrived in the treasury and started looking for Old Cai.

“Old Cai, I’m headed to the Outerverse trial. Can I borrow a personal spacecraft?” Lu Yin was embarrassed to make the request, as his personal spacecraft had vanished at the pirate port, and he did not know where it had gone.

Old Cai wasn’t happy with the request either. “You can’t even protect your items, so be careful to not lose your life as well. Go on, but remember that you’re just borrowing it and that you must return it later.”

Lu Yin did not mind, as an average personal spacecraft only cost a few tens of thousands of star energy crystals, which was an amount that he could afford.

When the spacecraft entered outer space, Lu Yin checked to see about how long it would take to arrive. He had visited the Darkmist Weave once before, but the universe was an unpredictable space, and routes often had to be recalculated. This time, it would take him nineteen days to travel from Astral-10 to the location of the coordinates, which wasn’t too long.

He thought for a moment and then took out the Giant Emperor’s third eye, grasping it in his palm. He stared at the passing outer space as battle force shrouded his body and he started silently reciting the Stonewall Scriptures.

Time slowly passed in this manner, with eighteen days flying by as the personal spacecraft sailed across six regions.

Lu Yin initially wanted to find somewhere to rest and roll his die, but in the end, he decided against it. He would use it in the Shenwu Continent so as to prevent any possible accidents from occurring.

Another day passed, and Lu Yin finally reached an isolated area of space that matched the coordinates that he had been given. A strange ripple swept through on occasion, as this area of space had been severed from the universe.

Lu Yin passed through after his identity was successfully authenticated, and he entered without any trouble. Upon entering the isolated space, he saw a giant space station that was made entirely out of metal, such that it looked like a steel fortress floating in the heavens. It was many times bigger than a super-large spacecraft.

Many terrifying auras filled the region, every last one belonging to a space-exploring powerhouse. There were also many more hidden auras, and they also caused Lu Yin to feel numb, as those auras belonged to the powerhouses beyond his imagination.

This was the front line of the universe’s invasion into the Shenwu Continent, and it was this space station that prevented the Shenwu Continent from connecting to the rest of the universe.
