Soon, more than ten days passed, and the relic floating above Tuo Lin's head suddenly rotated. The distorted void spread horizontally and countless images appeared, forming ripples that spread out.
Mu Xie's eyes suddenly widened as he stared at the relic. It sometimes condensed and sometimes disappeared as if it was being dragged by time.
The distorted images flickered around, and suddenly, the same person appeared in all the images. It was an old man who opened his eyes and looked at Mu Xie, "Master Lu, please come over. I'm She Sheng."
With a whoosh, the space returned to normal, and Lu Yin stepped in, "Senior Brother?"
At this time, Tuo Lin woke up and looked around blankly.
He saw Mu Xie staring at him, "Who are you?"
Lu Yin came to Mu Xie's side.
Tuo Lin was excited and quickly got off the bed to kowtow, "Disciple Tuo Lin greets Master."
Lu Yin casually threw Tuo Lin back, "Rest well. I'll see you when you recover."
Tuo Lin respectfully replied, "Yes, disciple will listen to Master."
Lu Yin and Mu Xie went out.
Mu Xie's face was solemn, "I just saw a person, one of the Nine Saints of Reincarnation Space-Time, She Sheng."
Lu Yin was surprised, "She Sheng?"
"This young man is related to She Sheng and has his bloodline. He invited you to Reincarnation Space-Time for a chat," Mu Xie said.
Lu Yin nodded, he did not expect Tuo Lin to be related to She Sheng.
Among the three Saints, Empyrean Saint Battle was recognized as the strongest and could fight alone. She Sheng was the most mysterious. No one had ever seen him fight, but no one dared to ignore him because he was the oldest. Not even Empyrean Saint Battle was older than him, and he was the only one who could drink tea with a Grand Empyrean at any time.
She Sheng was the most unique person in Reincarnation Space-Time.
That fearless spirit was something that Lu Yin cared about even now.
He had faced She Sheng in Reincarnation Space-Time and had a deep impression of this old man.
"In that case, I should go and meet him," Lu Yin said.
Mu Xie frowned, "This She Sheng gives me a very unusual feeling. Be careful and ask Senior Brother Mu Xie to accompany you."
Lu Yin nodded, "If necessary, I will."
…
In Reincarnation Space-Time, Lu Yin came again, but this time it was very secretive. No one except She Sheng knew.
She Sheng's location was one of the most secretive places in the Reincarnation Space-Time. Even the Three Sovereigns and Nine Sages did not know about it, but an outsider like Lu Yin had actually come.
She Sheng's location was very ordinary and there was nothing special about it. He was like an old man with one foot in the grave, planting flowers and raising grass. He lived alone in a thatched cottage, giving others the feeling that he was waiting for death.
Even so, Lu Yin had a feeling that this old man was far from dying. Or rather, it seemed like it would be very difficult for this old man to die.
He clearly gave people the feeling that he could die at any time, but at the same time, there was a contradictory feeling that he couldn't die.
Lu Yin couldn't help but open his Heavenly Eye and stare at the cottage.
She Sheng walked out of the cottage and looked at Lu Yin with a gentle smile, "Master Lu, I'm just an old man, and I don't have any offensive abilities. There's no need to use Senior Wu Tian's Celestial Eye."
Lu Yin landed a hundred meters away from She Sheng, "Is Tuo Lin your descendant?"
She Sheng said, "Let's talk inside."
"There's no need for that. Let's just do it here," Lu Yin said.
She Sheng nodded. There was no table, just a stone, and they sat on the ground with boiling tea in the middle.
She Sheng didn't pay much attention to pouring tea for Lu Yin, and Lu Yin didn't pay much attention to it either.
"Someone once taught me the way of tea, but I'm not even 1% of that person. Otherwise, I would be able to brew a cup of tea that Master Lu will never forget." She Sheng sighed, picked up the teacup, and politely handed it to Lu Yin.
Lu Yin took it, "Do you like tea?
I also have people who can brew tea that you will never forget. "
She Sheng laughed, "Master Lu, this isn't the first time we've met. You've seen me during the Reincarnation Tribulation."
Lu Yin took a sip of tea and asked casually, "Is Tuo Lin your descendant?"
"Yes."
"Why did you want to see me?"
"Please release Tuo Lin, Master Lu."
Lu Yin looked at She Sheng, "Do you think I want to borrow him to do something to your Reincarnation Spacetime?"
She Sheng shook his head, "Of course not. Master Lu doesn't understand Tuo Lin. Not to mention Tuo Lin, even I can't satisfy Master Lu's resentment towards the Grand Empyrean."
Lu Yin looked up, "I've already accepted him as a disciple, so I'll treat him as a disciple. It has nothing to do with the Reincarnation Spacetime. I can't harm a child who doesn't even have a cultivation base."
She Sheng sighed, "Although the Lu family is overbearing, they have a bottom line. I naturally know this, but Tuo Lin really can't cultivate. It's not that I'm afraid Master Lu will harm him, but if even Master Lu can't make him cultivate, then this child's heart will die."
Lu Yin was puzzled, "Why can't he cultivate?"
"Some things will affect the source of the bloodline. My bloodline sacrificed itself, so all of my descendants have no bloodline to cultivate." She Sheng sighed.
Lu Yin looked at She Sheng, "So, I'm asking why he can't cultivate."
She Sheng and Lu Yin looked at each other, "Master Lu, have you heard of Ku Ah?"
Lu Yin's eyes flashed, "The legendary realm above the Primordial Realm?"
She Sheng calmly asked, "Did Ancestor Lu Yuan tell you?"
Lu Yin was shocked, "Is there really a realm above the Primordial Realm?"
He had only guessed. Big Sis had said that the realm above the Progenitor Realm was called the Primordial Realm. This word reminded him of the nine words in the Mirage Domain. "Ascending to the Primordial Realm, crossing Ku Ah, obtaining eternal life."
Although these nine words didn't explicitly say that it was a realm, it should be similar. So it was true.
He hadn't asked Ancestor Lu Tianyi about it. If they wanted to tell him, they would have done so long ago. They didn't want to affect his path.
She Sheng took a sip of tea, "Ku Ah represents a person's transformation. Ordinary cultivators think that reaching the Progenitor Realm is the peak, but in reality, reaching the Progenitor Realm is just the peak of the cultivation realm. They are still human, a person with flesh and blood and emotions. Only by crossing Ku Ah can they transcend and become a different kind of life form, not limited to the human race."
"I am helping the Grand Empyrean cross Ku Ah."
"I sacrificed myself and my descendants to help the Grand Empyrean cross Ku Ah."
Lu Yin was puzzled, "How?"
She Sheng shook his head, "If I knew, I wouldn't be in the Progenitor Realm."
"Ku Ah represents a person's most selfish desire, and this desire is magnified countless times. This is something I've heard before. Thus, everyone who crosses Ku Ah is a madman, including the Grand Empyrean."
"The Grand Empyrean's wish is to deal with the only True God, which becomes a natural moat for her to cross Ku Ah. Because of this, she always thinks about herself. What Lu Family? What spy? Nothing is within her scope of consideration. She is willing to sacrifice everything to satisfy her selfishness and greed."
"Once she crosses Ku Ah's greed, selfishness …
Once she crosses Ku Ah's greed, she becomes another life form. I've never seen such a life form before. Perhaps she is still human, or perhaps she is not human. "
Lu Yin frowned. Selfishness magnified countless times?
This was Ku Ah?
Everyone who crosses Ku Ah was a madman?
"However, in their own eyes, they are not wrong." She Sheng looked at Lu Yin, "Master Lu, in the future, you will also cross Ku Ah."
Lu Yin looked at She Sheng, "Are you saying that I will also become a madman?"
She Sheng's gaze was complicated, "Humans are creatures, and as long as they are creatures, they cannot escape their desires. No one is an exception. Even those who disregard life and death have their own desires. Ku Ah is to overcome this desire. What is Master Lu's desire?"
Lu Yin laughed, "I also want to defeat the Eternals."
She Sheng nodded, "Very good. It doesn't matter if you are a Saint or a madman, as long as you can help humanity defeat the Eternals."
Lu Yin picked up his teacup and swirled it, "What you just said, are you trying to excuse the Grand Empyrean from banishing my Lu family?"
She Sheng smiled, "Of course not. I'm just telling you the reason. The Grand Empyrean does not need me to excuse her. You can't do anything to her."
"She has reached the Primordial Realm and is someone who has crossed Ku Ah. I don't know what level your Lu family's ancestor, Lu Yuan, is at, but he is definitely not someone who has crossed Ku Ah. There has never been anyone who has crossed Ku Ah in the universe, or else the situation would have changed a long time ago."
"Even the only True God has not crossed Ku Ah?" Lu Yin asked.
She Sheng said, "Perhaps the Eternals are the only True God's Ku Ah."
Lu Yin's eyes widened. Right, if the Grand Empyrean wanted to satisfy her desire to defeat the Eternals, then the only True God could use the Eternals' desire to defeat humanity. Perhaps that was also a way to cross Ku Ah.
"You know quite a lot. I wonder how strong you are?" Lu Yin looked at She Sheng curiously. This person gave him a fearless feeling, and Lu Yin did not know where to start.
She Sheng was helpless, "I don't have the strength. I only have the appearance to help the Grand Empyrean cross Ku Ah. Once the Grand Empyrean succeeds, I will disappear, and that will be the time for my descendants to rise. That is why I asked Master Lu to release Tuo Lin from the beginning. This era does not belong to him."
"My descendants only need to live."
Lu Yin put down his teacup, "You called me here just to say this?"
She Sheng met Lu Yin's gaze, "Master Lu, if you insist on not sending Tuo Lin back, then this old man who might die at any moment asks you to treat him well."
Then, he stood up and bowed deeply to Lu Yin.
Lu Yin's expression was calm. "He is my disciple, so I know what to do. You've told me all this today so that I can understand why the Grand Empyrean is a crazy woman. I will use my own method to get back at her."
She Sheng did not speak.
"You don't have any objections to unifying the Six Direction Society, right?" Lu Yin suddenly asked, his lips curling up as he smiled at She Sheng.
She Sheng laughed, "The matters of the outside world have nothing to do with me. What Master Lu does is not something an old man like me can decide."
"However, this old man has lived for too long, and I have some words of advice for Master Lu."
He looked at Lu Yin seriously, "There are some things that you should not be too stubborn about. Stubbornness will turn into heart demons, and the more heart demons there are, the more Ku Ah will suffer. If you cannot cross Ku Ah, then you will be a madman. But if you cross Ku Ah, then you may not be human."
Lu Yin's eyes flickered, and he looked deeply at She Sheng before turning to leave.
Looking at Lu Yin's departing figure, She Sheng muttered to himself, "The purer a person is, the easier it is for them to cross Ku Ah. But at this level of cultivation, who is still pure?"
"I hope this child does not become a madman."
