Lu Yin stopped, puzzled. "Bottom line?"
Mu Ji's lips curled up. "Have you heard of it? The Sequence of Strings?"
Lu Yin's eyes flickered. Forefather Lu Yuan had mentioned the Sequence of Strings before, and it was related to White Cloud City. They were afraid that it would affect their own cultivation, so they did not say much.
"It seems like you don't know much about it. Let's put it this way. The Sequence of Strings is the foundation of countless parallel universes. You can think of it as lines that divide space-time into countless planes. Every line has a connection point. Several or even dozens of lines will have a large connection point. Once this connection point is destroyed, the connected Sequence of Strings will loosen and might even collapse."
"The Eternals are constantly destroying space-time to destroy these connection points. They want to collapse the Sequence of Strings and crush countless parallel universes to achieve their goal of controlling the universe."
Lu Yin's eyes turned cold as he stared at Mu Ji.
"Why, you don't believe me?
Hehe, at our level, this is common knowledge. Didn't the ancestors tell you?
Every True God guard captain knows this. "Mu Ji smiled.
Lu Yin's eyes were cold. "That's good. They can quickly crush these parallel universes."
"Yes, that's good. Initially, the Eternals were destroying the connection points of the Sequence of Strings they discovered, but White Cloud City suddenly intervened. That angered the Eternals, which led to a full-scale war." Mu Ji stretched and walked down the temple.
Lu Yin was puzzled. "Since they knew that the destruction of the connection points would cause countless parallel universes to collapse, White Cloud City should have stopped them long ago, including the humans. Why did they only do it now?"
Mu Ji was disdainful. "Because of balance."
"The Eternals destroyed the connection points, while Immemorial City, the Hexagon Society, and some extraterrestrial powerhouses stopped them, forming a temporary balance. This balance has been maintained for a very long time. No one believed that the other side could maintain it forever. The Eternals did not believe that Immemorial City and the humans could defend themselves. They used all methods, but the humans also did not believe that the Eternals could destroy the connection points. There are too many of them, and even if some were destroyed, it would not matter."
"White Cloud City has its own problems. They did not participate in this matter in the past, but now that White Cloud City's problems have been resolved, they came to cause trouble for the Eternals. They attacked Calamity Zone and stopped the destruction of the connection points. Do you think the race will not care?
They must think of a way to solve this problem. "
"To the clan, the balance that the humans see is only what they want the humans to see. However, once the White Cloud City joins in, it will truly be balanced. Who would want true balance?"
Lu Yin's eyes flashed. "To the humans, the balance that the clan sees might be what they want the clan to see."
Mu Ji laughed, "Perhaps. No matter what, White Cloud City's sudden involvement has completely angered the True Gods. This war is unavoidable, and White Cloud City will not have an easy time. Our clan's foundation will be revealed step by step. Perhaps after a period of time, both our positions will drop. Captain Ye Bo, I know you don't trust me, but for my life, I will not try to control you. So, if we can cooperate, then let's cooperate. There are good and bad relationships between the captains of the True God Guards.
"So Dual Blade School has been preventing me from talking to you?" Lu Yin asked.
Mu Ji nodded with a smile. "It's good that you understand. If you don't reach the Sequence's rules, you'll always be an ant. If you want to survive, it's best to stick together. I also want to cooperate with Dual Blades, but unfortunately, they don't trust me, so forget it."
As he spoke, the Ancestor of the Ancient Era walked out of the shrine.
She had heard the conversation between Mu Ji and Lu Yin, but she did not stop them.
Just as Mu Ji had said, the Sequence's String was not a secret to certain levels, and the captains of the True God Guards were qualified to know.
There was no need for her to explain everything to Lu Yin, and she would not stop Mu Ji from speaking.
Mu Ji walked to Lu Yin's side and glanced at the Ancestor of the Ancient Era. He whispered, "By the way, let me remind you that our mission will appear soon. There aren't many corpses left under the Divine Lake. We've used them in batches before, and there's no time to accumulate them. This time, they will all be used up."
With that, he left.
Lu Yin looked back at the Ancestor of the Ancient Era.
The Ancestor of the Ancient Era looked into the distance, took a step, and disappeared.
Lu Yin returned to the tower and sat quietly, thinking about what Mu Ji had said.
The Eternals' main goal was the Sequence's String. By destroying it, they could collapse all the parallel universes. Could this really be done?
He had also guessed the meaning of Immemorial City. Perhaps it was to suppress the Sequence's String so that it would not collapse.
One was theoretically able to destroy parallel universes, and the other was born to deal with such a theory. From Lu Yin's point of view, this theory had a huge problem.
If destroying the Sequence's String could really collapse the universe, then what would happen to the powerhouses from the outer realms who were helping the Eternals?
Would they all gather in the Disaster Region?
Obviously not.
If those powerhouses were willing to help the Eternals, then they definitely had their reasons. If the universe was destroyed, where would they survive?
Lu Yin muttered to himself. The Eternals wanted the humans to see balance, so was this a plan that the Eternals wanted the humans to know about?
Regardless of whether Mu Ji was right or not, he was right about one thing: the mission would appear on the third day.
The seven captains of the True God Guard were each given a mission to destroy seven parallel universes.
The parallel universes that Lu Yin was to destroy were connected to the Ice Spirit Clan and belonged to them. This was also a connection point.
The other captains were to destroy parallel universes that belonged to the Five Spirit Clans and the Three Moons Alliance.
The Eternals had long since discovered too many connection points for the Sequence's String. They had not attacked these parallel universes in the past since they belonged to the Five Spirit Clans, but things were different now. Not only did they have to destroy the parallel universes that belonged to Yu Huo and the gargoyle, but they also had to destroy the parallel universes that belonged to the Five Spirit Clans, the Three Moons Alliance, and White Cloud City.
The mission came in a hurry. After confirming the stargate, the captains set off without bringing any Progenitor Corpse Kings.
The True God Guard's Progenitor Corpse Kings had been reduced from a hundred to less than fifty. The Six-Direction Society's war, the Endless Battlefield, and the Disaster Region's battle had continuously depleted the Progenitor Corpse Kings, but there were not endless Progenitor Corpse Kings.
The remaining Progenitor Corpse Kings had all been taken away to participate in other battles.
After passing through the stargate, Lu Yin arrived at an unfamiliar region of space. He looked around and then headed into the distance.
This region was connected to the Ice Spirit Clan, and the creatures that existed here had been purged by them. To the original creatures of this region, the Ice Spirit Clan was an enemy, just like how the Eternals were an enemy to the humans.
In this universe, the division between friend and foe was very simple.
This was the most primitive rule of survival.
Along the way, Lu Yin saw the Ice Spirit Clan. After confirming that he had not come to the wrong place, he tore through the void and headed straight for the Eternal Kingdom to return to the Above Heaven.
At this moment, the Above Heaven was waiting for White Cloud City's reply. They wanted to know how to help them.
Lu Yin's return excited Elder Chan and the others.
"Why is it here?
It's here? "Lu Yin was surprised.
In the Above Heaven Sect's main hall, Big Sister, Senior Brother Qing Ping, Senior Brother Mu Xie, Leng Qing, and the others were all present. Half of the Progenitor Realm experts were gathered in the Origin Space.
"Jiang Chen has requested for help. White Cloud City's situation is probably not good." Elder Chan immediately said.
Lu Yin solemnly said, "I came back for this matter." Speaking of this, he looked at Senior Brother Qing Ping in surprise, "Senior Brother, you …?"
Qing Ping's expression was calm, "Progenitor Realm."
Lu Yin was dumbfounded, "Didn't you fail?"
Big Sister grinned, "Congratulations, Little Seven. This senior brother of yours has walked a different path. Although he failed the Progenitor Realm Origin Tribulation, he was still able to return to the Progenitor Realm. This matter has made the half-step Ancestors in the Origin Space excited. They can't wait to break through to the Progenitor Realm."
Lu Yin was overjoyed, "Really? That's great! Congratulations, Senior Brother."
Even a solemn person like Qing Ping had a rare smile on his face.
Lu Yin heaved a sigh of relief. As expected of a disciple that Mister Mu had acknowledged. Senior Brother Mu Xie had single-handedly defeated countless members of the Six Direction Society, and even the Seven Skygods had taken note of him. Senior Brother Mu Xie's strength was unfathomable, and now, Senior Brother Qing Ping had actually been able to walk another path.
"Since Senior Brother has broken through to the Progenitor Realm, we have more than enough manpower. Everyone, the Eternals and White Cloud City have started an all-out war. This has caused White Cloud City to be unable to rescue the Five Spirit Races and the Three Moon Alliance. We also can't spare any manpower to stop the Eternals from destroying the space-time. I, Lu Yin, as the Above Heaven Sect's Dao Master and the Master of the Origin Space, give the order."
Everyone was solemn.
"Nether Ancestor, Qing Ping, Mu Xie, Shaochen, Xu Wuwei, and Mu Xie are to head to six different space-time and stop the Eternals from destroying the space-time."
Even though Big Sister and the others didn't understand what Lu Yin was talking about, they only needed to listen to Lu Yin's orders.
"Didn't you say there are seven space-time?
Since you're disguised as Ye Bo, shouldn't you be in charge of one space-time? "Elder Chan reminded him.
Lu Yin frowned. Yes, his space-time also needed people to act, or his identity as Ye Bo would be wasted.
"I'll go." A loud shout came from outside the main hall. Lu Qi walked out of the void.
Lu Yin looked over. "Dad?"
Lu Qi grinned. "Little Seven, let me join in."
Lu Yin was troubled. "If you go, what about the Astral Tree?"
"With Forefather Tianyi overseeing, there's nothing to be afraid of even if the Sole True God comes. Besides, Forefather Lu Yuan is only in seclusion. He's not dead," Lu Qi said loudly.
Lu Yin was speechless. If the Forefather heard this, he would have a hard time.
Lu Yin didn't hesitate. If others could go, then Lu Qi could go as well. Besides, Lu Yin was the one who had asked for it.
This was what it meant to be a cultivator. Whether it was life or death, they had to fight.
"Contact Xu Wuwei and Mu Xie. We'll set off as soon as they arrive. There's no time to lose," Lu Yin formally ordered.
Not long after, Shaochen, Xu Wuwei, and Mu Xie arrived.
Xu Wuwei had been delaying the berserk corpses at the edge of the Void God Space-Time, but this time, he had to take action. Forefather Lu Tianyi had personally gone to the Void God Space-Time to deal with the berserk corpses.
If possible, Lu Yin also wanted to ask Forefather Lu Tianyi to deal with all the berserk corpses in the Six Direction Society. However, this kind of thing could only be done once. Once it was done, the Eternals could use similar methods to set a trap for Lu Tianyi. Sometimes, when faced with a situation, there were clearly people who could resolve it, but they couldn't.
Mu Xie had personally killed the berserk corpses in the Wood Space-Time.
