On the other side, Lu Yin arrived at the Lost Clan's spacetime and met with their grand elder.
The Lost Clan's presence was the lowest among the Six Directions, even lower than the Three Sovereigns' spacetime. This was not because they were weak, but because they were too isolated and incompatible with other civilizations.
Due to Shaoyin's deliberate instigation, the Lost Clan did not have a good impression of the Reincarnation Spacetime and were unwilling to communicate with other civilizations. However, they were friendly to Lu Yin. In the grand elder's heart, Lu Yin was the person who could draw out the ancient card.
After quietly listening to Lu Yin, the grand elder finally shook his head. "I'm sorry, Master Lu, but we do not agree to connect spacetime."
Lu Yin was surprised. "Why?
Shaoyin is a traitor, and other civilizations can get along well with the Lost Clan. "
"Especially after the establishment of the Six Directions Training Grounds, many people have chosen the Lost Clan's cultivation method."
The grand elder raised his hand to stop Lu Yin. "Getting along with other civilizations is not a problem, but connecting spacetime is out of the question."
"Can you tell me why?" Lu Yin asked.
Grand Elder Shan Gu stood up and thought for a moment. "If someone else asked, I would only say 'no comment,' but since it's you, Master Lu, you're making things difficult for me."
Lu Yin looked at Grand Elder Shan Gu. "The Everlasting Race is the mortal enemy of mankind. Now that there is hope to defeat them, why not do it?"
Grand Elder Shan Gu turned his back to Lu Yin. "Can we really defeat them?"
Lu Yin answered in a low voice, "Yes."
Grand Elder Shan Gu laughed and looked back at Lu Yin. "The only True God cannot be defeated."
"If we don't do it, we won't even have a chance to defeat them. If we haven't done it before, why not give it a try?
Does Grand Elder really want to restore the previous situation?
The boundless battlefield of the Millstone of Life and Death, the border battlefield with danger at every step, and the spies everywhere … This is not good for the Lost Clan. Once the Six Directions Association is destroyed, the Lost Clan will not be able to survive alone, "Lu Yin said.
Grand Elder Shan Gu nodded. "Very persuasive, but I still refuse."
Lu Yin frowned. "I want to know the reason, or I won't give up."
In Lu Yin's opinion, the Void God Spacetime and the Wood Spacetime were not too big of a problem. Void Master and Wood God were aloof from worldly affairs, and they also sincerely wanted to defeat the Everlasting Race. The Reincarnation Spacetime was powerful with a Grand Empyrean overseer, so Lu Yin did not care whether it was connected to the Origin Space or not.
Therefore, he put the Lost Clan at the end because he felt that the Lost Clan was the hardest to convince.
This was indeed the case.
It was one thing for him to be difficult to convince, but he wasn't even willing to tell him the reason.
If not for the fact that the Lost Clan was human, Lu Yin would have suspected that this civilization was in cahoots with the Everlasting Race.
Grand Elder Shan Gu sighed. "Even if you defeat the Eternals, what happens next?
The war will never stop. The Above Heaven Sect will have its glorious moments and also its weak moments. In any case, it is war. Rather than humans killing each other, why don't we deal with external enemies? "
Lu Yin frowned. "So the Eternals are allowed to exist?"
Great Elder Dan Gu didn't say anything, remaining silent.
Lu Yin laughed in exasperation. "This reason is too far-fetched. No matter what happens to the human race in the future, the blood debts of the past must be repaid. What about those who risked their lives for the human race and fought against the Eternals?
Speak?
If you have the same thoughts as Great Elder, then there is no need to fight with the Eternal Race. You can even join the Eternal Race. In any case, you can keep your human identity, so why not? "
"Great Elder, your words are the greatest insult to those who died in battle."
These words showed that Lu Yin was really angry. He could understand the fear of death, the avoidance of responsibility, and even the betrayal, but he couldn't understand Great Elder Dan Gu's negative attitude. This attitude was even more hateful than those traitors.
Those traitors were just a part of the war. Since there was a war, there would be traitors. Everyone knew that traitors couldn't escape the war, but such a negative attitude could easily lead to the collapse of the war.
In the past, Lu Yin had respected Great Elder Dan Gu very much. He felt that the Lost Clan's Ancient Card was very likely to bring about a breakthrough for the human race. It was a bargaining chip to defeat the Eternals in the future. Moreover, Great Elder Dan Gu had treated him well. He had helped him hide the matter of the Ancient Card and had even given him Eternal Darkness. The Lost Clan had also helped him in battle. For this reason, Dan Pu had died in battle.
In the Six Direction Society, the Lost Clan had supported him earlier than the Void God Universe and the Wood Universe.
However, support was one thing, and whether or not they were willing to connect with other parallel universes was another. Lu Yin knew that the Lost Clan was xenophobic, so he had been thinking about how to persuade Great Elder Dan Gu, but he hadn't expected Great Elder Dan Gu to have such thoughts.
This showed that they didn't want to fight against the Eternals at all. Everything they were doing now was because they were forced.
Lu Yin stood up and stared at Great Elder Dan Gu. "Senior, I don't know what the Lost Clan has experienced, but I know that no matter how desperate it is, there will always be a way out. There are no absolutes in the universe. Since we humans were born, we won't die so easily. With people, there will be disputes, but this is not a reason for the Eternals to continue to exist."
At this point, he remembered what Hongyan Mavis had said. Lu Yin had asked her why the Above Heaven era hadn't destroyed the Eternals and allowed them to grow. Hongyan Mavis agreed with the Progenitor's reasoning. Even if the Eternals weren't an enemy, there would be other enemies.
Perhaps she had said it, or perhaps it had been the Progenitor who had said it. No species could be eternal. Without the suppression of an enemy, humanity would definitely reach the peak. This was not in accordance with the laws of the universe, which was why the Eternals were the enemy. If the Eternals didn't exist, there would be other enemies.
This was the reason why the Progenitor had allowed the Eternals to continue to exist. However, Great Elder Dan Gu had denied humanity's existence. This was the reason why the Eternals continued to exist.
No matter how dignified or reasonable these reasons were, in Lu Yin's opinion, they were all nonsense. Whether it was the Eternals or other enemies, they would deal with them when they appeared. If they appeared, they would fight them. If they appeared, they would kill them. Were they supposed to wait for their enemies to grow stronger and suppress humanity instead? This was the right way to go.
Lu Yin didn't agree with the Progenitor's philosophy. If he had been the Progenitor, he would have destroyed the Eternals and any species that appeared in the universe that threatened humanity. Even if the outcome was worse, could it be worse than the present?
The Progenitor couldn't predict the future. The bridge that fate had built in the river of time had an end, but the river of time had no end. No one could foresee what would happen to humanity in the future. Perhaps they would destroy their enemies, or perhaps they would be destroyed by them. Regardless of the situation, the most important thing was to take care of the present.
Lu Yin only wanted to destroy the Eternals. He didn't want humanity to reach the peak of glory. He only wanted to live an ordinary life.
Even if it was just a short period of time.
If the Eternals were destroyed, then there would be an internal war. So what? That was humanity's own choice. However, there was a precondition: the Eternals had to be destroyed.
"If all the cultivators of the Six-Way Society were to vote, I believe that all of them would want to destroy the Eternals. Even if the outcome was an internal war, dying at the hands of humanity would still be better than dying at the hands of the Eternals," Lu Yin said solemnly.
Great Elder Dan Gu turned around and looked at Lu Yin. "We can't find our home."
Lu Yin was stunned. What did he mean?
Great Elder Dan Gu's expression was complicated, and there was an indescribable sorrow in his eyes. "We can't find our home."
"We had a home, and it was a magnificent world. There weren't just one or two people at my level of cultivation, but there were also people who were far stronger than me. However, all of them died."
At this point, Great Elder Dan Gu seemed to recall something, and there was a hint of fear in his eyes. For a powerhouse like him, as long as they were not facing death, fear should have long since left their minds.
"We struggled and fought, and we went through a great war between different races. In the end, we defeated our enemy. That enemy seemed even more terrifying than the Eternals, and they had countless powerhouses. We won, and our world was preserved. But the moment we saw the glory of victory, everything changed."
"They died right in front of our eyes."
Great Elder Dan Gu clenched his fists, and blood dripped down from his fingers onto the ground. "That unimaginable existence was furious. Our enemy was that existence's servant, and he was furious. He said that we shouldn't have won, that we should have been destroyed, and that he wanted everything to start over again. However, we won, so he wanted the ending to follow his plan. He set everything on its path.
"At that moment, I saw the truth of the universe. It was laughable, truly laughable. We thought that we had won, but how much did we pay?
So many powerhouses who returned from the past died in that battle, but in the end, this was the result. "
Great Elder Dan Gu suppressed his voice. He had lost his composure, and this was the first time Lu Yin had seen him lose his composure. His entire being sank into confusion, grief, and hatred.
He stared at Lu Yin. "Those powerhouses who have survived since ancient times, those ancestors, and those who have protected us are all dead. None of them can move in front of that existence. Not a single one."
He growled, "Why? Those powerhouses were so powerful that even I couldn't reach them, but they were easily wiped out by that existence. They had no chance of surviving, just so that the ending he had set wouldn't be disrupted. That's all, that's all. Hahahaha, laughable, laughable. Tell me, why did we risk our lives?
Was it just to complete someone else's game? "
"Hahahaha, everyone has put in countless years of hard work, but it all turned into bubbles in a single day. Only us remnant races managed to escape. This is the only pity left by that existence. Maybe, in his eyes, we can't even be considered as ants."
Lu Yin's eyes flickered. "When did this happen?"
Great Elder Dan Gu took a deep breath and closed his eyes. After a long time, he calmed down and waved his hand tiredly. "Master Lu, please do as you wish. I'll rest for a while."
Lu Yin stood where he was, not daring to believe that he had heard wrongly. Powerhouses who far surpassed Great Elder Dan Gu had been easily wiped out by some existence?
Such an existence existed?
