The Ancestor of the Giants was stunned. He looked at Lu Yin and clicked his tongue. "Master Lu, is it? Your strength is a bit exaggerated."
He had been forced back by Yu Wei earlier, so he could imagine that Lu Yin's strength wouldn't have made him feel any better.
Even though he was in the Primordial Realm, he had no advantage against a monster that hadn't even reached the level of the Sequence Laws. How did this kid cultivate?
Lu Yin looked at the Ancestor of the Giants. Back then, he had disguised himself as Yebo and taken Qi away with a single arm. He should have been the one to fight Primordial Eccentric.
"Senior, please hold down the bone ship."
The Ancestor of the Giants looked outside Primeval City. "Understood. Please wait a moment."
He looked underground. "It's over. From the moment you joined the Everlasting Race, our race removed you." With that, he clenched his hands and smashed down.
Primeval City shook and a huge crack appeared.
Underground, the Corpse God's head shattered. She was completely dead.
The Ancestor of the Giants sighed and walked out of Primeval City, heading towards the bone ship.
Lu Yin headed towards the Primogenitor at the center of Primeval City. Just as he left, an oval-shaped seed flew out from where the Corpse God had died and headed towards the black mother tree.
The Corpse God's corpse had completely disappeared.
He had originally come from the Immortal Art.
That seed was the Immortal Art's seed.
Lu Yin looked back and saw the seed. He hurriedly chased after it, but it disappeared and then reappeared before the True God.
The True God looked at the seed. "The first seed."
Lu Yin frowned. "Don't kill those who have come back from the dead. Just control them."
The True God was calm and expressionless.
Lu Yin felt that something was off. The three ultimate techniques of the True God had their own uses. He already knew that the Corpse God and the others had been revived by the Immortal Art, but since they had been revived and died, there was no corpse. Only a seed remained. There was definitely something wrong.
The only thing he could do was stop those who had come back from the dead from becoming seeds.
Lu Yin looked deeply at the True God before heading to the center of Primeval City to meet the Primogenitor.
A person stood beside the Primogenitor. His name was Yi Wei.
He was the first force that protected the Primogenitor, while Mu Zhu was the second.
Lu Yin had come to find the Primogenitor to return Chu Chen. When he saw Yi Wei, his eyes narrowed..
Yi Wei was confused. "Have we met before?"
Lu Yin looked at him, thought for a moment, and then shook his head. "I've never seen him before." He then walked towards the Progenitor.
The progenitor looked at Lu Yin, "Zhu Zi, you're here."
Yi Wei laughed. Pillars?
"Progenitor, my name is Lu Yin."
"I know. Zhu Zi, well done. Without you, Primeval City would be finished." The primogenitor's voice rang out.
Lu Yin sighed and suddenly attacked Yi Wei, placing a hand on his head. Yi Wei reacted quickly, as he was an expert who was qualified to protect a primogenitor. However, Lu Yin had already predicted his actions, and he used his absolute strength to push aside the particle and place his hand on Yi Wei's head.
Yi Wei subconsciously stood in front of the progenitor and stared at Lu Yin.
The Progenitor watched calmly as Lu Yin attacked Yi Wei and bit down on the Sequence's String.
"What's your relationship with the Ancient Gods?" Lu Yin asked. He had met Yi Wei before, but Yi Wei had never met him.
In the Mirage Domain, when he was fishing the River of Time with his strength, he saw Ancient.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The Ancient Gods were fighting with someone, and in the end, that person was knocked unconscious but not killed. Instead, that person was thrown into a parallel universe.
That person was Yi Wei.
Lu Yin had not expected to meet this person here. There were only two possibilities for this person to be spared by the Ancient Gods. First, this person had betrayed humanity and joined the Eternal Race, so the Ancient Gods spared him. Second, there was something wrong with the Ancient Gods joining the Eternal Race. Otherwise, why would they let this person go?
Since this person could protect the Progenitor, Lu Yin's worst guess was that this person was a spy of the Eternal Race who had approached the Progenitor in an attempt to attack him.
Of course, this possibility was not high. Otherwise, the Ancient Gods would not have waited until now. However, Lu Yin had no choice but to guard against this situation.
Yi Wei stared at Lu Yin, "Gu Yizhi?"
"I saw Gu Yizhi sparing your life and throwing you into a parallel universe," Lu Yin said.
Yi Wei understood, "So the aura of time back then came from you. You were the one who saw our battle through the River of Time."
"You knew?"
"Gu Yizhi said so."
Lu Yin was stunned and looked at Yi Wei.
The Progenitor's voice rang out, "Zhu Zi, let go. He's fine."
Lu Yin looked at the Progenitor and slowly released his hand, "Gu Yizhi joined the Eternal Race. Is there a problem?"
The Progenitor sighed, "My disciples are all very good, and Da Qiang is no exception."
"He's being controlled by the One True God," Lu Yin said.
The Progenitor was helpless, "Yes, so a lot of sacrifices were made."
Lu Yin understood that there had always been human spies in the Seven Skygods. This was the truth. When Hei Wushen had pretended to betray the Eternal Race, they had believed that Hei Wushen was a human spy. However, this was not the case. Hei Wushen had been ordered by the One True God to act against them at the critical moment. The real human spy was the Ancient God, Gu Yizhi.
Lu Yin had thought of many people, but he had never thought of the Ancient God. The Ancient God was one of the top powerhouses of the Three Realms and Six Paths. Why would he deliberately seek refuge with the Eternal Race?
If he had not sought refuge with the Eternal Race, the human race's situation would have been much better. Later, when he found out that the Ancient God was being controlled by the One True God, it was even less likely that he was a spy.
How could someone who was being controlled by the One True God be a spy?
Even the One True God would not have thought of this.
However, the Ancient God really was a spy. He was the highest-ranking spy that the humans had placed in the Eternal Race.
He was the leader of the Seven Skygods and one of the Three Chiefs.
What was he trying to do?
Humans were a strange race. Their weaknesses were obvious, but their strengths were also obvious.
When humans were above the rest of the universe, they would unconsciously look further and higher. They would not be able to see the darkness that grew in the dark corners of the universe. As a result, they had been schemed against by the Eternal Race and destroyed continent after continent.
However, when humans faced a desperate situation, there would always be someone who would stand up. Even if they had to pay a heavy price, whether it was strength or wisdom, they would always be able to make up for their losses.
There were two words that were branded in the human spirit: inheritance and sacrifice.
When the human race appeared in the universe, it was destined that it would not be a flash in the pan.
"What is Senior Gu trying to do?" Lu Yin asked.
The Progenitor's gaze was melancholy, "He wants to find the truth."
"What truth?"
"The truth behind the destruction of the First Continent. The truth behind my defeat to the Protectors."
"Does Senior Gu know that you were besieged by the Protectors?" Lu Yin asked.
(This chapter is not finished. Please turn the page.)
The Progenitor looked at Lu Yin, "I didn't know at first. He was a very pure person. The Above Heaven Sect was destroyed, and the continents were destroyed one by one. The Eternal Race was the only one who benefited the most from my disappearance. When he realized this, he let go of everything, including the Third Continent, and allowed it to be destroyed by the Eternal Race. He betrayed the humans and joined the Eternal Race just to find me.
"By the time I found out, it was already too late. He would rather be controlled by the Eternal Race to find the truth behind my disappearance. He believed that no one in this universe was my match, even if the Protectors worked together."
Lu Yin could not help but ask, "Then, what was the truth?"
The Progenitor smiled, "He guessed right, but he also guessed wrong."
"The Protectors of the Four Directions?
They were just four pieces of trash. Even if they were in the Primordial Realm, they weren't worthy of my name. Their siege was laughable, and they were no match for me. They couldn't even break out of Sky Palace. Da Qiang guessed right on this point, but he was wrong on another point. My defeat had nothing to do with the Eternal Race.
"Wu Da was the first to find out. He personally experienced what it felt like to be watched by that existence.
"That existence, I call it."
"Fate," Lu Yin continued.
The Progenitor nodded, "Yes, fate. It's a very appropriate name. That existence is fate, and it stopped me from breaking through to the Eternal Life Realm. When those four besieged me, it was that existence that allowed them to succeed. My hands were sealed, and I had no choice but to cut them off to save my life. If it weren't for Old Man Mu, I would have been dead.
"Speaking of which, Old Man Mu is still very experienced. After all, he had encountered it before."
Lu Yin was surprised, "Master?"
"Yes, your master. He is not from our universe. The universe he was in was also destroyed in the final battle. Humans were defeated, but in his words, if it weren't for the intervention of fate, he could have stepped into the Eternal Life Realm at the last moment and turned the situation around. Unfortunately, he was still defeated."
"I quite admire him. He was defeated by fate, but he was still able to escape and retain his current strength. I was defeated by fate and lost my hands. I am half-dead here. I owe your master my life."
Lu Yin had not expected things to turn out this way. He finally understood what had happened to the First Mainland.
The Guardians surrounded the Progenitor, and Wu Tian arrived. He experienced the extreme coldness of being watched by fate, and the Progenitor sent him flying so that he could not get close.
The interference of fate caused the Progenitor's hands to be sealed by the Four Locks Formation. He had no choice but to cut off his own hands to save his life. Fortunately, Mister Mu arrived and took him away.
After the Progenitor was taken away by Mister Mu, Jialan Zhiluo arrived and saw the aftermath of Tian Feng's attack. He followed Tian Feng and was sealed in his body.
The destruction of the First Mainland had begun the process of the Above Heaven Sect's destruction.
This was the truth behind the destruction of the First Mainland, and it was a cruel truth.
The root of everything was fate.
In order to find the truth behind the Progenitor's disappearance, the Ancient Gods had targeted the Eternal Race and betrayed the humans. They were willing to be controlled by the only True God to join the Eternal Race.
"How long did Senior Gu know that you were in Immemorial City?" Lu Yin asked.
The Progenitor recalled, "He was brought here by the Welcoming Mountain."
"Welcoming Mountain?" Lu Yin was puzzled, but then he thought of something and blurted out, "That tree that escaped?"
The Progenitor laughed, "It is very good at escaping. It is a tree that was planted in Immemorial City. It can guide the flames of Immemorial City and travel through various battlefields. Those who are fated can follow the tree to Immemorial City and preserve the human legacy."
