"Why are you suddenly asking this?" The progenitor was surprised.
Lu Yin explained everything that had happened to Karma and Tianen, "Only the flames in Immemorial City and Uncle Jiang's turbid treasure destroyed the word 'heaven'. I can't help but suspect that the flames are also turbid treasures."
The progenitor praised, "Zhu Zi, you are very smart. Not only are the flames a turbid treasure, but the entire city is as well."
Lu Yin was shocked, "The entire city is a turbid treasure?"
The progenitor looked up, "It used to be a turbid treasure. When we first arrived at Immemorial City, we confirmed that it was a turbid treasure, but as time passed and the Eternals attacked, the turbid treasure rotted away. If we had just arrived at Immemorial City, the bone ship wouldn't have been able to break in."
"Whose turbid treasure is Immemorial City?" Lu Yin hurriedly asked.
The progenitor shook his head, "Our civilization isn't the only one in this universe. There were other civilizations before us, but I'm not sure if they were humans or if they even existed. Immemorial City doesn't belong to our era."
"Also, the word 'heaven' you mentioned must be a method used by fate to control the Four Guardians. I wonder how many powerhouses are controlled by fate in this universe."
Lu Yin walked out of the underground and saw that Immemorial City was bustling with activity. The powerhouses here were in high spirits. Victory was an extravagant hope for them, and now that they had appeared, they might not even know where to go after leaving Immemorial City.
The powerhouses here had too many connections with the outside world.
Big Sister would chase after Ce Wangtian and beat him relentlessly.
Mina sat alone on a broken wall. That was where Babar had used the Nine Stars Rebirth.
Lu Yuan, Wu Tian, and the others were chatting with Chu Yi.
The Desolate Ancestor sat beside Victorious Celestial. Victorious Celestial was heavily injured and couldn't even sit up.
It was as if anyone in the outside world would be able to find the person they were looking for.
Many people stood on the broken wall and stared at the flames. Too many had died in the flames, and they were lost in thought.
Lu Yin looked in a certain direction; it was the Burial Garden.
He saw that many people were also looking at the battlefield in Immemorial City. Most of them didn't have the qualifications to enter this battlefield, including the Mountain Protector and the Prime Clear.
Their strength was still too far away from this battlefield.
The Yellow Springs flowed around the Burial Garden.
The progenitor didn't intend to withdraw his hand, and the Burial Garden would still exist.
Lu Yin took a step forward and entered the burial garden, arriving not too far away from Progenitor Chen.
Ancestor Chen looked at the Yellow Spring Sea in a daze. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Senior, was that palm strike the one that you created to deal with the One True God?" Lu Yin asked.
Progenitor Chen retracted his gaze and looked at Lu Yin with a melancholy expression. "That's right. I thought that I could deal with him, but I'm still lacking by quite a bit."
"What's that palm strike called?" Lu Yin was curious. Although he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he had heard that Progenitor Chen had destroyed Ancestor Xi with a single palm strike.
That was their former ancestor, a Primordial realm expert, the former Qing Luo Sword God. Even though she had fallen in cultivation for some reason, she had still dominated the battlefield several times and turned the situation around. Killing her was extremely difficult.
However, Progenitor Chen had managed to annihilate it with a single palm strike. Even the current Lu Yin wasn't confident that he could accomplish such a feat.
Patriarch Chen smiled bitterly. "It's not my own strength, but a borrowed one. As for a name, I haven't thought of one yet. Let's just call it Consecutive Palm."
"Consecutive palm strikes?
It's really a random name, but it's very appropriate. "
Progenitor Chen looked at Lu Yin, "You want to learn?"
Lu Yin didn't hesitate. "Yes." He wanted to learn any strength. The starry sky in his heart was all-encompassing, and he wasn't afraid of too many things.
Progenitor Chen laughed. "Alright, I'll teach you if you want to learn. Speaking of which, you're the one who cultivates the most out of all the people I've met, but you're also the most profound. Your path is also the broadest."
Consecutive Palm Strikes was difficult to cultivate, but it was very convenient to teach.
Even Lu Yin would need some time to learn Consecutive Palm Strikes.
"Senior, what's up with the Forgotten Ruins Deity?
Were you the one who left the image on her face? "Lu Yin asked.
Progenitor Chen's expression turned solemn at the mention of the Forgotten Ruins Deity. "You've all underestimated her."
Lu Yin felt the same way. He had previously thought that the Forgotten Ruins Deity was at the level of the Seven Skygods. Perhaps she was at the bottom of the Seven Skygods, but she had survived the battle of Immemorial City multiple times. Furthermore, when he had tracked down the bone vessel, he hadn't seen the Forgotten Ruins Deity or Wang Xiaoyu.
He didn't know what the reason was, but the Forgotten Ruins Deity was definitely not as simple as he thought.
Progenitor Chen looked at Acheron Sea. "Wang Miaomiao, the Wang family's ancestor. Logically speaking, her strength shouldn't be comparable to the Ancient Gods or the Zombie God, but she always manages to escape at the most critical moment. I'm guessing that Xiaoyu betrayed the Fifth Mainland because she was controlled by this woman. If Xiaoyu joined the Everlasting Tribe on purpose, then this woman might be her goal."
"Is it worth it?"
Lu Yin frowned. Betraying the Fifth Mainland in order to investigate the Forgotten Ruins Deity had caused the Fifth Mainland to go to war with the Sixth Mainland. The Nine Mountains and Eight Seas had collapsed, and the Astral Tree Realm had split apart. No matter how he looked at it, it was not worth it.
Progenitor Chen shook his head. "I don't know, but Xiaoyu is definitely not a traitor. I believe in her, and she's very kind. As for the Forgotten Ruins Deity, even I couldn't kill her at my peak. I could only leave an image on her face to make it easier to find her.
Lu Yin looked at the sky outside. The Forgotten Ruins Deity could also be injured, and it looked like she might die. However, after so many battles, she had not only did she not die, she even managed to escape. This was the case even in the universe's most elite battlefield. What did she have?
With the Wang family's strength?
Impossible, there had to be another reason.
If Wang Xiaoyu had really betrayed the humans because of the Forgotten Ruins Deity, then she might have already known the reason and felt that it was worth it.
Was it worth the Fifth and Sixth Mainlands going to war with each other?
Given Lu Yin's current situation, the Fifth and Sixth Mainlands were very important, not to mention Wang Xiaoyu, who had just betrayed the humans and might not even be a Half-Ancestor.
"Dao Master Lu, how is Xiaoyu?" Progenitor Chen asked. He had never asked this question before.
Lu Yin replied, "She's gone missing."
Progenitor Chen was puzzled.
Lu Yin replied, "She's not on the bone vessel, including the Forgotten Ruins Deity."
Progenitor Chen's expression sank. "I'll leave Burial Garden to you."
"You're going to find the Forgotten Ruins Deity and Wang Xiaoyu?" Lu Yin looked at Progenitor Chen.
Progenitor Chen nodded. "I have to keep my promise. I'm sorry." He then turned to leave.
Lu Yin hurriedly stopped him. "There's something I need to tell you, Senior. Your clone has been taken over by someone else."
Progenitor Chen's gaze swept across the void and landed on Ye Ao, who was standing on Limitless. "It's that person. I saw him. He used the Heaven and Earth Furnace."
"What do you think, Senior?"
"Let him be. That clone died a long time ago. It's not bad to be able to do something for humanity."
Lu Yin nodded, as this was within his expectations. "Also, Senior's giant clone's corpse is with me. I obtained it from the Corpse God's Sixth Disaster Domain."
Progenitor Chen was helpless. "It's troublesome to have too many clones. There are corpses everywhere. Help me burn them and throw them into the flames below Primeval City. If we can't return after tracking the Forgotten Ruins Deity, then this can be considered a farewell."
"Senior, you're not confident?" Lu Yin stared at Progenitor Chen.
Patriarch Chen could not help but laugh. "I will always have confidence in my own combat strength, but I understand Little Yu. For her to betray me like this, the reason behind it might be much greater than I imagined. In short, Sect Master Lu, keep in touch at all times."
Lu Yin nodded and watched Progenitor Chen leave.
After Progenitor Chen left, Lu Yin took out Progenitor Chen's giant clone's corpse and threw it into the flames.
The flames burned and emitted a resplendent light that disappeared in an instant, illuminating many people's faces.
Lu Yin's heart sank. He was well aware of Progenitor Chen's strength. If even Progenitor Chen was not confident, then what secrets did the Forgotten Ruins Deity have?
At this point, there shouldn't be any secrets from him in this universe other than fate.
Lu Yin was a little irritated. He scanned Burial Garden and fixed his gaze on a certain spot. He took a step forward and disappeared.
When he reappeared, he was already at the Rune Technology Ruins.
Here, he had once turned into a statue and broken through to the Rune Lines Realm. Here, he had also picked up Bi Rong's corpse.
During the battle at Primeval City, the Rune Progenitor's remaining strength had walked out, but it had ultimately been completely exhausted.
The moment his remaining strength disappeared, it meant that the Rune Progenitor had completely disappeared from the universe and would never appear again.
Lu Yin looked at the Rune Progenitor's statue and bowed deeply.
Just like Progenitor Chen, the Rune Progenitor had helped him greatly on his path of cultivation.
In the distance, a figure was looking at the Rune Technology Ruins.
Lu Yin turned around and looked at that figure.
The figure hurriedly bowed to Lu Yin with a respectful yet fearful expression.
He was Mister Guansheng, a cultivator from the Sixth Mainland. He had once entered Burial Garden, but because he had coveted Lu Yin's blood-red bell, he had been trapped here by rune lines and turned into a statue. He had only been released when the Rune Progenitor's remaining strength had walked out.
This person could be considered unlucky.
They had once been enemies, but now, this person was just a subordinate of the Above Heaven Sect and a cultivator from the Sixth Mainland.
Even further away, in a city under the Yellow Springs Sea, the Chief Mountain Protector stared at Lu Yin in a daze. When he saw Lu Yin look over, he smiled awkwardly.
The person he had once wanted to protect had now become the most powerful person, so powerful that he could not understand it.
Lu Yin looked at his old friends, and his gaze landed on a giant beast with an ape's body and an eagle's head. This beast was carrying a palace on its back as it walked.
The first time he had come to Burial Garden, Lu Yin had secretly followed behind this beast to pick up some scraps. He had indeed picked up some items, including a blood-stained piece of clothing that had belonged to the Grim Reaper.
When he thought of the Grim Reaper, Lu Yin took a step forward and reappeared on the beast's back.
The beast did not sense anything and continued walking with the palace on its back.
Lu Yin entered the palace, which was pitch-black and filled with skeletons. As he walked in, a gust of wind blew past and turned the skeletons into dust.
His domain swept out, and Lu Yin raised a hand, causing Goulian fragments to fly over. These fragments had all belonged to the Grim Reaper, and they had all fallen into the palace.
Lu Yin also took out the fragments that he had, and when they were combined, they were not too far away.
He did not know who this palace belonged to, but it was definitely not the Grim Reaper.
The giant beast below was not weak, and this was only after it had turned into a wandering corpse. When it had been alive, it should have been at the level of a Half-Progenitor or even a Progenitor. For this beast to be able to carry this palace around for countless years meant that the palace's owner was definitely not weak.
Perhaps it was one of the wandering corpses in Burial Garden that had died in the battle at Primeval City.
