The big-faced tree was delighted to see Lu Yin. "Kid, you're here again. Where were we last time?
Right, the Battle of Jiu He. Speaking of which, the Netherworld Ancestor … "
"We talked about the Battle of Jiu He," Lu Yin interrupted.
Big Face Tree blinked. "Have I told you?
Uncle Tree, I don't remember telling you everything. "
"You did." Lu Yin was very certain.
The big-faced tree was very serious. "No."
Lu Yin raised his brows. "You did."
"No."
"You did."
"No."
He rejected it again and again as he experienced the strength of the tree's spiritual attacks. However, he was disappointed; although the tree's spiritual attacks were strong, they weren't enough to pique his interest.
This big-faced tree was like an ancient tree that had witnessed history. It had a very long lifespan, but there was nothing special about it.
He had been oversensitive. There were many ancient trees in this universe, which made him think that they were all special.
Mother trees, black mother trees, escaped trees, and saplings.
Although this big-faced tree was not special, it was still a thick history book.
Lu Yin left the farm and went to the Ice Spirit Clan. He stood outside Bing Xin and looked at her in a daze.
Lu Yin did not say a word. He looked at Bing Xin for half a month before leaving.
He could save Ming Yan, but so what if he did?
The Sole True God had not been dealt with. Fate and the spiritualized universe had not been dealt with. Ming Yan's appearance was just another concern.
Lu Yin wanted to give his family warmth and stability. This might be selfish, but Ming Yan would rather take risks and go through life and death with him. But weren't humans selfish?
The deeper the love, the more they yearned for peace.
Lu Yin met the Ancestor once again at the back mountain of the Above Heaven Sect.
"If the spiritualized universe takes care of your universe and then fights with the Tian Yuan Universe, who has a higher chance of winning?" Lu Yin asked without hesitation.
The Ancestor replied, "The spiritualized universe."
"Why?"
"Firstly, they can restart our universe and use the laws of the universe to create powerhouses. Secondly, the lifeforms of the universe also have the concept of life and death. Some of them are afraid of death and will join the spiritualized universe. It's like two universes fighting the Tian Yuan Universe, and the Tian Yuan Universe has no chance of winning. Thirdly, too many powerhouses from the Tian Yuan Universe have died in the battle with the Eternals. The remaining powerhouses of the Above Heaven Sect and Immemorial City are not enough to resist the spiritualized universe."
Lu Yin said, "If they can restart the universe, why did the spiritualized universe target the Tian Yuan Universe in the Above Heaven Sect?"
The Ancestor of the Past said, "Greed can never be satisfied. The rebooting of a consciousness universe will allow the top creatures of the spiritualized universe to step into another level, but what about the level that is only second to the top creatures?
They need to develop as well. Even if those peak creatures all reach the Primordial realm, will they be satisfied? "
"The Tian Yuan universe is like a safety net, while the consciousness universe is more like a test subject."
. "Lu Yin was curious." It's been so long. Does the universe still exist? "
The Ancestor was certain. "It exists. Even if the spiritualized universe is stronger than us and has given us a death countdown, it won't be easy to completely destroy our universe. The Eternals destroyed the Above Heaven Sect and suppressed the Six Direction Association with the First Calamity Realm. But you also rose up. There are too many possibilities in the universe.
"What truly makes us despair is the scale of the future. That is a measurement of the infinite possibilities of the future. If the future scale of the consciousness universe is five, then the future scale of the spiritualized universe is six. It is this difference that makes it impossible for the consciousness universe to be born.
Even if the universe has infinite possibilities, it can't surpass the spiritualized universe. We have long recognized this point.
"Only the Tian Yuan Universe is different. When I saw the dazzling Above Heaven Sect, I thought that the future scale of the Tian Yuan Universe would be six. But you rose up a second time and won against the odds. This made me certain that the future scale of the universe is seven. However, I'm talking about the future scale, which is a measure of the infinite possibilities in the future and not a comparison of your current strength.
"If the spiritualized universe attacks, you will definitely lose."
Lu Yin tapped his fingers on the table and pondered for a moment. "If I don't solve the internal problems, I can't solve the external problems."
"The Eternals?"
"Help me eliminate the Eternals and give me the confidence to unify the entire Tian Yuan Universe. Only then will I be able to deal with the spiritualized universe. Otherwise, the Eternals alone will drag me down."
Lu Yin then looked at the Ancestor. "At that time, even if we don't want to start a war with the spiritualized universe, an integrated Tian Yuan Universe is not something that the spiritualized universe wants to see."
"I understand this logic, but it won't be easy to eliminate the Eternals. The One True God is very strong, so strong that he has the qualifications to negotiate with the spiritualized universe." The Ancestor was helpless.
"How to deal with the One True God is our problem. Your mission is to find him," Lu Yin said.
The Ancestor frowned. "I'll do my best."
Lu Yin looked at the calm lake. Although it was clear enough to see the bottom, there were still some filth hidden in the dark corners. "The One True God, the Ancient God, the Forgotten Ruins Deity, Tianci, Bai Xianer, and Hei Wushen. I will find them all and deal with them once and for all."
He had let the Ancestor leave, but the Ancestor had come looking for him himself. If he wanted to hide, there was no need for him to come.
Now, no one could find the One True God, and Lu Yin was very anxious. He hoped to eliminate the One True God before the effects of the Six Paths of Reincarnation Realm ended. However, it was useless if he couldn't find the One True God. If he couldn't find the One True God, the gift he had given the One True God wouldn't be effective.
The Ancestor had been with the Eternals for so long, and he hoped that it would be useful.
As for the Ancient God, couldn't he reveal his location?
One fisherman, two fishermen, three fishermen … Lu Yin stared at the surface of the lake and fell into deep thought.
…
Following the defeat of the Eternals, the Above Heaven Sect naturally became a colossus that countless people in this universe looked up to.
Every day, countless people would come to the Above Heaven Sect to pay their respects, and Lu Yin's statue could be seen everywhere.
On this day, four people found Lu Yin. They were Mu Zhu, Mu Feng, Mu Xie, and Qing Ping.
At the back mountain of the Above Heaven Sect, Lu Yin looked at the four and said solemnly, "Senior brothers and sisters, this matter is very important. I'll have to trouble you."
"I'm not very good at tracing," Qing Ping said.
"I'll lead," Mu Zhu said. This was her first time in the Above Heaven Sect, but she wasn't shocked.
She had seen the Above Heaven Sect before the ancient era and had saved the ancestor. If not for Mister Mu's seniority, she would be about the same age as the Three Realms and Six Paths.
Lu Yin nodded. "Thank you, Senior Sister."
The four of them surrounded Lu Yin and simultaneously used Tracing Back to the Past.
The void around Lu Yin twisted and turned gray. Faintly, images flashed past.
Back then, Senior Brother Mu Xie used Tracing alone to find Ye Bo. It was very difficult. Now, the four of them used Tracing at the same time. Especially with Mu Zhu, they should be able to succeed.
What Lu Yin asked them to find was the Book of Destiny that had been denied.
Destiny, Maiden, and Bai Xianer were no less threatening than the One True God. The only way Lu Yin could find them was to trace back to the past and find the time that had disappeared. He would cross the river of time with a stream of light.
Like the ancient battlefield, he would search for the bone boat.
One day, two days, three days.
Time passed day by day.
No one disturbed them at the back mountain of the Above Heaven Sect.
On the ninth day, Mu Zhu and the others opened their eyes. "Found it."
Lu Yin waved his hand and a light boat appeared. The river of time surged forward. Countless people inside and outside the Above Heaven Sect were shocked.
The river of time encompassed the life of all living things. It was the vast power of time.
At this moment, a small boat crossed the river of time. Lu Yin boarded the light boat and disappeared.
The scene only lasted for a short time. After Lu Yin disappeared, Mu Zhu and the others almost collapsed.
Mu Xie smiled bitterly. "Junior Brother's light is the real power of time."
Mu Feng said solemnly, "It took us nine days to find it with the four of us. The hidden time is not simple."
"It's a pity that Master cut off the river of time and fixed the mirage domain. He can't use Tracing. Otherwise, we wouldn't have to do it," Mu Zhu said.
"I hope everything goes well," Qing Ping muttered to himself.
At the same time, Lu Yin traveled through the river of time and saw images of things that had happened in the past. Time continued to move forward and the boat bobbed up and down.
The longer one traveled through the river of time, the more likely it was to capsize. However, after experiencing it once, Lu Yin was confident.
Suddenly, an image froze and a familiar power swept past. It was Tracing the Past. Mu Zhu and the others used Tracing to help Lu Yin locate the time when the Book of Destiny had been denied. Lu Yin stared at the image and entered.
He appeared in a courtyard with images constantly moving around him. Time was moving backward.
Lu Yin looked around. Was this Yi Xian Academy?
Mister Wei's courtyard?
Lu Yin suddenly turned around. The images around him kept moving forward, and he saw a person in front of him: Mister Wei.
She stood among the flowers like a lotus flower. Even though she was disguised as a man, her otherworldly temperament could not be hidden. She was pure and flawless.
Lu Yin looked at Mister Wei, and Mister Wei looked back at him.
Time was flowing, but Mister Wei had never left. Lu Yin had ordered that no one be allowed to enter this courtyard, and Yi Xian Academy had sealed it off.
Neither of them moved and just looked at each other in the river of time.
This was a very strange scene. Lu Yin traveled through the river of time, and many years passed in the blink of an eye.
However, Mister Wei was still standing there. If someone could see her, they would see that she was standing in one place and staring in one direction. She had not moved for many years, and there was a smile in her eyes.
The image disappeared, and everything returned to normal.
Within the courtyard, birds chirped and the fragrance of flowers filled the air.
Lu Yin and Mister Wei looked at each other. "You never left?"
"I was waiting for you." Mister Wei smiled faintly.
"When Forefather Tianyi and I came to find you, you only left Papercut behind."
Mister Wei's smile grew wider. "You were the ones who couldn't find me. I've always been here and never left."
Lu Yin's gaze turned cold. "Are you Wei's daughter or Bai Xianer?
Or Destiny? "
Mister Wei smiled. "Is there a difference?"
Lu Yin nodded, "Yes, there's no difference. Are you waiting for the current me or the past me?"
"What's the difference?" Mister Wei retorted.
Lu Yin stared at her. "The current me is not someone you can wait for." He then took a step forward and released the starry sky from his heart. He reached out to grab Mister Wei.
