Lu Yin agreed. Regardless of cultivation, anyone who schemed against others in the dark would have an advantage. As for success or failure, that was another matter altogether.
Since embarking on the path of cultivation, Lu Yin had experienced many battles in various forms. He had strange innate gifts, mysterious techniques, and so on. The battle between Destiny and Maiden had refreshed his understanding.
The two had not fought, but had used time and the future as a scheme to start a duel. If they had not mentioned it, no one would have known.
Who would have thought that Destiny, one of the Six Paths of the Three Realms, was as famous as Du Ku Jie? The Primogenitor's powerhouse, Maiden, had always used time as a scheme to fight.
"Can we really start over?" Lu Yin took a sip of tea. He seemed to be asking Mister Mu, but also asking himself.
Mister Mu looked at him. "What if we can?"
Lu Yin looked at Mister Mu. "Master, I'm no longer the ignorant kid from before. Fixing the mirage is the real purpose, right?"
Mister Mu smiled. "That's why I helped Tai Chu. Tai Chu did not know."
"Then how did you know?
How much do you know about Destiny? "
"Destiny did not tell me."
"Then how did you do it?"
Mister Mu looked down at the tea in a daze. "I once had my own starry sky."
Lu Yin's eyes widened, and he nodded. "I understand."
Fixing the mirage had a different meaning to the Primogenitor and Mister Mu. The Primogenitor was like Mister Mu in his own starry sky. Mister Mu had experienced it once, so he would try his best to control all variables.
If they could really start over, Lu Yin would also understand why the Guardians had tried to kill the Primogenitor at all costs. The Primogenitor still did not know the real reason.
However, the Primogenitor was much luckier than Mister Mu, because he did not need to know.
"Maiden has her own purpose in spreading Du Ku Jie."
Lu Yin opened his mouth, but Mister Mu stopped him. "Maiden's purpose has nothing to do with you or me. You can now decide what is the beginning and what is the end."
Destiny had schemed against Maiden, but it did not know when it would begin and when it would end. As for the future of humanity, it had started with She Sheng's cup of tea and ended with the cup of tea. Now, Lu Yin needed to decide when the future of humanity would begin and when it would end.
On the surface, it seemed like the Eternals had been defeated, and the humans had ushered in an unprecedented period of prosperity. However, only Lu Yin and the others knew that this prosperity was accompanied by an extreme crisis.
Once upon a time, the Heaven in Heaven's Path had gone from prosperity to decline. Now, the Heaven in Heaven's Path would inevitably face the same path.
Lu Yin muttered to himself for a moment before looking up. "Kill, Mister Wei."
"One of the hardships of not having a daughter?"
"I once gave Old Ancestor Tianyi a paper cut. When my Lu Family was exiled, it held him back."
"Alright, let's start with this. The end point is her." Mister Mu looked into the distance, in the direction of Zhao Ran.
Was his fiancée an enemy of humanity?
Lu Yin did not have an accurate answer. She wanted to break free from the mirage domain and leave the River of Time to step into the Immortal Realm. She had calculated fate and stared at both humans and herself. Lu Yin could only treat her as an enemy.
To step into the Eternal Life Realm, rebooting the universe was the simplest and most direct way.
Lu Yin was certain that Maiden would definitely help Eternity restart the universe if she had the chance. As for why she hadn't done so yet, she definitely had her own reasons.
What Lu Yin needed to do was weaken her as much as possible.
His strength was actually not that great. Since Mister Wei, Zhao Ran, and the others were hardships, eliminating these hardships would only prolong the time that Maiden needed to transcend her hardships. It would not truly weaken her.
What Lu Yin was most curious about was what kind of future fate had foreseen for it to give up on attacking Maiden and give him another chance.
If he really chose to start over, her sneak attack would have failed.
Everything she had sacrificed would have been for naught.
Even though fate had given him a chance to start over, Lu Yin's heart felt even heavier.
Finding Mister Wei was not easy, just like how the Ancestor had searched for the only True God.
All Lu Yin could do now was wait. He had seen the truth of this universe, but he could not chase after it. He could only wait.
No, there was one thing he could do, and he should do it.
The Fifth Pagoda was located in the Cosmic Sea, a place that countless people in the Primordial Space yearned for.
It was here that Lu Yin had ordered the construction of the Fifth Pagoda, where he could pass down techniques and suppress the Sea Eye. Later on, the Eternals had invaded, and the Fifth Pagoda's location had changed again and again. It had eventually moved from the Cosmic Sea to the Above Heaven Sect. Now that the Above Heaven Sect had stabilized, the Fifth Pagoda had returned to the Cosmic Sea.
There were too many inheritances here. Most of them had originally belonged to Lu Yin, but as time passed, countless people from the Fifth Mainland, Sixth Mainland, Astral Tree Society, and even the Six-Direction Society had entered the Fifth Pagoda to obtain inheritances.
Even Lu Yin did not know how many inheritances there were in the Fifth Pagoda. There were simply too many.
Many people fought for opportunities in the Fifth Pagoda all year round, and every person who obtained an inheritance from the Fifth Pagoda would have to bow to Lu Yin as a half-master. Lu Yin's reputation in the Fifth Mainland was great, and he had climbed up step by step from an ordinary cultivator. Aside from leading wars and helping the humans fight against the Eternals, the Fifth Pagoda had also played a huge role.
To be more precise, the Fifth Pagoda had helped Lu Yin obtain many half-masters. Even if these people did not accept Lu Yin, as long as they obtained an inheritance from the Fifth Pagoda, they would have to bow to Lu Yin as a half-master.
The phrase "disciples all over the world" perfectly described Lu Yin.
This was an enormous reputation, and if not for Lu Yin, no one else would have been able to obtain it.
Lu Yin arrived outside the Fifth Pagoda in the Cosmic Sea and watched as people entered and exited the Fifth Pagoda intermittently. On the surface, the experts guarding the Fifth Pagoda were still Drunkard, Liu Yefei, Brute Force, and the others. However, there were also Progenitors secretly guarding the Fifth Pagoda. Otherwise, anyone who took away the Fifth Pagoda would be equivalent to taking away countless inheritances.
Each era had its own symbol.
In ancient times, the Above Heaven Sect had been a burial ground that represented the most brilliant human civilization. Later on, continents had been destroyed one after another. In the era of the Daosource Sect, there had been Limitless, which had been the Fifth Mainland's inheritance. It had allowed one to roam the Limitless Realm and even crash into bone boats. The current era of the Above Heaven Sect was the Fifth Pagoda.
Lu Yin's gaze landed on the Fifth Pagoda's Inheritance List.
The Inheritance List was a list that was unique to the Fifth Pagoda. Those who entered the list were the individuals who had made the greatest contributions to the Fifth Pagoda, and this did not include sects or family powers.
Anyone who entered the Inheritance List would leave their name in history.
Countless wandering cultivators and individual experts would choose to send their inheritances to the Fifth Pagoda if they could not find a successor or if they did not have a descendant to continue their bloodline. If they could enter the Inheritance List, their names would be passed down for countless years, and someone would definitely obtain their inheritance in the future.
At this moment, there were many names on the Inheritance List, and there was no limit to the number of names.
Anyone who had contributed to the Fifth Pagoda would be remembered.
Of course, ordinary techniques and battle techniques were not included. Otherwise, anyone could casually leave behind something and leave their name in history.
Currently, there were only forty-nine names on the Inheritance Board, representing forty-nine legacies of sufficient weight, and the one ranked first was … Wu Tian.
Lu Yin was not surprised to see that Wu Tian was ranked first. Wu Tian had enlightened the masses during the era of the Above Heaven Sect, and now, he had placed the Wu Stele in the Fifth Pagoda's ninth floor. His contributions to the Fifth Pagoda were naturally the highest.
When the Liu family had been destroyed by the Four Way Scales, the sword stele had been lost and stolen by Lu Yin. After Wu Tian had returned, Lu Yin had returned it to him and left with the stele. Lu Yin had not asked any questions, but he had later learned that Wu Tian had brought the stele to the Fifth Pagoda.
In the Three Realms and Six Daos, Wu Tian's strength was not at the peak, but his contributions to the human race were unparalleled.
In second place was Big Sis, who had left behind an evil scripture. Of course, this evil scripture had been cultivated again, and it did not have the ability to control others.
Big Sis had not left behind the title of Netherworld Progenitor, but rather Lei Qingqing.
Lei Qingqing was the Netherworld Progenitor of this era, and she had Leon's Armada, her family, and Lu Yin behind her.
In third place was Leng Qing, who had left behind her comprehension of the Dao of the Blade.
In fourth place was a stranger that Lu Yin did not recognize. He had left behind a secret technique that was very valuable and could be placed on the seventh floor alongside the Yu Secret Art.
Unfortunately, this secret technique was useless to Lu Yin.
After that, there were more familiar faces, and most of them were people that Lu Yin knew. After all, those who could place their inheritances on the Inheritance List were not simple. Of course, there were also some strangers.
The inheritances within the fifth pagoda were already very exaggerated.
Lu Yin also knew that, aside from the inheritances on the Inheritance List, there were also some inheritances that did not have names, such as the secret technique Phoenix Splitting Tail.
This was a secret technique that First Jian had used, and it had come from a Grand Empyrean.
This secret technique had been created by a Grand Empyrean, but Lu Yin did not ask who had left it in the fifth pagoda.
Countless people's blood and sweat had been poured into the fifth pagoda, and it blossomed with the radiance of humanity's inheritances. Lu Yin had come here to let this radiance illuminate the entire universe.
The Textless Heavenly Book blossomed with light and scattered into the Primordial Space. Everyone looked in its direction.
Lu Yin stood under the Textless Heavenly Book with the fifth pagoda in front of him.
He raised a hand and engraved a name into the fifth pagoda: Tai Hong.
"Grand Empyrean Tai Hong died in the Primeval City battlefield. Today, I engrave his name so that the younger generation will never forget it."
As the name "Tai Hong" entered the fifth pagoda, a phantom also entered the Textless Heavenly Book. In the entire Primordial Space, the Hexagon Society that was connected to the Primordial Space, and the parallel spacetime outside, countless people saw this scene and slowly bowed towards the Textless Heavenly Book.
In the Reincarnation Spacetime, Alpha Primordium, Venerable Lotus, and the others' eyes turned red.
The Grand Empyrean had died in Primeval City, and the Reincarnation Spacetime had weakened. They had thought that Lu Yin's Above the Heavens would take advantage of the situation to connect the Reincarnation Spacetime. Because of the Grand Empyrean's relationship with the Lu family, the cultivators of the Reincarnation Spacetime would not have a good life.
However, the Grand Empyrean was the first hero to be engraved in the fifth pagoda.
Lu Yin was worthy of being the ruler of humanity.
He did not deny the Grand Empyrean.
In Primeval City, Mister Mu, Alpha Primordium, and the others watched this scene with complicated expressions. Tai Hong had left early.
