There was no need to continue fighting, as Lu Yin had been holding back all this time.
At this moment, it wanted to know who this person was and what had happened to this era.
This person was clearly very young, but he was able to suppress it in every way, suppressing it to the point that it vomited blood. He did not stop it from reviving. He did not care about it at all.
Those who had been unlocked were all stunned. How could this be?
Heaven Mending Imperial Advisor sighed. Sure enough, this was the case. In this era, none of the six paths of the three realms could control the universe. He did not know if the Desolate God's emergence was a good thing or a bad thing.
The Shifter Emperor felt bitter. The astral beasts would not be able to escape the fate of being suppressed by humans. The same was true for the Aragami.
"Senior, have you had enough?" Lu Yin asked as he casually tossed the Avici Dagger-Axe to the Desolate God.
The Desolate God took it and gripped the Avici Dagger-Axe tightly, "Come out."
Wu Tian, Lu Yuan, Hongyan Mavis, and Sapphire Zhiluo walked out.
"Long time no see, Big Yellow," Lu Yuan said.
The Aragami glanced at the few of them. Her gaze was complicated. There was hatred, nostalgia, and an indescribable emotion in her eyes. "My resurrection … Were you guys the mastermind?"
Lu Yuan grinned proudly. "Let me formally introduce him. His name is Lu Yin, a descendant of the Lu family. He is also the current sect master of the Above Heaven Sect and the master of the Tianyuan Universe."
…
Nothing was more shocking than what the Aragami had just heard.
The Sect above the Heavens had been destroyed, Lu Yin's master had suppressed the Echelon's String, the great battle at Immemorial City, the Daosource Sect's Nine Mountains and Eight Seas, the Fifth Mainland, the Sect above the Heavens had been reestablished, the Six Directions Society, the spiritualized universe, and so on and so forth. Even the Desolate God needed a long time to sort through all of this information.
It had been out of touch with the world for far too long, and it had been attacked by Lu Yin as soon as it appeared. Even now, it still hadn't recovered from its shock.
It also understood why the Yao Emperor had knelt before Lu Yin and why Bu Tian had hesitated to speak.
He really shouldn't have revived.
"Big Yellow, it's good that you've revived now. The war between the Tian Yuan universe and the spiritualized universe is raging like a raging fire. People are dying constantly, and we're lacking in experts," said Lu Yuan.
The Desolate God sneered, "What does that have to do with me?"
"Just listen to how much you hate humans." Lu Yuan rolled his eyes.
The Desolate God gritted her teeth. "If it weren't for you, the Giant Astral Beast wouldn't have been enslaved like that."
"Every era is marked by that era. That kind of thing is bound to happen in that era. Before Master established the Sect above the Heavens, how many beasts had slaughtered humans?"
"It was Master who said that we should be treated as equals, but the result was like that. If it wasn't for Master's promise, Above Heaven Sect wouldn't have been established so easily."
"You also have complaints about Master?"
"I hate everyone."
"So you allowed the Fourth Mainland to be destroyed?"
The Desolate God raised his head and glared at them. "That's right. I didn't do anything when the Fourth Mainland was destroyed."
That was what they had guessed. However, the Aragami actually admitted it. It was still hard for everyone to accept it.
Hongyan Mavis stared at the Aragami. "Between the humans and the Eternals, you chose the Eternals?"
The Aragami looked at her. "Shouldn't I?
Humans only think about slaughtering and enslaving astral beasts, but the Eternals don't. They come from you humans. "
"The true goal of eternity is to restart the Tian Yuan Universe and step into eternal life," said Jia Lan Zhiluo.
The Desolate God's eyes trembled, and he fell silent.
It did not know about this matter. To be exact, no one in that era knew about this matter, because the Tian Yuan Universe was far from being able to be rebooted in that era.
Back then, the Above Heaven Sect didn't even know that the Eternals would attack the humans. No one expected the Primogenitor to be ambushed or the Guardian Envoys hiding in the dark.
This was the main reason why the Above Heaven Sect was defeated.
The Eternals were thinking too far ahead.
Humans, on the other hand, were immersed in the glory and excitement of thousands of races.
This was the so-called decline after the peak of prosperity.
"Big Yellow, if you knew that the Eternals wanted to restart the Tian Yuan Universe, would you still let the Fourth Mainland be destroyed?" Wu Tian asked.
Everyone looked at the Desolate God.
The Desolate God looked up with a solemn expression and glanced at everyone. He then sneered, "Nonsense. If the universe was rebooted, we would all die. How could I let it happen?"
"At least you have a conscience," said Hongyan Mavis.
The Desolate God snorted. "I hope that the humans will perish, not everyone will die together."
"One of the reasons why you hate humans so much is because Chu Heizi slaughtered the astral beasts, right?" Wu Tian suddenly said.
The Desolate God's eyes widened, and they were filled with coldness. "Where is Chu Heizi?"
"Dead." Lu Yuan sighed.
The Desolate God was shocked. "You are all alive, but Chu Heizi is dead?"
"What do you mean?
In your eyes, we don't deserve to live? "Jia Lan Zhiluo was unhappy.
The Desolate God said, "Chu Heizi is stronger than anyone, and he can break through to the Primordial Realm at any time. Once he breaks through, I don't think even Master can do anything to him. How did he die?"
Lu Yin continued, "He died for me."
The Desolate God only noticed Lu Yin now. "Died for you?
You were already here at that time? "
Lu Yin did not know how to explain.
"Let's not talk about the past. You know the current situation. No matter what side you stand on, you have to join this war between the universes," Lu Yuan said.
The Desolate God sneered. "Not necessarily. I can join the spiritualized universe."
Jia Lan Zhiluo raised an eyebrow. "What did you say?"
The Desolate God glanced at everyone. "Haven't I made it clear enough?"
"You want to betray the Tian Yuan Universe?"
"The Tian Yuan Universe already belongs to you humans. So what if you defeat the spiritualized universe?
Won't it still be enslaved by you humans? "
"Times have changed. The Above Heaven Sect will not enslave the astral beasts."
Lu Yin said, "I promise that I will not let anyone enslave the astral beasts."
The Desolate God was furious, and he stared at Lu Yin with bloodshot eyes. "You promise?
How can you promise that?
What's the use of your promise?
Didn't Master promise it back then? "
"No matter how times have changed, the greed of humans will never disappear. If Master can't stop it, how can you stop it?"
Lu Yin, Wu Tian, Lu Yuan, and the rest were speechless.
In that era, the Above Heaven Sect was at its peak. The Primogenitor's prestige was greater than the heavens, but it still could not stop humans from enslaving the astral beasts. The stronger the Primogenitor, the stronger the humans, and the more the astral beasts would be enslaved.
In the current era, humans had surpassed the Above Heaven Sect. Not only did they have the Three Realms and Six Paths, but they also had the Three Suns and Six Lords, the Eight Paths, and many Progenitor powerhouses. If they defeated the spiritualized universe, would they really not enslave the astral beasts?
Once Lu Yin surpassed the Infinity Powerhouses and surpassed the Primogenitor, humans would worship him. What would they think of non-human lifeforms?
The most obvious point was that none of the Three Suns and Six Lords were astral beasts. This was even more thorough than the Three Realms and Six Paths.
Lu Yin did not lie to the Desolate God, but there were some things that he could not change.
The Desolate God was one of the Three Realms and Six Paths. In that era, he could protect the Fourth Mainland and suppress the humans. What about now?
Who could do it?
The Shifter Emperor?
The Power Beast?
Xu Wang?
Jiao?
Ancestral Mang?
Shen Ying?
No one could do it. No one was the Desolate God.
Lu Yin wanted to eliminate the word "enslave" from the bottom of his heart. However, even if his cultivation level was high, he could not stop it.
In some dark corners, under his high and mighty gaze, the Desolate God could not stop.
Darkness was still growing in the corners that were not allowed to exist. This was very similar to the former Above the Heavens.
If the Primogenitor did not notice it, Lu Yin might not be able to either.
The Tian Yuan Universe was now united to fight against the spiritualized universe. All the conflicts had been shifted to external wars. It was not that the darkness was completely eliminated. Instead, everyone's attention was focused on fighting against the spiritualized universe.
The Desolate God had just been reborn and had not experienced the war against the spiritualized universe. Its focus was on internal affairs.
It focused on the promise that even the Primogenitor could not fulfill.
"Big Yellow, I'm sorry." There was a sigh and an apology. It was the Primogenitor's voice.
The Desolate God's body trembled. It slowly turned its head and looked in a certain direction.
There, the Primogenitor walked over and looked at the Desolate God with a complicated and apologetic gaze.
The Desolate God looked at the Primogenitor blankly. Its voice was dry. "Master."
The Primogenitor sighed. "I'm sorry, Big Yellow."
Lu Yin and the rest fell silent. The Primogenitor was apologizing. This was the creator of the source of cultivation and the strongest person since the birth of the Tian Yuan Universe. He was apologizing to the Desolate God and the astral beasts.
In the past, the astral beasts had also slaughtered humans. That was the nature of their species. Ever since the Primogenitor had ascended, he had taken in the Desolate God as a disciple to keep the astral beasts in check. This had led to the rise of humans in that era.
Although it was called taking in a disciple, it was actually a transaction. However, the relationship between the Primogenitor and the Desolate God was real.
The Desolate God's respect for the Primogenitor and its love for its fellow disciples in the Three Realms and Six Daos were also real.
However, as the Above Heaven Sect flourished, humans' attitude towards the astral beasts changed. It could be called revenge, as the astral beasts had once committed a blood debt to humans. It could also be called greed, but who could refuse such a powerful mount?
In particular, the Primogenitor had the Ancestral Mang wrapped around his waist and a divine eagle on his shoulder. This image was too deeply etched in people's hearts, and countless people imitated it. Perhaps this was the reason why the Primogenitor had apologized.
Regardless of the reason, the astral beasts had been enslaved.
Without experiencing that era, it was impossible to understand the calamity that beasts had suffered.
Even if the Desolate God had allowed the destruction of the Fourth Mainland, it had not done anything wrong. It was not a human, and it had its own standpoint.
It had only allowed the destruction of a place where the astral beasts would be enslaved by humans. That was all.
"Master, do you know how many astral beasts were enslaved in that era?" The Desolate God's voice was low and hoarse.
It pointed at the astral beasts that had been unlocked and transformed into human form. "They were all enslaved."
"In that era, the astral beasts that were unwilling to be enslaved by humans died. Whether it was in the Primordial Space or other parallel dimensions, at least one-third of them died. Their blood was enough to dye the sky red."
"How many astral beasts were enslaved?
Master, do you know? "
"You promised that when you took me in as your disciple, you hoped that the astral beasts and humans could live in peace. You hoped that the astral beasts would stop killing humans everywhere. We did it. What about you?"
"You were high above and could not see the greed of humans, but we were suffering from it."
The Primogenitor closed his eyes.
The Desolate God sneered. "You guarded the Immemorial City and suppressed the strings. How much of it was for the astral beasts?"
"At that time, you were only thinking about humans."
"Our standpoints were different. You were a human, so you thought about the survival of humans. I was a astral beast, so I only thought about the survival of the astral beasts."
The Primogenitor opened his eyes and looked at the Desolate God. "I was high above and could not see the greed of humans. Then, to the astral beasts, were you not high above?
When did you see all of them? "
The Desolate God's gaze shook.
"When did you see the nature of some astral beasts?" The Primogenitor asked.
