Lu Yin looked deeply at Yu Sang Tian. "Let's see who can get close."
"Let's rely on our own abilities, but I advise you not to get your hopes up. I don't know if you can become a Superior Deity, but no one has ever become a Inferior Deity."
"Then why are you still trying?"
"If I succeed, Ninefirmaments Universe won't be able to stop me. I'll be the second Eternal Realm cultivator after Paramount, and the spiritualized universe will have the right to speak. If I fail …" Yu Sang Tian calmly looked into the distance. "It doesn't matter. Ninefirmaments Universe won't tolerate it anyway."
"Mo Shang."
The ancestor suddenly asked loudly, "If you were given another chance, would you slaughter the Above Heaven Sect?
Slaughter Immemorial City? "
Yu Sang Tian looked back at the ancestor. "I envy you."
The ancestor frowned and looked at Yu Sang Tian in confusion.
Yu Sang Tian said indifferently, "You can be a human ancestor and protect your kindness, even if it's willful."
"He wouldn't ask such a childish question."
"Since you want an answer, I'll give it to you."
Yu Sang Tian's gaze was cold. "I will."
The ancestor sighed and looked at Lu Yin silently.
Yu Sang Tian was right. Lu Yin wouldn't ask such a question because there was only one answer. There wouldn't be a second answer.
The ancestor had suppressed Immemorial City's String Sequence for the people of the Tian Yuan Universe. He had dedicated his entire life and was worthy of respect.
Yu Sang Tian had also planned for the spiritualized universe, and he didn't hesitate to let Lu Yin go. Even if Lu Yin's reputation was damaged, the spiritualized universe still respected him.
But the biggest difference between him and the ancestor was this.
The ancestor focused on defense, while Yu Sang Tian focused on offense.
The ancestor wouldn't harm other universes just to protect the Tian Yuan Universe.
Yu Sang Tian was different. If given a chance, he would destroy all other universes just to preserve the spiritualized universe. He was full of aggression.
Lu Yin was also such a person.
Yu Sang Tian had massacred the Tian Yuan Universe and wanted to restart it. Lu Yin had come with the intention of restarting the spiritualized universe. An eye for an eye. This was Lu Yin's idea, and it was also Yu Sang Tian's idea. They were essentially the same type of people, and they were different from the ancestor.
Because of Lu Yin, the ancestor was still the same. Without Lu Yin, would the ancestor still be the same?
The spiritualized universe now had one less Lu Yin.
The Primogenitor understood all of this, but he still asked. This was what Yu Sang Tian meant when he said he was willful. The answer to his question was an explanation for his kindness.
The primogenitor had a hard time suppressing the string of the Echelon for countless years.
However, he felt even more heartache for Lu Yin, as Lu Yin was burdened with responsibilities and pressure that should not have happened at his age.
In the consciousness universe, the Sikong Mirror extended into the heavens, but it still couldn't find Lu Yin.
Yue Ya once again cooperated with Vast Misty Waves and the others to execute the Nine Feet Anti-Heaven Technique, which encompassed the entire starry sky. However, they still could not find anything.
The Old Chief's consciousness spread out, but it was also ineffective.
"Could it be that he's hiding in a parallel universe?" Vast Mist Waves asked.
Yue Ya didn't reply. He was also thinking about this problem. If he hadn't hidden in a parallel space, it was impossible for him to not find him.
But, do they dare?
Wasn't he afraid that he would kill his way into the Tian Yuan Universe?
Killing his way to the Tian Yuan Cosmos was just a pretense, as he had only used it to threaten Lu Yin. If it was that easy, someone else would have tried to do so a long time ago.
Since ancient times, there had been countless powerhouses who had reached the peak of Bitter Adversity in the Nine Firmaments Universe. Even in their dreams, they had hoped to restart a universe and attempt to attain eternal life. However, the Tian Yuan Cosmos had never been touched.
"Why don't we go to the Tian Yuan Cosmos?" the Old Chief suggested. They had already planned to leave the consciousness universe.
Vast Mist Waves glanced at them. "We can't go."
The Old Chief did not understand.
Vast Mist Waves did not say anything else. "Continue searching. We'll definitely find him."
They were even more anxious than Yue Ya, as Yue Ya needed to transform and become a God of Defense. Otherwise, the Nine Feet Garden would be finished.
The Nine Feet Garden placed all of their hopes on Yue Ya.
…
In the Heavenly Imperial Court, the pressure from the memories grew stronger, and Lu Yin felt increasingly powerless. That string of memories also grew tighter, but it had not reached its limit yet.
If Yu Sang Tian could leave, then so could Lu Yin.
Over the years, the die's six pips had allowed him to withstand the memories many times. That string of memories was more tenacious than anyone else's.
However, that feeling of powerlessness and weakness made him want to fall to the ground at every moment.
Gui Shaoqing's fate kept appearing in front of him. Wu Yi had become like an idiot, and it was chilling.
Suddenly, the scene in front of him rapidly retreated. Lu Yin stopped and even took a step back.
This step attracted the attention of the Progenitor and Yu Sang Tian.
He had been shaken by the memories.
The Progenitor stood up and stared at Yu Sang Tian. The Sky Armament circled behind him to prevent Yu Sang Tian from attacking, but it was useless. The closer the power was to the palace, the more it would disappear. Only someone in the same position could attack. The closer the two were to each other, the clearer the attack would be. The only thing the Progenitor could do was shout out to warn Lu Yin.
Yu Sang Tian did not attack. He looked deeply at Lu Yin before looking away and continuing forward.
Lu Yin saw the universe rewind, one universe after another. He was shocked, and his eyes narrowed. Was this a parallel universe or a parallel universe?
It couldn't be that fast. How could one universe travel to another so quickly?
The scene disappeared, and Lu Yin could not help but take a few steps back. He almost fell as he panted.
"Zhu Zi, are you alright?"
Lu Yin's eyes flickered, and he waved a hand before looking at Yu Sang Tian.
Yu Sang Tian did not respond and continued forward, but his speed was much slower than before.
Lu Yin looked away and exhaled deeply. He looked up at the palace.
What was that scene?
Memories?
He could not tell.
The rewind was too fast, and it could not be a universe. Impossible.
He paused for a moment before continuing forward.
After some time, Lu Yin slowed down as well. He did not look at Yu Sang Tian, and Yu Sang Tian did not look at him either, but the two continued forward.
They had clearly walked for a long time, and each step was a long one, but from the Progenitor's point of view, they were still not close to the palace. Even if they kept moving forward, there was still a short distance between them and the palace.
A normal person would have walked this path long ago, but in this place, it was like a natural moat.
Yu Sang Tian stopped, his expression calm, but beads of sweat dripped down his forehead.
The Progenitor looked at him. This time, it should be real. Yu Sang Tian had been shaken by the memories.
Would Lu Yin attack?
Lu Yin did not even look at Yu Sang Tian, so he naturally would not attack.
The Progenitor could warn Lu Yin, but he did not.
The next moment, Lu Yin stopped as well.
The Progenitor was astonished. The closer they got to the palace, the more frequent the memory shakes?
This time, Lu Yin saw three swords traverse the void and slash at a giant beast claw.
The beast claw was indescribable, and it covered the sky and the stars. It was as if it was about to crush the universe.
This was just a beast claw, and from it, there was an unimaginable astral beast. Lu Yin could not even begin to imagine how big that beast was.
He had once seen Progenitor Chen move the stars in his palm, and at that time, he had thought that the Progenitor was very big.
After that, he had seen the Progenitor of Giants and other enormous creatures. He had never thought that he would one day see a creature that could encompass an entire universe.
How did he know that the beast claw could encompass an entire universe?
Had he ever seen that universe before?
No, but he was certain that the universe was very big to him, and he could not see it all at once.
Who did this sudden memory or knowledge belong to?
Who did these three swords belong to?
Lu Yin did not have much time to think as the three swords pierced through the beast claw, and he vaguely heard a pained howl.
The beast claw was torn apart, and the three swords slashed outside the universe. The sky collapsed, and the earth caved in. The universe distorted and shattered.
Lu Yin's inexplicable rage drowned out his rationality. Who was this rage coming from?
Right, those three swords were the Azure Sword, Middle Azure Sword, and Lower Azure Sword.
He knew that it was called the Triple Azure Sword Intent.
He should have been able to do it.
The image disappeared, and Lu Yin stood there in a daze. No, he still did not know how to use the Azure Sword, but he should have been able to.
The memories did not belong to the universe, but rather to a creature that could use the Triple Azure Sword Intent.
The memories that Yi Tianque had seen had all come from that creature. That creature had wandered the Core of Space and seen the stars of many universes. It had stopped the universe from rebooting, nurtured powerful creatures, and protected certain civilizations. It had also hoped to see beautiful things, but in the end, it had all been lost.
Why were the creature's memories here?
Why did it form Yi Tianque?
Lu Yin looked at the distant palace. If Yi Tianque really did belong to that creature's memories, then that palace should be the one that had left the deepest impression. Or rather, it should be the place that protected the deepest memories.
This creature had to be an Eternal Realm.
The memories that Lu Yin had seen were not ordinary. At the very least, he could not rely on the Triple Azure Sword Intent to kill an astral beast that could encompass an entire universe.
What kind of existence was that astral beast?
He continued forward, wanting to get closer to the palace and see the memories clearly. If his guess was right, then the palace might really contain the creature's memories of immortality.
Yu Sang Tian had experienced a memory shock, and he had confirmed something. His eyes burned with passion and madness as he walked towards the palace.
Time passed day by day, and only the Progenitor was calculating.
Almost a year had passed, which was a very short time for cultivators.
However, for Lu Yin and Yu Sang Tian, it should have been a very long time. They did not even have the concept of time.
During this time, Lu Yin had experienced five memory shocks, while Yu Sang Tian had experienced four.
The Progenitor had guessed wrong. The closer one got to the palace, the more frequent the memory shocks. There was no pattern to this phenomenon.
He wondered how Yue Ya and the others were doing.
In the void of the consciousness universe, Yue Ya had been impatient for a long time. Although a year was short, it was still a very long time to him. He did not know if the Ninefirmaments Universe would interfere, but he just wanted to find Lu Yin as soon as possible to complete his transformation. Where had he gone?
Was he really in a parallel universe?
Old Head and the others had searched all the known parallel universes, but they had not been able to find him. Instead, they had found the Eternal Realm.
Only then did Yue Ya realize that there was an absolute powerhouse here.
He had said that he would join forces with the Eternal, and Old Head and the others had thought that they would succeed. After all, the Eternal was Lu Yin's archenemy and Yu Sang Tian's enemy.
However, not long after, Yue Ya and the Eternal started fighting.
Old Head and the others did not know the reason.
In the end, the Eternal disappeared and Yue Ya returned.
Vast Mist and the others asked for the reason, but Yue Ya did not say anything.
