Lu Sizhan explained, "Many things in this world are predestined. Every time there's a great change, some incomprehensible characters will appear. You can think of them as being born in response to the current situation, or you can also think of them as the current situation occurring because of them. It's inexplicable. In any case, the appearance of this person will definitely change the situation.
Lu Siyu rolled her eyes. "Why are you being so secretive?"
"Girl, it's fine if you don't want to marry him. Father just wants you to live a normal life and live a happy life. This person is destined to be extraordinary," Lu Sizhan said before turning around and leaving.
Lu Siyu looked at the horizon, but the carriage had already disappeared.
…
Inside the carriage, Lu Yin looked out the window and saw meteors streaking across the sky. They might have been humans or other creatures, but the Mother Tree was the most spectacular backdrop.
Raindrops dripped onto his hands. Is it raining?
Lu Yin stared into the distance in a daze. Lu Yin hadn't asked about one of the requirements to become a Lesser God, but he knew that it was the most important one: not cultivating the laws of the universe.
In the three universes, the laws of the universe were the cornerstones of one's path to becoming a powerhouse. Anyone who had the opportunity to cultivate it would not miss it. This was common knowledge.
However, after arriving in Ninefirmaments Universe and speaking with Si Jiushi, Lu Yin learned that the laws of the universe could make or break a person's potential.
The laws of the universe were a shortcut to eternal life, but the path to eternal life was very bumpy.
It was like a normal person climbing a mountain. It would take five hours to climb from the foot to the top, but there was a small path that would only take an hour to reach the top. This path was similar to the main road, and it could be climbed quickly. However, the path to the top was almost vertical, and the walls were smooth. Normal people would not be able to climb up at all, and they would only be able to look at the top helplessly.
This was the price of cultivating the laws of the universe.
It allowed you to see the top of the mountain faster, but you would never be able to touch the top of the mountain. If you wanted to climb up this small path, you would have to put in much more effort than those who took the main road. It would also take a lot more time. This also depended on what the sequence rules were.
The Progenitor was feared by Yue Ya and the others because of his laws of the universe. He made the path flat, and it was very possible to climb to the top using this path.
However, most people who cultivated the Sequence Laws were unable to do so.
Many people in the Continent of the Nine Clouds, especially those who were confident in themselves, didn't practice cultivation because the path wasn't easy to walk on, even if it was fast in the beginning. It was also because it was difficult to climb to the top of the mountain, but it could prevent people from climbing on the main road. That was the next weapon.
If he couldn't even keep his life, how could he talk about immortality?
Some people didn't want to cultivate the Sequence Laws, but had no choice but to do so.
Lu Yin didn't know if he was rejoicing or not, but he was already about to cultivate the laws of the sequence. However, because the time wasn't right, he had yet to cultivate it. This meant that he would be like Luo Ning and the others, and he would be able to pick up the next weapon in the future without taking the shortcut.
The act of picking up the next weapon is called Dharma Enlightenment.
…
The Mother Tree stood between the heavens and the earth, as if it was propping up the universe. From the bottom to the top, the Blood Pagoda rotated slowly in the boundless distance. Everything in the surroundings rotated along with it, sometimes fast, sometimes slow. No one could see it, but it stood high in the sky, eternally unchanging.
"Yue Ya, you broke the rules twice. You will be permanently deprived of your Godly Defense and banished to the Fifth Night Pillar.
Outside the Blood Pagoda, Yue Ya looked miserable and pitiful. He raised his head and begged, "I don't want to Dharma Enlightenment. Lord of the Blood Pagoda, please give me another chance. Please give me another chance. I can go to the Fifth Night Pillar and fight for the Continent of the Nine Clouds. I can do anything, please don't make me Dharma Enlightenment."
"Yue Ya, immediately, Dharma Enlightenment."
Yue Ya howled in grief, but he couldn't change the Blood Pagoda's punishment. The dark golden clouds kept boiling, and suddenly, they moved away, but the Blood Pagoda appeared in the distance. The clouds changed directions, and the Blood Pagoda appeared again.
"Why? Why can't you give me a chance? I want to change my way of thinking, I want to become immortal, I want to become a Lord! You're afraid! You're afraid that I'll surpass you! You're afraid! Hahahahaha! You're afraid! Three Lords are afraid of me!
No matter how much Yue Ya howled, the Blood Pagoda was like a wall that blocked him from leaving.
Finally, the dark golden cloud stopped boiling. "Alright, I'll comprehend the law. Who said that comprehending the law can't lead to eternal life? Just you wait, I'll definitely find Lu Yin and use his consciousness to transform. I'll even become a Supreme Ruler. You can't stop me, you definitely can't."
After that, the world fell silent.
…
Some places in the Continent of the Nine Clouds were dark, while others were bright and sunny. There were also places where raindrops were connected to rainbows, and there were places where strong winds swept up the clouds. The land was vast and boundless.
They had already left the Silin Region, and with the speed of the beast carriage, it would only take five days to reach Wanxiang Valley.
The beast that pulled the carriage was completely different from the one that Si Jiu ate.
Along the way, Elder Le enthusiastically introduced the Continent of the Nine Clouds to Lu Yin. He didn't neglect Lu Yin because he came from another universe, but he didn't dare.
With this kind of strength, it didn't matter where he came from, especially since Lu Yin was from Ye Hai. He was obviously someone who knew Upanishad Upanishad. This time, he was going to help Wanxiang Valley, so he was the most distinguished guest.
"Your lady might not treat me as a guest."
Lu Yin leaned against the beast carriage and looked out the window. The scenery of the Nine Clouds Universe gave people a sense of boundless beauty. It was completely different from the three universes. It was like a fairytale intertwined with reality. It could be dreamy or cruel.
Elder Le respectfully said, "How could that be? My lady is gentle and will definitely entertain you well."
Lu Yin smiled. Gentle?
He didn't know if Ming Xiaolong was the one who scolded him in Ye Hai.
At that time, at least four of the Seven Fairies scolded him, and Lu Siyu was definitely the loudest.
"By the way, does your Wanxiang Valley have any scabs?"
Elder Le was surprised. "Scabs?"
Lu Yin didn't look at him and continued to look out the window.
"I don't know. I have to ask the Valley Master. Do you need any scabs?"
"I'm just asking."
Of course, Lu Yin needed them, but he couldn't say it out loud. For Wanxiang Valley, he was just helping them, so it wasn't too much to ask for anything. However, Ming Xiaolong knew that he was doing it for the sake of the conditions and was treated as a peeping thief. If he asked for any scabs, he might be scolded.
Some things could only be understood and didn't need to be explained.
Elder Le obviously already understood.
"Scabs, the word 'fate'. The person who receives it is fated, and the person who gives it is also fated. I'm far from the Teal Lotus Defense." Elder Le sighed.
Lu Yin's lips curled up. "I'm fated."
Elder Le was stunned. He just sighed and didn't say anything to Lu Yin. Was this person so impatient to ask for a scabs?
A few days later, the beast carriage was suddenly stopped after passing through a large area.
"Is this Wanxiang Valley's Elder Le?"
The carriage driver came from Wanxiang Valley. He looked at the people in front of him with a serious expression. "It is Elder Le. What's the matter?"
Someone stepped forward and bowed respectfully. "We're catching a thief. Please help us, Elder Le. The reward will definitely satisfy you."
The carriage driver didn't reply and waited for Elder Le's reply.
Elder Le said, "Don't bother."
The carriage driver said coldly, "Elder is tired and wants to return to Wanxiang Valley. Please step aside."
The people looked at each other, unwilling. They wanted to say something, but the carriage driver drove the carriage forward. They had no choice but to step aside.
After some distance, Lu Yin looked at his feet. "Come out."
Elder Le was puzzled. "What's wrong, Sir?"
Lu Yin pointed at his feet.
Elder Le looked over.
A hand reached out and climbed up the carriage. The carriage driver was shocked and lashed out with his whip, but it was caught by the hand. A muffled voice said, "Don't, it's not an enemy."
"Let him in."
Elder Le looked outside and saw a person with a face full of dirt climbing up from under the carriage. This person was hiding underground and coincidentally saw the carriage pass by, so he followed.
Lu Yin looked at the person with interest. Although Elder Le's cultivation wasn't high, he was still an Ancestor. This person had some ability to not be discovered. It seemed like this person's ability to see the world's situation wasn't easy.
The person who came in had a cautious expression. His movements were respectful and he kept a distance from Le Lao. He politely bowed, "Junior greets senior from Wanxiang Valley. Just now, I was chased by evil people and had no choice but to borrow the beast carriage. I hope senior can forgive me."
Elder Le looked at Lu Yin. He had let this person in because Lu Yin had discovered someone hiding under the carriage but hadn't exposed him. He had waited for this person to follow for some distance before saying that he couldn't understand Lu Yin's intentions.
The person saw Elder Le looking at Lu Yin and quickly bowed. "Junior greets Sir. Sir's temperament is refined and your cultivation must be extraordinary. Please forgive this junior's rudeness."
Lu Yin looked at the person. "Female?"
The person smiled. "It's inconvenient to walk on the ground, so I used a disguise. Please don't take offense."
"How did you do it?"
"What?"
"How did you know that our carriage would pass by your hiding place?" Lu Yin asked.
Elder Le looked at the person. Right, the world was vast and the carriage could fly or land. It all depended on how the driver drove it. This person was hiding underground. If they hadn't passed by coincidentally, they would have been discovered. However, their carriage happened to pass by and this person borrowed it. How did she do it?
The person took out a bottle from her cosmic ring. There was some powder inside. "Throughout the Nine Heavens, there are many controlled beasts, but there aren't many that can catch the eye of the big shots. The Blue Thorn Beast is one of them. This road leads to the Wanxiang Valley and the people there love to control the Blue Thorn Beast. If you want to avoid them, they have the best chance. I made this powder myself and it can attract the Blue Thorn Beast."
"Just now, I scattered some powder at the hiding spot. Even if the Blue Thorn Beast was flying in the sky, it would still be lured down. Although the coachman was commanding it, the Blue Thorn Beast might not listen to the coachman when faced with the temptation of the powder."
Elder Le was shocked. "This powder can attract the Blue Thorn Beast?
How did you do it? "
The girl's face turned red. "This … Beasts are also living creatures and they need to reproduce."
Elder Le understood and looked at her strangely.
