Two groups, the universe was still the same universe, but the experience was completely different.
That was why Emperor Jin used the method of getting lost to experience the various states of the world. Qing Yun was also pursuing the various states of the world.
The various states of the world did not refer to the stories of a hundred people, but could also be the stories of a hundred classes.
If one wanted to experience the state of mind, why not find the corresponding mortal class?
Then, what was his corresponding class?
Prime minister?
Great general?
Or what?
Lu Yin found the next stage of life that he needed to see through.
"Riches and honor to mortals are like resources to us. Riches and honor, if one day you become the richest person among mortals, what will you think?" Jian Heng asked.
Lu Yin sat down. "Have you all forgotten that I am not a mortal? I am also a cultivator."
"There is no difference." Ji was very honest.
Lu Yin rolled his eyes.
Yu Xiang 'er blocked in front of Lu Yin. "You all go, I want to talk to Riches and honor through the night."
Bloody War looked up at Yu Xiang 'er. "Why are you looking for him?"
Yu Xiang 'er was about to speak.
Jian Heng continued, "Because he is called Riches and Honor, a person who is honest to his heart, a person who is fearless of hiding, and a person who can let you see the world of ordinary people. Yu Xiang 'er, as a disciple of Blue Lotus Emperor, your state of mind has indeed surpassed us, including Little Qing Wang. But now we have seen clearly that you should not monopolize it. Riches and honor belong to all of us."
Yu Xiang 'er was stunned and did not know how to answer.
Behind them, the maid could not react until now. How did riches and honor belong to everyone?
He was so popular?
The development of the situation was getting stranger and stranger, so much so that they were seriously thinking about every word that Lu Yin said next.
These were words from ordinary people, but they were also guiding lights for their state of mind.
Little Qing Wang came. Seeing so many people surrounding Lu Yin, he greeted Lu Yin awkwardly and left.
Lu Yin found that Ning Xiao did not come. Right, that person was a rogue cultivator and had experienced a lot of hardships.
"Riches and honor, what do you think of the gap between ordinary people and geniuses?" Jian Heng suddenly asked.
Everyone stared at Lu Yin.
Even Yu Xiang 'er was curious. They were all geniuses and never considered how ordinary people looked at them. In their eyes, there were only geniuses.
In the eyes of ordinary people, what were geniuses?
Lu Yin pondered for a moment and looked at everyone seriously. "In my eyes, they are all the same."
Sly Strike raised his eyebrows. "Impossible. How can we be the same as ordinary people?"
Ji shook his head and didn't believe it either.
Lu Yin's expression was serious. "Trust me, in my eyes, you're no different from ordinary people."
Bloody War stared at Lu Yin, "That's right, it's all the same."
Everyone looked at him, puzzled.
Xue Zhan's tone was low as he retracted his gaze. "Geniuses and ordinary people are all the same if they don't reach immortality. This is our understanding. But in Fugui's eyes, the people he can't catch up with are all geniuses."
Jian Heng came to a sudden realization and looked at Xue Zhan in amazement. "Not bad, your state of mind is not bad. Anyone who can't compare to wealth is a genius. Is there a difference?
It's all the same. "
Ji nodded in agreement.
Sly Strike also understood, and he looked at Lu Yin sympathetically. "Fugui, I've touched on your sore spot."
Lu Yin felt numb, but it was all the same.
Yu Xiang 'er was displeased. "Everyone, you may leave now."
Jian Heng turned and left. "That's all for today. Fugui, let's go shopping tomorrow."
"Don't stir up trouble. Who can take Fu Gui away alone?
Actually, you can find other ordinary people. "
"Even ordinary people are hypocrites. Some people have not yet developed their minds, so they use such names. Fugui is the only cultivator I've ever seen, and one whose realm isn't too low to use such a name. Such people are one in a billion."
"That's why he can bring us to see the world of ordinary people."
"Then let's do it tomorrow. We can't let Little Azure King take him away."
"Of course."
"Why don't we not go back? We'll sit around to prevent anyone from taking Fugui away."
"Agreed."
"Agreed …"
Their voices gradually faded away. In the courtyard, Lu Yin rubbed his head. Geniuses, they're really good at imagining things. They're all very smart, and they can make more connections with just one sentence. How good would it be if he could deceive himself like them?
Thinking about this, Lu Yin suddenly froze in place and stared at the ground in a daze. Deceive himself, deceive himself, deceive himself.
Yes, deceive himself.
He could deceive himself, but his own karma still existed. Why had he never thought of investigating his own karma?
No, he couldn't investigate his own karma because it belonged to him. Fortune-tellers had never divined his own karma. There was only one exception, and that was when he faced a calamity and used the calamity itself to calculate its effects on himself. It was just like when he had battled with Avici, when he had been devoured by Avici's time template.
At that time, he had used Avici's calamity as a starting point to calculate his own karma and how he would die. He had also seen Avici's ability. Aside from that, without a primer, he would not be able to calculate his own karma.
However, he still had the Karmic Phenomenon.
Lu Yin looked up at the sky. In the past, he had not been able to calculate his own karma, but with the help of the Karmic Phenomenon, things were different. With himself as the cause, effect, and end, he could create karmic threads that constantly collided with each other. He could calculate whether or not he could calculate that someone was watching him or that someone was plotting against him.
This was different from when he had calculated the future.
The first time he had comprehended karma, Lu Yin had calculated that someone was watching him, and this kind of gaze could be shifted and used different methods.
However, if he used karma to calculate his own karma, then any methods that were plotting against him would not be able to be hidden. Perhaps he might not be able to see clearly what methods were used, but he would definitely know that someone was plotting against him. For example, Bai Gu's mark.
Yes, he could calculate karma horizontally and use the Karmic Phenomenon.
Also, the transformation of one's state of mind could also deceive one's self. Others plotting against one's self was deceiving, and so was one's self plotting against one's self. However, it could allow one to gain a deeper understanding of one's state of mind.
Lu Yin took a deep breath. Mortals could deceive themselves and calculate horizontally. He wanted to laugh.
This trip had not been in vain. Even if he couldn't find Deathly Stillness or Wanli, it would not be a loss.
"I'm sorry, Fugui," Yu Xiang 'er apologized.
Lu Yin was puzzled. "Why?"
Yu Xiang 'er sighed. "You might not be able to rest easy after being targeted by them."
Lu Yin laughed. "It's fine. They're all good people."
Yu Xiang 'er's gaze was complicated. She wanted to say something, but she did not. She only said, "I'll take you away from Blackpool City as soon as possible. As for Fugui, you shouldn't use it anymore. Change your name. These geniuses can be very extreme sometimes."
Lu Yin nodded and did not refuse.
There were several rooms in the courtyard. Yu Xiang 'er went back to rest. The maid came over and looked at Lu Yin curiously.
"What's wrong?" Lu Yin was puzzled.
The maid was even more puzzled. "Something's wrong with you."
Lu Yin touched his face. "What's wrong?"
"Are you schizophrenic?"
"Why are you scolding me?"
"I'm not scolding you. It's just strange. Look, you dared to provoke Jian Heng, and you were so respectful to the Young Azure King. At first, you were a little reserved in front of those geniuses, but then you didn't care at all. Just now, you looked like you had comprehended something. I keep feeling that the you I'm seeing is not the real you."
Lu Yin pursed his lips. "You're thinking too much. This is me, an honest and ordinary person. Fugui."
The maid blinked and looked away. "Well, maybe I don't understand what you're thinking. After all, I've been with Miss since young. You should rest well."
To the outside world, it was another candlelight talk.
The next day, Jian Heng and the others came again and began to talk to Lu Yin.
Then the third day, and day after day, Lu Yin couldn't refuse. Otherwise, it would be beyond what an ordinary person like him should do.
As an ordinary rogue cultivator, he struggled on the line between life and death all year round. For a spot in the treasure hunting team, he would fight to the death. What right did he have to refuse to talk to these famous geniuses?
Moreover, these geniuses had given him benefits.
"Ten spots in the treasure hunting team."
"Twenty. I'll go and talk to City Lord Yu."
"Permanent spots. You can come whenever you want."
In the distance, Yu Sheng was helpless. This was directly making the decision for him.
Lu Yin felt that talking with these geniuses was sometimes very rewarding. Although they were geniuses, they were also human beings with stories and a thirst for knowledge. In his eyes, these geniuses were no different from ordinary people. Even the Young Azure Emperor, who many people thought could become an Eternal Life Realm genius, was very ordinary in Lu Yin's eyes.
He also wanted to know what these ordinary people were thinking and their stories.
However, it had been a little too long. He was worried that the existence underground would notice the clues and run away. Now that everyone except the Boat of Hardship was here, it was time to start.
But the way to start had to be changed.
In the past, he wanted Bai Xia from the Junior Imperial Tower to show up. Now, there was no need.
"Fugui, in the eyes of ordinary people, what are the strong like?" someone asked. It was Ji.
Lu Yin thought for a moment. "Like the Young Azure King."
They raised their eyebrows and stared at him.
"The Young Azure King?" Jian Heng's eyes turned cold.
Lu Yin nodded. "As the strongest of the younger generation, the Young Azure King is the strongest in our eyes."
Jian Heng sneered. "Are you kidding? Who told you that the Young Azure King is the strongest?"
Lu Yin was puzzled. "No?
It can't be you, right? "
Jian Heng's eyes flashed coldly.
Xue Zhan looked at Lu Yin. "Why do you think the Young Azure King is the strongest?"
Lu Yin said, "It's not me. It's us who think that the Young Azure King is the First Junior Imperial Censor."
Xue Zhan narrowed his eyes. "Is that so? If you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten. It's time to decide the First Junior Imperial Censor."
Sly Strike's eyes lit up as he stared at Xue Zhan. "I forgot too. I should have defeated you long ago, Xue Zhan."
Ji clenched his fist. "Where is Ning Xiao?"
Jian Heng turned around. "Everyone, since Fugui and these ordinary people think that the Young Azure King is the strongest, let's let them see who is the strongest. I suggest that we decide the strongest at the top of Blackpool City. The loser will step aside and the winner will step up."
Sly Strike licked his lips. "We should have done this long ago. Fugui, watch carefully. This is a peak showdown. There may not be such an exciting showdown in the next few generations."
