"Can I be the Envoy of Balance?" Lu Yin suddenly asked.
Within the broken blue hanging coffin, Lan Meng sneered, full of disdain.
The old man chuckled. "Haha."
Eight Color was as calm as ever. "Yes, as long as you are qualified to take this mission."
"Okay, I'll take it. What qualifications do I need?" Who cares about the Envoy of Balance? Let's find out first.
Eight Color said, "Complete a five-star mission first."
"Must I complete a five-star mission to be the Envoy of Balance?"
"To be the Envoy of Balance, you must first complete a five-star mission, but completing a five-star mission doesn't make you a Envoy of Balance. These are two different concepts, little guy. Haha."
"Haha, old man, do you want to be the Envoy of Balance?"
"Haha."
Lu Yin decided not to talk nonsense with it. This old man would not give up any information; it was very smart.
Not long after, Lu Yin opened the hanging coffin lid and sat up, exhaling.
Every time he went to Knowing Whereabouts, it was like quarreling, a battle of wits, and the information he received was mixed. It was chaotic, especially when he was disgusted by the old man.
Usually, he was the one who was disgusted by others, but he was the first to be disgusted by that old man.
In the future, when he went to Knowing Whereabouts, he would not talk nonsense with that old man.
Wait, if he ignored it, what if it targeted him?
Just like when he targeted Lan Meng, it would be even more disgusting. He had to think of a way.
This conversation with Knowing Whereabouts had yielded some information.
First, the old man might know who was targeting Ancestor Shan, and it might be lying to him. However, it wanted his blood, and this creature's methods might be related to blood, so he had to be careful.
Secondly, there were many hanging coffins, and the Envoy of Balance was willing to let him see them, so Lan Meng was not qualified.
Finally, to become the Envoy of Balance, one had to complete a five-star mission. Human civilization only had Four Stars missions, which meant that the Envoy of Balance was terrifyingly strong. If it was really the mysterious Envoy of Balance hiding in the Tianyuan Universe, it would be troublesome.
However, even the Azure Lotus Emperor might not be able to withstand it.
Then, could it be that the one targeting Ancestor Shan was this unknown?
This unknown had the ability to monitor them and knew that they had gone to support the Seven Treasures Toad tribe. With its strength, it might not be able to escape with teleportation.
It had strength and information; the possibility was very high.
That's right, Qi Xu and Lan Meng both accepted missions to destroy this human civilization, and this mysterious unknown was hidden in this human civilization, so it was impossible to say that they had no connection.
Was this unknown behind Lan Meng?
Lu Yin stared at the sky in a daze. If Lu Yin's analysis was correct, then he would be able to learn a lot of things as long as he caught Lan Meng.
Red threads shot out from the divine power planet and wrapped around the coffin. With each loop, the divine power planet expanded a little. A familiar feeling appeared, and Lu Yin's gaze grew heavy. The more the threads wrapped around the coffin, the more the coffin seemed to grow.
The more one's state changed, the more unpredictable it became. Once it completely wrapped around the hanging coffin, that state might be similar to the silver thread entering one's body. That was something one could not bear.
Previously, in Mister Mu's universe, he had relied on Mister Mu to suppress the silver thread.
Lu Yin retracted the red thread, which had already wrapped itself around half of the coffin. Any more and it would be difficult to control it, so he decided to take it slow.
Although the unknown did not explicitly control the creatures that joined them, whether it was the divine power or the hanging coffin, if they could fully utilize it, it would be equivalent to completely joining the unknown. There was no need for other means of control.
If not for the fact that he had long cultivated divine power and was able to control it, he would not have been able to touch the hanging coffin as easily as he did now.
This was the terrifying aspect of the unknown. There were no restrictions everywhere, but there were restrictions everywhere.
The unknown did not force him to complete the task because they knew that he would have to complete it sooner or later. This was both because of the uncontrollable divine power and because of the rewards.
Lan Meng had once said that he wanted to destroy human civilization for the rewards.
Once he received a reward, he would not be able to extricate himself.
What the unknown controlled was the most primitive desire of all creatures.
This desire was even more terrifying than controlling life itself.
The unknown had schemed against all the creatures that joined them, but it did not understand itself.
Because of Mister Mu's help, even the silver thread could be suppressed, let alone the hanging coffin.
Thinking of this, he dragged the hanging coffin to the Tianyuan universe and found Mister Mu to head to the mirage domain. With the help of Mister Mu's methods to suppress the divine power and the lack of time in the mirage domain, he began to adapt.
He did not know how long this adaptation took, but when Lu Yin came out, he had already stored the hanging coffin on the divine power planet.
"Master, how is your karmic binding?" Lu Yin asked.
It was not a good idea to ask others about the Karmic Shackles, but the incident with Patriarch Shan had left a shadow in Lu Yin's heart. Every time he acted, Mister Mu, Alarmed Gate Shangyu, and the others would not hesitate to help him.
The karmic binding did exist, but they did not want him to worry.
Since they could do this, Lu Yin did not care whether it was good or bad, so he asked directly.
Mister Mu was surprised. "Why are you asking this?"
Lu Yin said, "I just want to know if you can still act."
Mister Mu laughed. "Of course."
Lu Yin looked at Mister Mu seriously. "Master, do you know how long Alarmed Gate Shangyu endured before she acted when the insect tide civilization attacked?
Why did she endure all this time?
If she had acted earlier at that time, the human cultivators would not have been killed or injured.
But she did the right thing. "
Mister Mu nodded. "I know what you mean, but now, Alarmed Gate Shangyu did not hesitate to act for you. You are worthy of all of us acting, even if we have to pay the price."
"But this price should not be based on the inability to protect human civilization, because I also have to protect human civilization," Lu Yin said.
Mister Mu and Lu Yin looked at each other, and after a moment, he smiled. "Yes, I forgot that we are all protecting human civilization."
"Don't worry, I don't have many karmic bindings."
After he spoke, he raised his wrist, and the karmic bindings on his wrist were much fewer than Master Grass's.
Lu Yin relaxed. After all, Mister Mu had just broken through not too long ago. Even if he had acted, he could not have been bound so easily. What was the point of being an Eternal Realm cultivator?
Master Grass and Patriarch Shan's karmic bindings came from their constant attacks. The passage of time was something that mortals could not calculate, which allowed their karmic bindings to be constantly perfected.
Mister Mu still had a long way to go.
"I know that this is impolite, but I still want to confirm Alarmed Lotus's karmic bindings," Lu Yin said.
Mister Mu smiled. He did not agree or disagree.
Lu Yin went to Ninefirmaments Universe and found Alarmed Lotus to ask him about his karmic bindings.
Looking at the surprised expression on Qinglian Yu's face, Lu Yin said helplessly, "I just want to confirm who can and can't attack."
Alarmed Lotus laughed. "Are you afraid of Patriarch Shan's matter?"
"Yes, I'm afraid that you will suddenly become like Patriarch Shan. For the Seven Treasures Heavenly Toad clan, the separation is too sudden," Lu Yin said.
Alarmed Lotus nodded. "Don't worry, we know what to do. Originally, when we went to help the Seven Treasures Heavenly Toad, the Wonder Gate wanted to act, but I stopped her. Although her karmic bindings are not too many, acting repeatedly will greatly shorten the number of Guardians.
It's not worth the time of such a civilization. "
"More than half of the Blood Tower's karmic bindings are bound, and Master Grass has the most. That Sky Bearing Immortality has very few karmic bindings, and Bitter Lamp has very few karmic bindings as well. Throughout human civilization, the one with the least karmic bindings should be your City Lord Jiang."
"He has never acted."
Lu Yin shrugged. "I didn't have the chance to ask Uncle Jiang to act, and I don't know how strong he is."
Alarmed Lotus frowned. "This City Lord Jiang is different from the Eternal Realm cultivators I've seen. The Bitter Adversity he crossed came from the suffering after the shortcut. It's as if someone created a hurdle and then crossed it.
It's as if the universe deceived itself and brought itself into the Eternal Realm. "
"It doesn't matter how strong he is. I'm worried that he will face the Bitter Adversity again in the future. The universe is not that easy to deceive."
Lu Yin was uneasy. "Uncle Jiang is going to cross the Bitter Adversity again?"
Alarmed Lotus said, "I don't know. The path he took is different from ours. We can see at a glance that he can achieve Eternal Life. The feeling of success when the conditions are right is clearly that he has crossed the Bitter Adversity, but ever since he stepped into the Eternal Realm, it still lingered.
The feeling of Bitter Adversity. "
"Let's put it this way. There are ten points to crossing the Bitter Adversity. All creatures who cross the Bitter Adversity can only be considered Eternal Life after crossing this ten points. From the first time I met that City Lord Jiang, I found that he had already crossed 99% of the Bitter Adversity, so he could naturally break through to Eternal Life.
But after breaking through to Eternal Life, the remaining Bitter Adversity has not dissipated. "
"This is beyond my expectations. That Bitter Adversity is likely to plant a seed of disaster for him in the future. Although it's only a little, it's not very simple."
"Especially since he has already stepped into the Eternal Realm. No one knows what that Bitter Adversity will be like. No one steps into Eternal Life first and then crosses the Bitter Adversity. He is very special. Throughout human history, there has never been such a person."
The more Lu Yin listened, the more uneasy he became. "Is there any way for Uncle Jiang to cross that Bitter Adversity as soon as possible?
If there's no other way, can he try to cross the Bitter Adversity now? "Qinglian Yu smiled bitterly." Do you think this can be controlled by humans?
That Bitter Adversity comes from his own body. It's not impossible for him to be like this forever. He's no different from other Eternal Life. It's also possible that one day it will erupt and drag him into the abyss.
No one can say for sure. "
"I think he knows it himself."
Lu Yin rubbed his head. He hadn't expected that the biggest problem would actually be Uncle Jiang.
"Taking a shortcut and crossing a shortcut. In the end, his path is a shortcut. There are no shortcuts in the universe. The more one takes a shortcut, the more they will have to pay in the end." Qinglian Yu sighed.
Lu Yin spat.
Uncle Jiang was not taking a shortcut. He had already borne the price of taking a shortcut, but stepping into Eternal Life was also a shortcut. This price had to be paid.
"Don't tell that City Lord Jiang about this. He knows. If he doesn't know, it'll be easier for you to lead to his Bitter Adversity." Qinglian Yu reminded.
Lu Yin nodded. "This junior understands." "There's more."
Qinglian Yu looked at Lu Yin. "You don't have to feel burdened by the Karmic Binding. Whether it's us or your master, we didn't do it for you. We did it for the future of human civilization. I'm not trying to put you on a pedestal. At least with your teleportation, you are qualified to represent the entire human civilization."
