Lu Yin took a sip of tea. Humans were creatures that cared a lot about their reputation. Often, right or wrong was not important, but the reason was. Even if the reason was ridiculous, as long as it was a reason, it was fine.
In the end, the strong were respected.
Although Shui Su's experience was tragic, it was not unique. Lu Yin had seen the experiences of countless cultivators in the Tianyuan Universe through the Union of Wishes. There were many who had it worse than Shui Su, and everyone had their own path.
Ordinary people had dreams that the Eternal Realm could not hope to achieve, and cultivators had lives that other cultivators envied and sorrowful.
The Eternal Realm was one's own eternal life, but one had to conform to the laws of the universe. However, the universe did not belong to one person, but to everyone and all living things. If one person could not conform to the laws, then what about two people?
What about twenty people?
Twenty thousand, two million, two hundred million?
If one person's experience could not comprehend eternal life, then what about a hundred people?
Ten thousand, a million, a hundred million?
Lu Yin looked at the tea in his cup. His cultivation time had been too short. Normally, if he wanted to comprehend eternal life and cross the Bitter Adversity, he would need at least ten thousand years to do so. However, every step he took was different, and the path others took did not apply to him at all.
It was not impossible for him to walk the path of eternal life again.
Bitter adversity was something that had to be experienced. Whether it was through the rebooting of the universe or breaking through on his own, it was difficult to avoid this hurdle. He did not want to avoid it either, but he could build a Bitter Adversity Wall based on each person's experience.
His own bitterness, bitterness was not a kind of realm, but the course of one's heart, it was life.
If he built everyone's Bitter Adversity into a high wall, then as long as he broke through a single Bitter Adversity, he might be able to break through to eternal life.
Lu Yin did not know if he was right, but even if he was wrong, comprehending everyone's experience would be beneficial for him to cross the Bitter Adversity Wall.
When he thought of this, he looked up at the sky. At that moment, the world changed, and he slowly raised his hand towards Shui Su.
Shui Su stared blankly at Lu Yin, not daring to move. She did not know what he was going to do.
She did not think too much about what Lu Yin would do to her. Although she was confident in her appearance, this was Lu Yin, someone who did not even care about the Seven Fairies. What kind of woman could he not have?
Lu Yin's hand went past Shui Su and landed in the sky. A brick appeared in the sky, and it was so familiar. He remembered that when he had first scaled down the walls of karma, he had also done it one brick at a time. Now, he was doing it one brick at a time.
Here comes a brick.
He seemed to be fated with bricks.
In the past, he was a thief, but now, he was a thief. Interesting.
The first brick to break the mental wall was Shui Su. This woman had experienced the hardships of being a rogue cultivator and received the blessing of her family. However, she had also experienced the pain of being homeless, the sorrow of being separated from her family, and an old friend. She was the perfect person for the job.
One day, when the wall of his state of mind was erected, would he be able to step over this high wall and enter immortality?
Lu Yin didn't know, but he knew that he would have to walk the path of his mental state sooner or later.
Shui Su's opportunity came at the right time.
A few days later, Lu Yin looked ahead. "The waterways have changed."
Shui Su had bid farewell to Lu Yin the day before, but he had not allowed her to leave. He wanted to see Lin Jie.
The reason why Lin Jie had warmly invited Shui Su to stay in the Linlu Shan family was because he thought that Shui Su had a good relationship with him. Although he already knew that Shui Su had nothing to do with him, they already had a father-daughter relationship.
Cut each other.
Shui Su had been the one who had given him inspiration, and he had to repay her kindness in the future.
"That's the Fifteen-Family Alliance!" Shui Su exclaimed.
Lu Yin was surprised. "The Fifteen-Family Alliance?"
Shui Su nodded, her face solemn. "In order to deal with the civilization war and the invasion of the Tianyuan Universe's cultivators, the Fifteen-Family Alliance has formed an alliance. I almost forgot, they've changed the waterways.
Five Family Alliance, Master Lu, we … "She was about to remind Lu Yin to change directions when she suddenly remembered who this person was.
He was Lu Yin. Who had the right to ask him to avoid them?
Not even the strongest in the Eastern Region, Great Dream Sky, had the right, let alone the Fifteen-Family Alliance.
"Have some tea." Lu Yin smiled.
Shui Su exhaled and nodded. She looked at the colossus of the Fifteen-Family Alliance in the distance and felt an unprecedented sense of security. She had never thought that she would be able to cross this colossus one day.
No one could stop her. As long as she was with this person, anything he said could come true.
In the distance, Grand Daddy Li and the others watched from afar. "He's really going."
"Grand Daddy Li, is this person really going to cross the Fifteen-Family Alliance?"
"Let's go and visit the Dong family in advance. We'll see what he does there."
"What if he's not that powerful?" Xiao Gengzi asked.
Grand Daddy Li's eyes turned cold. "We'll see."
His things could not be taken so easily. Otherwise, how could he survive in Martial Sun City?
Soon, the boat approached the Fifteen-Family Alliance's encampment. It was a huge stronghold with a circle of sourcebox arrays around it. Lu Yin could tell at a glance that these sourcebox arrays were not bad; they must have been set up by an Origin Array Celestial Master.
A Fifteen-Family Alliance?
There were so many of them.
Ever since he'd entered the cultivation world, he had never seen so many family alliances. They were not afraid of conflicts, and the only reason for this was that one family was exceptionally powerful and could completely suppress the others.
As the boat approached, a shout came from afar. "Outsiders are not allowed to enter the Fifteen-Family Alliance. Stop."
"Stop."
"Stop …"
The shouts traveled into the distance, full of intimidation.
Shui Su's originally tense expression had calmed down. If not for Lu Yin, she would not have even looked at this place, let alone approach. But now, it felt good to be able to rely on someone else's might.
Lu Yin did not mind and instead looked at the stronghold with interest. It was just like a bandit group. The Fifteen-Family Alliance seemed very powerful, and many people thought that it was a force to be reckoned with. However, it was far from a true power.
They were not even on the same level.
Even if the number of experts was about the same, it would be useless.
Factions could be passed down, but this Fifteen-Family Alliance did not have a complete inheritance, which was its greatest flaw.
The boat continued to approach, and the intimidation from afar grew stronger. Some people even tried to attack, but their attacks could not even get close to the boat, and they simply disappeared. The people from the Fifteen-Family Alliance were stunned.
The boat passed through the sourcebox array.
It was as if the sourcebox array that the Fifteen-Family Alliance was so proud of did not even exist. The boat flowed along the river. Lu Yin's leisurely appearance and Shui Su's calmness gave the Fifteen-Family Alliance an unfathomable feeling.
Shui Su's beauty was even more frightening.
Only the strong were worthy of beautiful people.
They could not even see Lu Yin's face clearly.
The Fifteen-Family Alliance was completely alarmed. One cultivator after another walked out and looked at the river, but they could not see Lu Yin clearly.
"Old Broken, can you see who it is?"
"I can't."
"Where's Old White?"
"Old White can't see clearly either."
…
"Father, the family head is here."
"Family Head, I'm incompetent. I can't see this person's face clearly."
"I can't see clearly either."
"What?
Family Head, even you can't see clearly? "
"Go get the ancestor."
"There's no need. I'm here. I can't see clearly."
"Don't offend this person."
…
Although it was a mountain stronghold, there was a completely different world behind each stronghold. It contained a huge area, and it only looked like a mountain stronghold on the surface.
The mountain strongholds had a circular structure, and the river flowed along the center of the stronghold. The largest mountain stronghold belonged to the Dong family.
At this moment, Grand Daddy Li and the others were being led inside by the Dong family. They looked down the wooden ladder and saw the boat floating on the river. "Why is this boat able to pass through the river?
Isn't the Dong family going to stop it? "
The Dong family's members all had solemn expressions. They had just been notified that no one was allowed to offend this boat. They were not allowed to ask questions or even look at it.
Change Source App.]
No one answered.
Everyone could only watch as the boat passed through the Fifteen-Family Alliance, entering from one side of the stronghold and exiting from the other. From beginning to end, the Fifteen-Family Alliance did not dare to say a word.
Grand Daddy Li, Xiao Gengzi, and the others exchanged glances, completely suppressing their thoughts. Fortunately, they had not provoked this person before.
The Fifteen-Family Alliance did not even dare to ask questions. What kind of heaven-defying method was this?
This person had to be a powerhouse from the human civilization, someone they would never be able to meet in their lifetime.
Grand Daddy Li was curious about who this person was, but the Fifteen-Family Alliance was even more curious.
The Dong family's ancestor was a powerhouse who had reached the Bitter Adversity level. Grand Daddy Li wanted to pay him a visit, but he could not even see that person's face clearly. That person was at least at the peak of the Bitter Adversity level, or even higher.
If the Dong family could climb up to this level, they would not need the other fourteen families.
But just as this thought appeared in his mind, a gaze swept over him, causing him to bow deeply. If that person did not wish to be disturbed, then so be it.
They were not qualified.
The Fifteen-Family Alliance left, and Shui Su looked behind her, her vision growing blurry. She had never been so glorious in her life.
After today, even if she did not stay with Master Lu, her life would be different because of this incident.
The Fifteen-Family Alliance was not stupid, and they would definitely remember her. This meant that everyone would know that there was someone behind her that the Fifteen-Family Alliance did not dare to provoke, just like the Linlu Mountain family had thought.
Life changes were sometimes very simple.
"Thank you, Master Lu." Shui Su bowed.
Lu Yin looked at her and smiled. "I didn't do anything. I was just admiring the scenery."
Shui Su had a complicated look in her eyes. Indeed, just admiring the scenery could change a person's life. This was why countless people yearned to become stronger. This was the world of the strong.
They were both born under this starry sky, but they were completely different.
More than a month later, Lu Yin met Lin Jie.
Lin Jie stared blankly at Lu Yin, who had suddenly arrived with an expression of disbelief.
Lu Yin was still sitting on the boat, while Lin Jie stood by the river and slowly knelt down. "This lowly Lin Jie greets Master Lu."
Behind Lin Jie was a woman with a weathered face. She looked older than Shui Su, but she was Lin Jie's daughter and was much younger than Shui Su. At this moment, she also knelt with Lin Jie. "Greetings, Lord Lu."
Master Lu? Could it be that Master Lu?
Impossible. How could such a powerful person come here?
An unstoppable force lifted Lin Jie up.
Lu Yin looked at him. "You wanted to see me, so here I am."
Lin Jie was bitter and did not know what to say. Wanted to see him?
Yes, he had wanted to see him for a long time. He had wanted to see him before the Linlu Mountain family had been driven out of Linlu Mountain, but it was too late now. The Linlu Mountain family was no more.
All of this had nothing to do with this person. He just did not know what to say.
