Specks of light rushed out of the Godking's body and circled around Flowing Night's radiance, causing it to dim and flicker.
At this point, the Godqueen arrived, "Godking, let's get to the bottom of this."
The Godking retracted the specks of light.
Flowing Night trembled, "Thank you, Godking. Thank you, Godqueen."
The Godqueen's tone was gentle, but there was a coldness that was hard to ignore, "It's best if you tell us everything you know. We've been tolerating your contact with the unknown, but that doesn't mean we can't kill you. We don't know how strong the unknown is, but we're still a fishing civilization. No civilization can ignore the Godking's true strength."
"Let's go," the Godking barked and turned to leave, no longer paying attention to Le Cheng.
Around him, the gods followed suit.
The Divine Realm had suffered heavy losses in this battle. Countless civilizations had died, and three gods had died. Even the Mother Tree had been cut down.
It wasn't that the Divine Realm didn't want to kill Le Cheng, but that they couldn't.
Flowing Night felt a lingering fear; it didn't know why the unknown had appeared. It hadn't taken the initiative to maintain contact with the unknown, so it could only wait.
He wondered how the Bestowment God was doing.
It was time to make a choice.
Le Cheng was far away from the Divine Realm. Everything had been restored, and no matter how great the losses were, it would recover even faster.
The roaring music was no different from before.
However, two Eternal Realms had died, so it was impossible for them to not care.
Lu Yin looked at the castle; what was Le Gudu thinking?
The Death Universe had seven abysses, and it wasn't a match for the Divine Realm on its own. Would it summon the other abysses?
If it did, would it affect the human civilization?
The Commissioner of Balance suppressed the unknown and started a forced expedition.
The purpose of this war was to end the protection period of the unknown, but Lu Yin was thinking of a way to start a forced expedition to increase the protection period of the three universes.
He had thought that a thousand years was a long time, but now he knew that it was very short.
There were two ways to deal with the Commissioner of Balance's plans for the three universes.
One was to trade with the unknown in exchange for protection.
The other was to start a forced expedition in exchange for the protection of the unknown.
Compared to the former, he would rather start a forced expedition. With his methods, he had the confidence to face any civilization. Even if he did not obtain any rewards, it would not be a problem for him to survive. However, if other unknown civilizations obtained benefits, no one knew what would happen in the end.
Forced expeditions weren't something that could be started at will. Putting aside the unknowns for the time being, if he wanted the unknowns to start a war, there were only three targets. One was a technological civilization, one was a divine civilization, and one was the undead universe.
The technological civilization and the divine world's civilization were a little inferior. They were not qualified to force a war with the unknown. Now it seemed that the only choice was the Death Universe.
Joy City had been lingering in the vicinity all this time. Lu Yin had first lured it to the Divine Realm's civilization, but now, it was very likely that Joy City would attract the other abysses. In any case, the Death Universe would eventually arrive, so Lu Yin might as well forcefully target the Death Universe. Of course, the Divine Realm's civilization would not be able to escape either. The more powers that joined the Death Universe, the easier it would be for them to fish in troubled waters.
Lu Yin was also afraid of overdoing things, but he had no other choice. The Death Universe would definitely come, and the Divine Realm's civilization would definitely be an enemy. He did not know if he had to weaken this enemy's strength, but the current situation was like this. If he did nothing, then he would be completely swallowed up.
Well, then.
These powers were playing a big game.
If that was not enough, he looked in another direction, where the Immortal Plume Civilization was. However, this was his bottom line. After all, the Immortal Plume Civilization's greatest enemy was the unknown and the human race.
None of them would be able to escape.
After withdrawing from the fusion, Lu Yin continuously teleported back and forth until he finally arrived in front of the Ten-Eyed Crow.
The tree from the Divine Realm's civilization had provided him with many green motes of light, which should be enough this time.
As he thought about it, he covered his entire body with green motes of light and raised a hand to touch the Ten-Eyed Crow's eye.
The Celestial Eye opened, and his body was forcefully turned around. Lu Yin gritted his teeth, and his body cooperated with the green motes of light to forcefully withstand the force. His fingertips were icy cold, and a familiar feeling surged into the Celestial Eye. Suddenly, the Ten-Eyed Crow only had one eye left.
It had fused with the Celestial Eye again.
Lu Yin had originally guessed that the Celestial Eye would be fused with this eye as well, and his guess had come true.
However, the Celestial Eye itself had not changed. It was just that when he looked in a certain direction with the Celestial Eye, intersecting black lines would suddenly appear in that direction. This was the Crow's Body Lock, and in the next moment, the intersecting black lines would suddenly rotate, causing the dark path to become blurry. This was the Crow's Body Lock.
He didn't even need to look at his opponent to make them turn around. Furthermore, it was a forceful turn. Unless his opponent was terrifyingly strong, even if they were slightly stronger than Lu Yin, they still wouldn't be able to escape.
Lu Yin was excited and immediately teleported in front of Ba Rong.
Ba Rong stared at him blankly, "Hello."
Lu Yin smiled at him, causing Ba Rong's heart to go cold. Then, intertwining black lines appeared around him. What the hell?
Lu Yin did not use Crow Immobilization. Instead, he spun the intertwining black lines and turned around, reversing their line of sight.
It opened its mouth. Damn it.
He turned around and looked at Lu Yin. "Has the universe been reversed?"
Lu Yin laughed heartily.
Ba Rong did not move and continued to stare blankly at him.
Lu Yin frowned and continued.
After a period of time, he felt helpless. Crow's Twist had a flaw. It could not be used twice on the same creature within a certain period of time.
Crow Immobilization did not have this restriction, but Crow Immobilization required one to look at each other.
Indeed, there was no such thing as invincible talent in this world.
The Ten-eyed Crow's talent was already considered to be the pinnacle of talent, and so it was.
He didn't know if he should heave a sigh of relief or something else. This was to be expected. If there was no limit to its innate talent, the Ten Eyed Divine Crow would be invincible.
Even if there were a few more base masters, they might not be able to take it down, let alone three base masters.
The universe seemed fair, but it was actually unfair. Some creatures were born very strong, while others were born like ants. However, there was also fairness beneath the unfairness. If one was born very strong, it would be difficult to break through. If one was born very weak, it would have an extremely high upper limit.
Some creatures had extremely strong innate talents, but they also had flaws.
This was the balance.
Lu Yin was not disappointed. At the very least, Crow Immobilization gave him a chance to take the initiative, and that was often enough.
There were still about seven hundred years before the protection of the three universes ended, which was actually a very short period of time. Lu Yin had been waiting for the Divine Realm to start a war with Le City, but now that the war had ended, the next step was to see if he could act according to his wishes and force a war on the unknowns.
He first confirmed Le City's position. He had previously seen Le City and had guessed its speed and position. If Le City changed directions midway, then the location was wrong, and he needed to confirm it again.
Lu Yin continuously teleported until he was close to Le City and rolled his die.
Not long after, he fused with a skeleton in Le City. Memories flooded in, and the direction did not change.
Just as he was about to retreat,
After fusing with the die, Lu Yin suddenly stared blankly at two figures in the distance. Why were they here?
The two figures that appeared in front of Lu Yin were Slayer and Eternity.
These two should have been sleeping in the parallel universe of the Ninefirmaments Universe, but they had actually appeared outside Le City's castle.
He stared blankly at Slayer and Eternity as they walked towards the castle. Even though he was staring blankly at them, they were skeletons and did not have eyes. They could not tell that he was staring at them, and they even walked past him.
"We can't enter. If we want to see this Lord Abyss, we have to rely on music to enter the castle."
This was Slayer's voice. He had already tried to enter the castle and had even kept his promise to bring Eternity along, but he could not enter at all.
Eternity calmly replied, "There's no rush. We'll see him eventually."
Slayer replied, "I'm just afraid that we won't be able to find the direction of the Ninefirmaments Universe if we're too far away."
"Le City just went through a war. We'll never forget this location," Eternity replied.
As they spoke, they walked further and further away.
Lu Yin maintained his previous posture, trying his best not to be noticed.
After they were far away, he immediately withdrew from the fusion and continued to roll his die in silence. Again and again, he kept fusing with the skeleton in Le City. His goal was to fuse with Slayer's body and confirm his suspicions all this time.
However, it was not easy to accurately fuse with Slayer's body. After all, there were countless skeletons in Le City, and Slayer was just one of them. He needed luck.
In that case, he would have to use time to accumulate luck.
One day, two years later, Lu Yin finally fused with Slayer's body. Memories flooded in, and he saw it. It was him. It really was him. He was not surprised. It was obvious, but it should not have been so obvious. It was as if he had been telling everyone that he was there.
But he could not believe it.
Scenes of the past appeared in his mind. It was too early, so early that even if the characteristics were so obvious, he still could not believe that it was him.
His previous guess had only been eighty percent correct, but now, he had made up for the remaining two.
That was why Wang Miaomiao had willingly betrayed the humans and followed him. She was destined to stand with this person.
Slayer and Eternity had been brought here when Le City and the Divine Realm were at war. Their appearance meant that the Master of Balance had begun to attack the three universes and wanted to draw the Death Universes over. The Unknown Ones were no longer forcing the three universes to lose their protection. Every step was pushing them into the abyss.
Lu Yin withdrew from the fusion and teleported back to the three universes. The first thing he did was find Xiang Siyu.
He asked her to go into seclusion with him.
"Go into seclusion together?" Xiang Siyu looked at him strangely. "Really? Just seclusion?"
Lu Yin's expression was solemn. "It's fine as long as you sit with me. Although I don't know if your luck will be able to help me, I have no other choice."
Xiang Siyu understood the seriousness of the situation and nodded. "If you need it, I'm available."
"Thank you."
Lu Yin brought Xiang Siyu to the seclusion grounds in the Tianyuan Universe. He greeted Long Xi and had her sit beside him. He then took out Qian Shu. "How many 'luck' characters do you have?"
Qian Shu replied, "Still three. The fourth one is difficult to write."
"Give it to me."
Qian Shu returned to Mount Supreme and Lu Yin placed the three 'luck' characters on three sides of him.
Let's take a gamble.
Although he did not speak to the Master of Balance, he knew the Master of Balance's methods too well. He stopped the Unknown Ones from forcing the war and threw Slayer and Eternity into Le City.
Civilization. Then, what's the next step?
Lu Yin could not imagine what they would face after the protection period was up.
Since he could not think of anything, he would go all out.
