The Path Sword slashed at Life and Death Calamity Palm.
Life and Death Calamity Palm's hand stopped. On the square, the black light expanded again and spread to the entire arm.
The Path Sword slashed down.
A palm slapped horizontally.
Path Sword: Shatter.
Lu Yin's pupils shrank. How was this possible?
He knew that a top powerhouse could break the Karma Path Sword, but he didn't expect it to be so easy. It was as easy as slapping an ordinary sword away.
That was the power of karma.
"You know karma too. Human, I'm getting more and more interested in you. Enter my Death Realm and I'll grant you eternal life."
Life and Death Calamity Palm's voice shook the sky. The black light covered the entire Jiuxiao Universe and then spread to the spiritualized universe and the Tian Yuan Universe.
In the Tian Yuan Universe, the God King's light shone brightly. Countless light spots turned into a light screen and blocked Life and Death Calamity Palm's black light, causing the three universes to be black and white.
Under the black light, countless people were in a daze. Many cultivators were killed by White Bone and didn't even fight back. It was as if they were stupid.
Under the white light, a clock appeared above countless people's heads. When the needle turned to a certain direction, everyone in the Tian Yuan Universe began to do the same thing. It was terrifying.
Even the Ancient God in the Tian Yuan Universe, Jiang Feng, was no exception.
Only Mister Mu and Chu Songyun were barely holding on with the help of the treasure. However, a clock loomed above their heads.
"Back off." Life and Death Calamity Palm looked at the God King and shouted.
The God King was impatient. "You should back off."
"I'll deal with this civilization."
"It's not your turn."
Ba Rong trembled and kept shrinking his body to dodge. It was over. They were all ruthless characters. How many powerful creatures had this civilization offended?
The three universes were fighting. Life and Death Calamity Palm and the God King were the most dazzling. Below them, there were many creatures from the Death Realm and God World.
Ancestor Chen attacked Flowing Night with the Starry Fist, but it was easily resolved by Flowing Night. It wasn't an ordinary Eternal Realm, and Ancestor Chen was at most a rascal.
In the spiritualized universe, Master Grass stared blankly at the door. It had failed. His last hope was gone.
In the Jiuxiao Universe, in the starry sky near Lu Yin's heart, three lines of divine power merged..
The Tri-Colored Divine Power surged into the sky.
The Life and Death Calamity Palm was even more surprised. "You can even control this kind of power to such an extent. Human, I admire you. I give you the right to not turn into a skeleton and enter my universe of death."
"As for this civilization, you can also join it, but you'll just have to change your life form. Furthermore, it can be yours. This is the best treatment for you."
He tore open the divine power cocoon with one hand and walked out. Now, he could control the tri-colored divine power as he wished, and he was no longer as rational as he had been in the beginning.
The boiling tri-colored Qi Sea surged out and spread continuously, becoming the third color of the tri-colored universe, resisting the black and white light.
Life and Death Calamity Palm spoke again, "You are no match for me."
Lu Yin knew that he wasn't a match for a Life or Death Calamity Master. His opponent was a peak powerhouse who had harmonized with two laws of the universe, and he had yet to reach that level.
However, it wasn't that easy to destroy the three universes.
He looked up at Samsara Palm before suddenly looking at the Tian Yuan Cosmos. "Get out here."
"Wang Wen-"
A loud shout resounded through the three universes.
It also left countless people shocked and in disbelief.
Wang Wen?
What did he mean?
This war is about.
What did Wang Wen have to do with him?
And why was Master Lu so angry?
What did Wang Wen do?
In the Tian Yuan Cosmos, on the back of Tiangou, a light swept past. Wang Xiaoyu and the Forgotten Ruins God slowly turned to look and saw Wang Wen with a faint smile. He looked at the Ninth Heaven Cosmos and Lu Yin. "Finally, you're willing to face me."
In the Ninth Heaven Cosmos, Lu Yin stared at Wang Wen, his gaze crossing the three universes. He clenched his fists as the Qi Sea behind him boiled. Gou Lian was constantly changing the power of death to protect the Ninth Heaven Cosmos and the spiritualized universe.
The terrifying aura caused the void to distort, and even the Bitter Adversity powerhouses couldn't see clearly.
"Get out here!" Lu Yin shouted again. With a wave of his hand, he tore open the starry sky and descended in front of Wang Wen.
Wang Wen didn't move, and Tiangou was terrified. It felt an unparalleled power descend, but it dissipated in an instant, unable to get close to Wang Wen.
In the Tian Yuan Cosmos, the Godking, Flowing Night God, and the others stopped and looked at Wang Wen. Was he the unknown Envoy of Balance?
For a long time, the civilizations of the Divine Realm had been used to understand the unknown. They knew about the existence of the Envoy of Balance, but they didn't know who he was.
Even Flowing Night God didn't know.
But now, they saw him.
The Godking revealed his killing intent towards Wang Wen, but it was only for a moment. So what if he killed the Envoy of Balance? Didn't he still have to face the entire unknown?
Compared to that, they needed to leave more. They needed to leave this region of the starry sky and go somewhere else.
This region was too dangerous.
The Death Cosmos also stopped its battle and looked at Wang Wen. Facing him and facing Lu Yin were two completely different concepts.
This Envoy of Balance was unfathomable.
Wang Wen smiled, and the surrounding spacetime distorted. He brought Tiangou, the Forgetful Ruins God, and Wang Xiaoyu down to the Ninth Heaven Cosmos and appeared in front of Lu Yin. "Your Highness Chess Piece, how long can you last in this game of chess?"
Lu Yin looked at Wang Wen, this familiar and trustworthy person.
Yes, he was the Envoy of Balance.
He was the person who had weakened the upper limit of the three universes and brought despair to Lu Yin and the entire human civilization.
When had he started to suspect Wang Wen?
Lu Yin himself didn't know. Perhaps it was the first time he had seen so many hanging coffins through the Stargazing Deck?
Or had Qinglian Shangyu and the others told him that each unknown corresponded to a different color?
Or had Wang Wen analyzed the situation of the universe for him with his superb insight? And this situation shouldn't have been achieved by someone whose cultivation was only at the Emissary level?
He really didn't know.
He wasn't surprised at all when this suspicion was confirmed.
He wasn't surprised at all.
It was as if Wang Wen could be the Envoy of Balance.
He schemed for war and the future. No matter how dangerous the situation was, he was safe and sound. It was as if nothing could break his transparent hanging coffin. Yes, he had once said that the transparent hanging coffin was given to him by the Hall of Honor. But at the Hall of Honor's level, this transparent hanging coffin wasn't enough for him to face the many dangers that would come later.
Chaotic thoughts flashed through Lu Yin's mind. He looked at Wang Wen's familiar yet unfamiliar face and recalled many of the things he had said. He didn't remember these words now, but when he had merged into Zhu's body and seen Wang Wen throw him and Eternity into Le City. He recalled them in those hundreds of years in Le City.
"Chess Path Master, sometimes it's not a good thing to think too much. Instead, you'll lose your greatest advantage.
"If a fisherman is hungry, and there's only one fish in the lake, and another hungry fisherman comes, what do you think these two fishermen should do?
"I like to wait for an opportunity to find me.
But the willing ones will take the bait.
"Sometimes, life is like a lock that locks us firmly. Mortals have their own hardships, and cultivators have their own hardships. No one can relax, and it's the same for Eternity.
"Looking at the chessboard, the countdown to death has never stopped, whether it's seen or not. Chess Path Master, how long do you think you can last in this game of chess?"
There was too much. He and Wang Wen had had countless conversations over the years, and they had played chess many times.
They had lost more than they had won.
And now, with civilization as chess pieces and life and death as the ending, it was also a game of chess.
How long could he last in this game of chess?
"Why is it you?" Lu Yin's tone was dry.
Wang Wen smiled. "Why not me?"
"I hope it's not you."
"Sorry, but hope can't change the truth. Besides, it's been me from the very beginning. It hasn't changed."
Lu Yin slowly said, "Because your surname is Wang."
Wang Wen smiled. "Yes, my surname is Wang."
Behind him, the God of Forgotten Ruins closed his eyes. Yes, he was the Wang family's patriarch.
His surname was Wang, so Wang Miaomiao had been his person from the very beginning, his junior.
During the era of the Above Heaven Sect, everyone thought that Wang Miaomiao was the Wang family's patriarch, but they were wrong. The real Wang family's patriarch was Wang Wen, and he had always been there.
He was also the person that Wang Xiaoyu had been looking for all this time, the person who had set up the entire Tian Yuan Universe.
The outcome had been decided from the very beginning, and no one could change it. Wang Wen had been born much earlier than the Primogenitor. If he had wanted to, the Tian Yuan Universe would have been destroyed long ago, and none of these things would have happened. However, these things did not affect him at all.
"You stayed in the Tian Yuan Universe all this time to wait for Hong Shuang, right?" Lu Yin asked.
Wang Wen nodded. "Yes, Hong Shuang entered the mirage domain. I searched for her many times, but I couldn't find her. She wasn't simple, and she didn't want to come out. Either she took a path of no return, or she was waiting for an opportunity. So …" His smile became even brighter. "I gave her a chance."
"That's why the Above Heaven Sect was so glorious," Lu Yin finished.
Wang Wen nodded. "I brought glory to the Above Heaven Sect, but it wasn't enough to attract Hong Shuang. So, I brought you Eternity."
Eternity had been created by Wang Wen, and he had obtained the power of the Death Universe through bone grafting. Its flesh had come from humans, and its bloodline had come from an unknown divine power. Thus, Eternity had betrayed humans, betrayed Wangmo, and betrayed Deathly Stillness. Finally, it had gone to the Tian Yuan Universe and overthrown the Above Heaven Sect.
Wang Wen had done everything silently. If Eternity had been born in the Tian Yuan Universe, Hong Shuang would have been on guard. This was his caution, which had led to everything that had happened later.
"Eternity overthrew the Above Heaven Sect and brought disaster to the Tian Yuan Universe. Although there were some accidents, such as that mysterious Eternity and your master, Mister Mu, their appearance made everything more exciting and real."
Wang Wen sighed. "It's all part of the plan. It's not good if everything goes according to plan. Only when there are accidents will there be surprises, right?"
"But Hong Shuang still hasn't appeared," Lu Yin said.
Wang Wen was helpless. "Yes, she hasn't appeared. I thought that she might have gone against the ancient times, but that path can't be rashly pursued. What if it's fake?
She created the illusion of going against the ancient times to lead me there. Then, it won't be easy for me to return. This is actually the main reason why Hong Shuang left during the War of Nine Bases and entered the mirage domain.
"She's very smart. She knew that I would make a move, so she lured me away in advance. Otherwise, Nine Bases would have been even more miserable."
At this point, Wang Wen glanced at Samsara Palm.
