Even a one-in-a-thousand, or even one-in-ten-thousand chance, means far fewer deaths compared to a true period of darkness and upheaval!
However, these are your true, most fundamental secrets. Aside from the supreme beings within these forbidden zones, only Lin Yang and the ruthless one know them.
Therefore, in the eyes of the world, these supreme beings of forbidden zones are extremely ruthless, often launching dark disturbances and capturing all living beings; they are truly evil to the extreme!
Recalling the events of the past few years, the ruthless woman nodded. Now, she somewhat understood Lin Yang's meaning.
Periodically instigating dark upheavals is like disinfection, eliminating humans, demons, and ancient races that have caused significant damage to the world. At the same time, it provides a powerful deterrent to the living, motivating them to fight and struggle!
It is precisely because of this that, in just over two hundred thousand years, a mortal immortal like the Great Emperor Wushi, a half-step seventh-order peak like the Azure Emperor, a group of sixth-order peak Great Emperors such as the Western Emperor, and nine consecutive Great Accomplished Sacred Bodies such as the Nine Sacred Bodies were born!
(At this point, they had basically all reached the half-step seventh level of cultivation and were undergoing a transformation.)
"Back then, the first time you chose Void, you became his personal grandfather, and as a result, Void became an emperor. The second time, you found the Western Emperor and, while she was still weak, directly gave her a branch of a peach tree. You also crafted a system for her, and then she benefited from it."
"The third time, you found the son of the Western Emperor, the Innate Holy Body Dao Embryo Wushi, and gave him a Chaos Stone and a Dao Scripture that you personally wrote. As a result, he even went directly to the Underworld while he was still alive and learned the whole truth." At this point, the ruthless man couldn't help but laugh.
Over the years, although Lin Yang and the ruthless man have not been very flamboyant, some clues can still be found if one searches carefully.
Therefore, back then, Wushi followed these clues and searched all the way, and discovered the strange things about the dark turmoil.
Then, he stormed into the various forbidden zones and beat up the supreme beings there one by one. At that time, he already had a hunch, so he held back during the battle.
Finally, finding an opportunity, he wanted to wipe out all the supreme beings of the forbidden zones in one fell swoop. Helpless, Lin Yang had no choice but to guide him into the underworld, where his mother, the Western Empress, and his father, a Great Accomplished Saint Body who had already died once, would persuade him and reason with him.
"Ahem, that's Wushi after all. The innate holy body and Dao embryo are not just empty words. It's comparable to the Chaos Body. When he was a Quasi-Emperor, he caught an Emperor's weapon with his bare hands and fought against the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone. How many people throughout history have had such combat power?" Recalling Wushi's almost audacious idea, Lin Yang smiled bitterly.
Wu Shi's approach was actually quite simple: since there was something fishy about the Forbidden Zone Supreme Being and the Dark Turmoil, he would simply eliminate all the Supreme Beings at once, and then the mastermind behind it would surely emerge, right?
Then, he got his wish and successfully met his deceased parents. After learning the whole truth, he could only sigh and remain silent.
"Later, you found the Azure Emperor and gave him the Desolate Tower, a lotus seed of the Golden Lotus of Merit, and a lotus seed of the Black Lotus of Destruction. Ten thousand years ago, when he died, you also gave him a lotus seed of the Red Lotus of Karmic Fire. Now, what are you planning to do with this Ye Fan?" The ruthless man suddenly smiled and said.
"Should I continue to be your constant companion, or should I offer you magical treasures, cultivation techniques, opportunities, merits, or good fortune?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yang felt that ever since the ruthless man's brother was resurrected, she had become more and more lively and clingy to him. However, this was a good thing, wasn't it?
At the same time, Lin Yang looked up at the sky and said, "It's coming! The Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin is about to begin. The curtain of destiny is being drawn back once again. This time, it will be an unprecedented era, and also the opportunity for the world itself to completely recover to the mid-stage of the Heavenly Realm!"
"And this Holy Body is the protagonist destined by fate! In the days to come, this child will surely turn misfortune into good fortune and avert disaster. He is the kind of person who falls off a cliff and finds a treasure, or stumbles and picks up a spiritual treasure." Looking at the extremely powerful sea of fortune above Ye Fan's head, Lin Yang couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"Of course, this doesn't mean that others can't attain enlightenment; it just means that their chances are the highest! Others also have a glimmer of hope through their own efforts!"
------------
Chapter 81: The Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin Officially Sets Sail, the Curtain Rises.
Rumble
With an enormous roar, the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin set sail once more, carrying more than thirty Earthlings on a journey to find the myths and legends.
Where is this place?
"Who will save us?"
Where will we end up?
"A ghost! A ghost!"
Looking at the panicked ordinary people in front of him, the ruthless man was puzzled and asked directly.
"Feipeng, what are you doing this for?"
"Of course it's for the sake of the Heavenly Dao. The true Heavenly Dao can naturally dictate the fate of all living beings, and it wouldn't be wrong to say that the Heavenly Dao controls the fate of all living beings."
"Back then, I first guided the void, giving it opportunities and benefits. At the same time, I secretly guided the ancient race to become his enemies, creating an opportunity for them to achieve enlightenment. That time, I succeeded and I failed."
"Success means that I have attained enlightenment and become an emperor in the void. Failure means that, despite my arrangements in many places, I still failed to grasp the true meaning of destiny."
"After all, breaking through to the seventh rank and achieving the position of Taiyi Daojun requires transcending the river of time, so that one is no longer affected by time and achieves true immortality!"
"To break through to the eighth rank and become a Great Luo Dao Ancestor, one needs to transcend the River of Destiny. My current experiments can be considered to be barely related to destiny. The more experiments I conduct now and the more I understand, the easier it will be to break through when I reach the Immortal Emperor realm."
"So, although I wrote a system for the later Western Emperor, you were the one to arrange her life, so that you could also understand what fate is. Later, Wu Shi was just too strong. Before I could finish arranging things, he broke through all the pre-set scripts."
"As for the later Azure Emperor, his origins were not simple either. He was transformed from a Celestial King of that time, and in essence, he was no less powerful than me. As you know, the result of arranging his life was that he failed once again."
At this point, Lin Yang was also somewhat troubled. Although two or three hundred thousand years had passed, Lin Yang still only had some clues about the knowledge and laws concerning fate.
However, an idea has already emerged: to control the fate of all living beings and arrange their lives. Lin Yang believes that when he can achieve this, it may be the time for him to attain the Great Luo Dao.
However, this path is incredibly difficult. So far, with the help of the Book of Life and Death and the Jade Disc of Creation, Lin Yang has only been able to precisely arrange the fates of ordinary people, and roughly arrange the fates of those in the Sea of Wheels, Dao Palaces, and even Dragon Transformation cultivators.
As for the Dragon Transformation and Sendai realms above them, the gap is quite large, with a significant margin of error; at most, they can only provide guidance.
Even so, through these experiments, Lin Yang's strength has advanced by leaps and bounds over the years, and he has long since reached the pinnacle of the Mortal Immortal realm. If he were not limited by the world itself, he would probably have already become an Immortal King or even a Quasi-Immortal Emperor.
"Fate? Does fate really exist?" the ruthless man pondered seriously.
To be honest, before this, she never believed in anything like fate. She only believed in her own hands and her own hard work.
However, when she witnessed Lin Yang controlling the lives of ordinary people time and time again, even arranging their joys and sorrows through wealth, illness, official career, and beauty, she no longer thought that way.
"Fate, perhaps it exists. If you believe it exists, it exists! If you believe it doesn't exist, it doesn't exist. This is a very idealistic concept. Just like when I influence a person's life through wealth, official career, beauty, or illness, aren't every step and every outcome just the choices of ordinary people themselves?"
"It's like I arranged for a beautiful woman to enter the life of a lecherous man. Even though he had a wife, he still cheated on her. At the same time, I guided his wife to see a newspaper article about a mistress, which caused her to come home a little earlier than usual and discover the affair. Then, they got divorced."
"Although I arranged this, in the end, didn't they make their own choices to have the corresponding results? If the lecherous man suddenly reforms after the beautiful woman appears, wouldn't my arrangements be useless?"
