"He passes all of my criteria?" Lu Yin was surprised.

Kui Luo started raising fingers as he continued, "First, Xia Zhitong’s from Shenwu\'s Sky, which gives you a connection there. You’ll be Shenwu\'s Sky\'s son-in-law, which will allow you to openly go and rely on them. That’s one, right?”

"Second, do you know how Yu City was first founded? They sell the Mother Tree’s bark. Many of the citizens of the city travel to the Lower Realm to collect bark, which is something that you also need.”

"Third, the entire reason why Shenwu\'s Sky wanted Xia Zhitong to marry Young Master Yu is because the Yu family used to support the Lu family."

This last bit of news caught Lu Yin off guard. "They supported the Lu family? Then why weren’t they just wiped out?"

Kui Luo explained, "Because Young Master Yu\'s father betrayed the Yu family. After the Lu family was exiled, but before the four ruling powers moved against the Yu family, the previous city lord, who had always supported the Lu family, was eliminated by his own son. So, Young Master Yu\'s father arrested his own father before personally sending the old man to the four ruling powers. That old man should currently be part of the Star Alliance.

"Also, Xia Zhitong was sent to marry into the Yu family because the family acted too decisively. The four ruling powers have always suspected that the capture of the previous city lord was just a trick, so they sent Xia Zhitong to Yu City. The woman has always had a terrible reputation, and Shenwu’s Sky couldn’t tolerate her actions, but didn’t want to deal with her. So, they sent her to act as a means to control the Yu family."

Lu Yin felt like he needed to ask something. "Why do you know so much about the Yu family’s history?"

Kui Luo sighed. "The four ruling powers never gave up on trying to catch me, and things got worse after the Lu family was exiled. Luo Zhe was locked up in the Crimson Garden, while I escaped. However, I was seriously injured, and I ended up on the Bifrost. I spent some time recovering in Yu City. Young Master Yu helped me, so after recovering, I returned to visit the city a few times. Honestly, he even killed himself right in front of me."

"You didn\'t stop him?" Lu Yin was surprised.

Kui Luo sneered. "It was what he wanted. To start off, he fell for Xia Zhitong the first time they met, and he even followed her straight to her bed. It was after that that he agreed to marry her, and there was no point in trying to stop him. Shenwu’s Sky didn’t even try to force things—everything that happened was the kid’s own fault. Even if Young Master Yu was good looking, he really was a piece of trash. He never bothered to spend time cultivating, and even though he was a man, he was a sucker who was basically the perfect target for bullies.

"He was too passive and wasn’t decisive at all. His only redeeming trait was that he was kind, but unfortunately, that’s not something that brings any benefits to people."

Lu Yin clasped his hands behind his back. "You never considered helping the man get revenge?"

Kui Luo shook his head. "Helping will just bring suffering onto whoever offers it. The Yu family’s already done for, so there’s no reason to help them."

Lu Yin laughed. While Kui Luo had not helped the Yu family, he was basically trying to set things up so that Lu Yin would help the family recover. The only thing was, given the old man’s abrasive personality, he would never be willing to openly admit such a thing. Lu Yin was quite familiar with Kui Luo, and he understood what the old man wanted, despite his words.

This was also why Lu Yin did not try to clarify anything further. "Does anyone other than you know that Young Master Yu is dead?"

"Absolutely not. I watched him kill himself, and no one else was around. However, there’s probably some rumors going around about what happened to him."

Lu Yin stared at Kui Luo. "If you two didn’t have any real friendship, then why did you happen to be the only one with him when he killed himself? Was it really just a coincidence?"

Kui Luo twitched. "Yep. Just a coincidence."

"Fine, I\'ll pretend to be Young Master Yu. Right, what\'s his full name?" Lu Yin asked.

"Yu Hao."

Lu Yin nodded. "I want you to go with me to the Perennial World. You know everything about that place, and you can also help me get away if anything goes wrong."

"Kid, let’s be honest: there’s almost no chance that you’ll be able to whisk anyone from Star Alliance or Crimson Garden away from under the four ruling powers\' noses. Are you really sure that you want to take this risk?" Kui Luo asked solemnly.

Lu Yin nodded. "Everyone in Crimson Garden belongs to my Lu family, while the Star Alliance is filled with powerhouses who are still loyal to my Lu family. Those people all need to be brought here. As long as I get back here, I don’t need to fear anyone from the four ruling powers. Those people have waited and suffered long enough."

"They’ve waited this long, so waiting a bit longer won’t matter. It wouldn’t be too late for you to wait until you become a Semi-Progenitor to go save them," Kui Luo suggested, "I know the hidden power of the four ruling powers better than anyone. Almost all of their top powerhouses are in the Dominion Realm, but that doesn’t mean that the four ruling powers are helpless to do anything to you. You don’t understand the power of a Progenitor."

"Yes, I do," Lu Yin countered.

Kui Luo blinked. Right, Lu Yin had access to Progenitor Chen\'s power.

Lu Yin let out a breath. How could he not understand the power that a Progenitor could wield in the universe? If a Progenitor actually moved against him, there was no chance that he could escape from the Perennial World. Still, there were certain things that could not wait any longer. If he waited until he became a Semi-Progenitor, or even a Progenitor, to make a move, then the people in Crimson Garden and Star Alliance might all already be dead by then. On top of that, the four ruling powers could not afford to leave the New Corridor broken, so that path would be repaired soon. When they discovered that the army that they had sent to deal with Lu Yin had all been captured, they would attack Lu Yin once again.

The best choice was to move before the four ruling powers learned anything. Lu Yin had the best chance of saving people, and as long as he was able to return to the Fifth Mainland, he would be invincible.

He had faith in the Mask of Death’s ability to keep him hidden. As long as he did not run into any Progenitors, Lu Yin was confident that no one would be able to see through him.

His first task upon arriving in the Perennial World would be to stand guard as his senior brother Qing Ping broke through and became a Semi-Progenitor. With Kui Luo, Progenitor Smoke, and Lu Yin all standing guard, there should not be any problems. After that, Lu Yin would become Young Master Yu.

The Bifrost, Yu City, and Shenwu\'s Sky. Lu Yin was coming for them.

…

A few days later, Lu Yin raised his hand, and his die spun slowly in front of him. He only had a few more days before he needed to meet up with Qing Ping in the Neoverse, which meant that this was his last opportunity to roll the die. Regardless of whether or not Lu Yin succeeded in rolling Possession and learning about the humanoid sourceboxes in the Astral Beast Domain and Skymender’s ultimate plan, Lu Yin needed to go to the Perennial World.

As he thought about this, Lu Yin tapped his die, activating it. It slowly came to a stop on four pips.

The only options for Lu Yin in his Timestop Space were to continue practicing the Cosmic Art and reciting the Origin Sutra. He had already received the sixth level of the Cosmic Art from Elder Gong. He would need to simulate 380,000 stars to completely master this level.

It was a terrifying number, as it was nearly four times more than what he had needed to learn to master the fifth level of the cultivation art. Lu Yin had no idea how long it would take him to achieve mastery of the sixth level.

Regardless of how long it would take, all he could do was continue to practice.

Almost a year later, Lu Yin emerged from his Timestop Space. He raised his hand, brought out his die, and watched as it slowly came to a stop after he tapped it. Five pips. Useless. Again. Six pips.

Lu Yin’s eyes lit up briefly before his mind entered the strange dark dark space.

Just like the previous time, he could not find any bright balls of light nearby.

After becoming an Envoy, Lu Yin’s cultivation speed had not slowed at all, but had rather accelerated. In particular, creating the new power that sat in his chest had caused his overall power to spike, as it gave him the strength to stand up to monsters with power levels of a million. Just how many people in the universe had that level of strength?

Lu Yin felt that he might have burned through all that star essence during his last Possession not only because of the Possession itself, but also because of how long he had taken to find a target to merge with in the dark space.

For this reason, Lu Yin moved as quickly as possible while searching for an optimal target.

Some time later, he came across a particularly bright orb. It was brighter than any he had ever integrated with in the past. Judging by Lu Yin’s own strength, this light should represent a seven or eight-tribulation powerhouse, which meant that they were at the same level as Elder Jiu Shen, or even the Second Nightking.

Lu Yin knew that he would benefit greatly from Possessing anyone at this level of power.

He shot towards the orb of light without any hesitation. Even though it would be a struggle to Possess this person, it was not necessarily impossible. It would be best for him to find a way to succeed.

There was a mental bang that rattled Lu Yin\'s mind. He could not see any light. Then, he was hit by a wave of nausea and vertigo. It felt as though the world was spinning.

"Are you injured?" A cold voice entered his ears. This was a voice that Lu Yin would never be able to forget. It was a voice that haunted his dreams. It was Blackless God\'s voice.

Lu Yin’s eyes snapped open, and his vision was filled with a pair of deep eyes. They seemed to possess the depths of the universe itself, and three pitch black lines crossed each other to form a star. These penetrating eyes were very familiar to Lu Yin; they were Blackless God’s eyes.

These eyes had appeared in more than one of Lu Yin’s dreams before. This person was the first of the Seven Skygods that Lu Yin had encountered, and he had not even known who the Seven Skygods were at that time. Lu Yin had interacted with Shaman God more than any other Skygod, but the next on that list would be Blackless God. This was the first person whom Lu Yin had truly feared. No, the first creature. Lu Yin could not be sure that Blackless God was even a person.

"Do my words surprise you that much? That’s not the reaction that you should be having," Blackless God continued in his cold voice.

At this moment, Lu Yin was unable to see Blackless God at all. All that could be seen were those disturbing eyes that replaced space itself as memories started to pour into Lu Yin’s mind.

His face twitched, as he realized that he had Possessed Tian Dou. On top of that, Tian Dou was actually cooperating with Blackless God.

Was this surprising? Honestly, it was no surprise to Lu Yin. He had never trusted the Specter clan at all.

When the Xie family had persecuted and tried to eliminate the Specter clan, they had eventually teamed up with the rest of the Seven Courts, as well as the Hall of Honor to eliminate the Specter clan. In order to survive, the Specter clan had turned to Aeternus.

Later on, when Lu Yin had succeeded in using the Arcane Art—Fatal Revival, and then revealed the God of Death Transformation, which had indicated that he could create death energy, the Specter clan had declared their loyalty to Lu Yin. Everything that they had done had been attempts at survival.

There was nothing inherently wrong with a strong survival instinct, and anyone facing the Specter clan’s situation might do the same thing. After all, who did not want to live and find a path to survival when facing the threat of annihilation?

Finally, when Jue Yi had awoken in the current era and brought out the traditional methods of the God of Death from the Heavens Sect era, the Specter clan had not hesitated to follow the ancient powerhouse. Of course, this was partly due to the fact that Lu Yin’s death had been confirmed, but even more importantly, the Specter clan believed in Jue Yi. Silver might have been willing to openly betray Jue Yi during the Dao Chosen selection, but the Specter clan would not dare to do the same.

Jue Yi was currently the gatemaster of the Undying Heavenly Gate, and the Specter clan remained hidden in Gaia\'s Swamp like beaten dogs, not daring to expose themselves anywhere.

Lu Yin had never liked the Specter clan. No matter how powerful their mastery of death energy might be, he simply did not like them.

This was why, upon Possessing Tian Dou, Lu Yin was not surprised to learn that the man was once again cooperating with Blackless God. However, Lu Yin was quite curious as to how Blackless God had managed to return to the Fifth Mainland, as well as what the Skygod was planning with Tian Dou.

Memories continued to pour in, and eventually, Lu Yin\'s eyes regained clarity, though they quickly turned cold.

Blackless God spoke up. "Your only chance to become a Progenitor is by abandoning the power of the God of Death and cultivating the divine energy of Aeternus’s True God. Even if the God of Death is still alive, he is nothing more than a stronger ant to our True God. Even the Origin Progenitor has fallen, so what of the Three Realms Six Dao? Why do you still hesitate?"

Lu Yin remained calm and expressionless.
