There was no logic to Lu Yin’s conclusion. It was just a feeling. The Origin Progenitor should be able to overcome Dukkha. If not, the entire concept of overcoming Dukkha would lose all meaning.
When Lu Yin had first learned what law of the universe the Origin Progenitor cultivated and had felt its nature, he had warned the old man to never reveal it. Despite that, for Lu Yin’s sake, the Origin Progenitor had just exposed himself.
“Just who are you?” the old man gasped as he stared at the Origin Progenitor.
The Origin Progenitor’s wounds swiftly closed as his sequence particles surged endlessly. While the man had not cultivated during the years when he had been suppressing the sequence strings, he had always possessed an incredible amount of sequence particles.
The nine weapons from the Verdant Arsenal circled the Origin Progenitor. “I am this child’s Dao Protector.”
Dao Protector?
The Origin Progenitor looked around. “Don’t go too far. Can you not see whose power this child wields?”
The old man frowned and looked over at Lu Yin. Whose power?
Had anyone else asked this question, he would have ignored them, but even Yue Ya felt the need to pay attention to the Origin Progenitor’s words.
When someone like this expert spoke, it was necessary to pay them heed.
Lu Yin glanced at the Origin Progenitor, and the old man gravely declared, “This child cultivates karma.”
“Greater Sancte Green Lotus?” Yanbo Hongli shrieked.
The other members of Ruler Garden exchanged glances before turning back to stare incredulously at Lu Yin as their suspicions mounted.
The old man’s expression fell. “What exactly are you implying?”
The Origin Progenitor snorted. “By the order of Greater Sancte Green Lotus, I serve as this child’s Dao Protector. In exchange, the Greater Sancte will guide me to overcome my Dukkha and enter the Immortal realm. This child is Greater Sancte Green Lotus’s disciple.
“He needs to experience tempering, but being besieged by so many of you is excessive.”
The old man turned to look at Yue Ya, and the cloud of manifested thought rippled. “Complete nonsense.”
The Origin Progenitor sneered. “Find someone else so young who can cultivate the power of karma.”
The power of karma was real. There was no denying it. Lu Yin had also comprehended it, which caused everyone present to be wary of him. Yanbo Hongli had even pitied the fact that Lu Yin had not been born in the Nine Odysseys Megaverse, as he would have likely become Greater Sancte Green Lotus’s disciple. But what were they suddenly hearing? Was he actually the Greater Sancte’s disciple?
Lu Yin calmly stated, “I’ve still not quite gotten there yet.”
The Origin Progenitor looked at Lu Yin and sighed. “It’s already sufficient. Your mastery of karma has reached the necessary level. I can now give an account to Greater Sancte Green Lotus.”
Lu Yin objected. “Only by surviving in the face of death can one fully master karma. I’m still not there yet!”
“You’re such a stubborn child.”
“I will become a Greater Sancte. I will not embarrass my master!”
“What wonderful ambition! Two Greater Sancti from the same line! Should I achieve Immortality as well, there will be three of us! Hahaha!”
“I like the sound of that.”
“I like it even more...”
The people from Ruler Garden just listened to the two men chat, too afraid to make any moves. They could not determine if this was the truth or a lie. Reasonably, everything should be lies, but how else could they explain Lu Yin’s mastery of karma? Throughout the Nine Odysseys Megaverse’s extensive history, countless geniuses had failed to comprehend karma. However, if Lu Yin really was the Greater Sancte’s disciple, then what explanation was there for the fact that he was from the Tianyuan Megaverse?
The old man observed the exchange with growing dread. What if it was true? They would be utterly doomed. Even if Yue Ya achieved the power of an Immortal, Ruler Garden would not be saved.
They were talking about Greater Sancte Green Lotus, the oldest being in the Nine Odysseys Megaverse, an Immortal with unfathomable strength, and someone who had cultivated karma. That’s right...
The old man continued to stare at Lu Yin. “Are you truly Greater Sancte Green Lotus’s disciple?”
Lu Yin coldly replied, “Since it’s already come out, there’s no need to keep it hidden. Yes.”
The old man’s eyes narrowed. “In that case, tell me: what is Greater Sancte Green Lotus’s great power?”
Every eye instantly focused on Lu Yin.
The Origin Progenitor gave Lu Yin a look that expressed his readiness to act. The Origin Progenitor had merely been buying time for them to recover before escaping.
Lu Yin replied, “The Heavenly Karmic Macrocosm.”
The old man’s eyes narrowed further. The ripples in Yue Ya’s cloud of manifested thought grew even more intense.
Lu Yin spoke with absolute confidence.
The Origin Progenitor had been ready to attack, but the expression on the old man’s face left the Origin Progenitor wondering. Surely the brat didn’t guess right, did he?
The Origin Progenitor gave Lu Yin an odd look. Really? Did the brat actually know? But how?
He remembered how Lu Yin had relied on his mirebound artifact to rise up in the Tianyuan Megaverse, Possessing his enemies and viewing their memories. However, Lu Yin had never Possessed anyone from the Nine Odysseys Megaverse, let alone an Immortal like Greater Sancte Green Lotus. This was also not information that any random conscient would know.
Truthfully, Lu Yin was also breathing a bit easier at this moment. It turned out that the person he had seen memories of in the Willbound Spire really was Greater Sancte Green Lotus.
“The Heavenly Karmic Macrocosm is not well known,” Yue Ya retorted. “But you captured Luo Ning. Given his status, it’s no surprise for you to have learned of it from him.”
The old man let out a breath of relief, only to suddenly start in shock. “He captured Luo Ning?”
Yanbo Hongli was similarly startled. Luo Ning had been in cryostasis in the Scion Spire. How could he have been captured in the Consciousness Megaverse?
Lu Yin barked a cold laugh. “You still don’t believe me? Fine.”
He proceeded to raise a hand and draw a picture in front of him. It was the face of a middle-aged man.
Yue Ya instinctively shrank back when he saw the man’s face, and even the Voidheart Mirror dimmed.
The old man’s pupils shrank. Is that Greater Sancte Green Lotus?
Yanbo Hongli and the others were completely confused, as none of them had ever laid eyes on Greater Sancte Green Lotus before.
