I am the one running the game

Chapter 734: Tracking the Prophecy and Divination

"I accept your deal." After careful consideration, Lu Xingshi finally agreed to the request of the Great Master of Destiny's remnant soul.

The main reason was that he learned from the remnant soul of the great fortune teller that Ling Zheng also used "The Book of Earthly Gods Subduing Demons" and "The Picture of Heavenly Gods Conquering Demons". According to the protagonist's character, the potential and value of this set of fortune books and fortune maps must be very high.

This means that the remaining soul of the Great Fortune Master did not lie, and this book of destiny and diagram of destiny may really contain clues higher than the Great Fortune Master.

When the remnant soul of the Great Master of Destiny heard Lu Xingshi's words, he couldn't help but feel relieved.

"Okay, I will give you my destiny book and destiny map and cooperate with your experiments and research. You can resurrect me afterwards and erase all my memories after I wake up." The remnant soul of the great destiny master finished his request in one breath.

Lu Xingshi nodded: "No problem."

Speaking of breaking one's promises, Lu Xingshi rarely did, except when facing enemies.

In Lu Xingshi's eyes, the remnant soul of the Great Master of Destiny has transformed from an enemy into a temporary ally. When the other party is no longer valuable, the remnant soul of the Great Master of Destiny will become a stranger.

Unless the other party becomes hostile to Lu Xingshi again next time, don't blame Lu Xingshi for being cruel and ruthless.

The two reached a consensus, and the remaining soul of the Great Master of Destiny quickly passed his inheritance to Lu Xingshi.

Lu Xingshi listened carefully, and soon he realized that it was no wonder that Ling Zheng had obtained this inheritance, it was indeed extraordinary.

The Book of Fate is consistent with the Fate Chart, and it does involve a level above the Great Fate Master as the remnant soul of the Great Fate Master said.

His name is the Master of Destiny, and all those he has helped to achieve are extraordinary. Legend has it that he is a legendary figure who led an era and remade the world. The Federation has changed 26 times so far, and there is only one person like him who can break through from a Great Master of Destiny to become a Master of Destiny.

From this, Lu Xingshi understood in an instant that if he wanted to become a master of destiny, it was probably not something that could be achieved by talent, hard work, or resources, but rather required destiny.

That was the destiny that was originally stripped away from Lu Xingshi.

It is equivalent to an internally determined level. If you are not the protagonist and do not have a destiny, then you can only be a fortune teller for your entire life.

And if Ling Zheng had not died at the hands of Lu Xingshi, he might have had a chance to reach the level of a destiny master.

Unfortunately, Lu Xingshi also has it now. He has taken back his own destiny, even if it is only one-third of an incomplete version, but it is still destiny.

However, Lu Xingshi wanted more. He not only wanted to complete his destiny, but also wanted this world to die!

"The 'Book of Earthly Gods Subduing Demons' and 'Book of Heavenly Gods Subduing Demons' that you passed down to me are of great value to me. Thank you very much." Lu Xingshi said gratefully.

In fact, he also understood that if he had not regained the destiny from Ling Zheng, the remaining soul of the Great Destiny Master would most likely choose to die rather than surrender, rather than choosing to exchange his life for the inheritance.

After all, the golden finger of this destiny comes from the remnant soul of the great destiny master, his personal grandfather. The compatibility is still very great, which is why the remnant soul of the great destiny master is willing to hand over the inheritance to save his life.

"No need to thank me, this is a deal between you and me." Although the remnant soul of the great master of destiny handed over his inheritance, he still did not have much good feelings towards Lu Xingshi.

Before this, he had always regarded Ling Zheng as his successor. How could he not hate Ling Zheng when he died at the hands of Lu Xingshi?

Destiny cannot directly distort the thoughts and emotions of the Great Destiny Master's remaining soul. At most, it can only make some insignificant differences in ideas.

However, just this little difference is enough to change a lot of things.

"Okay, I wish you a happy cooperation." Lu Xingshi did not dwell on this matter too much, but changed the subject: "Next we will proceed..."

He chattered endlessly to the remnant soul of the great fortune teller about the research to be conducted next, while preparing the equipment and materials needed for the research.

But when he was halfway through, he suddenly felt a chill, as if something was passing over him and taking a peek at him.

He had experienced this feeling before. In the fairy world, when the Yin-Yang Emperor Xu Yi used the props given by the sign-in system to predict and divine him, he had this feeling.

But the feeling this time is not even one-tenth of the original one.

"Does fate have the ability to predict and divination?" Lu Xingshi asked.

There is a great fortune teller right in front of him. Even if he is just a remnant soul, his understanding of the power of fortune tellers is actually deeper than Lu Xingshi's.

What Lu Xingshi understood was the nature of fortune tellers, not the structure of their power.

"Yes, the destiny of a fortune teller is not only about fighting and killing, but also includes many auxiliary destiny."

"It's just that this kind of fate is relatively rare, and even fewer people can become great fortune tellers."

"After all, if you want to become a great fortune teller, you need to use your fate to devour the fate ghosts to make fate ink to draw fate maps."

"If you don't have enough force to protect this process, how can you become a great master of destiny?"

“But there are exceptions to everything. It is not so absolute. After all, there is the art of fate to supplement it.” The remnant soul of the great fortune teller explained to Lu Xingshi.

When Lu Xingshi heard this, he was certain that a fortune teller was looking for him through his horoscope.

"Very good, we have to move next." Lu Xingshi knew that there were only three forces looking for him, the Qiu family, the Huangfu family, and Qiu Wen's master, the great fortune teller.

Now Lu Xingshi is at a critical juncture in his research and doesn't have much energy to confront them head-on.

Once he has perfected his own fortune-telling system, it won’t be too late to turn around and kill these people.

It is always the most satisfying to crush the weak in a game. As for swinging the knife at the strong? He can grow stronger than the strong, so why fight with them when he is weak.

In terms of improvement speed, the fortune teller system is far inferior to the professional system. However, compared to the quick-learning professional system, the fortune teller system seems to have a higher upper limit, especially when the destiny is predetermined.

"It seems that the Huangfu family and the Qiu family have begun to take action against you."

"You made the right choice to dodge." The remnant soul of the great master of destiny understood what Lu Xingshi meant in an instant.

If Ling Zheng had been as gentle as Lu Xingshi, he might not have died.

"That's right, but we have to find a way to block this kind of prophecy and divination, otherwise we won't be safe anywhere."

"Do you have any solution?" Lu Xingshi asked.

"There are quite a few fate techniques that can conceal it, but you don't have the channels to obtain them. I remember the past, but now I am just a remnant soul. I have lost a lot of memories, so there is no way to obtain them."

"But you can try the fate technique of death substitution."

“Ling Zheng got it in exchange from the Destiny Organization. The Destiny Organization had no idea how powerful this destiny technique was and just regarded it as useless.” The remnant soul of the great destiny master spoke with sarcasm. In the ancient federation era where he lived, every destiny master had to carry a destiny technique to save their lives.

The reason is very simple, the function of this technique of replacing one's own fate is to replace the position of oneself and the fate.

However, in the Federation of this era, the fortune teller is more like a summoner. If you really can't win, it won't be your turn to exchange with the fate, because the fate would have been killed long ago.

So whether there is a substitute for death or not actually has no meaning.

"Well, okay. You teach me first and I'll pack my things." Lu Xingshi agreed first. In fact, he knew that whether he could use the art of fate was another matter.

But I'm just sitting there anyway, so if it really comes in handy, that would be the best.

As for not being able to use it, you can change it later.

It's mainly about the art of death-substitution, which is similar to Lu Xingshi's immortality based on his fate.

Maybe it can be used to improve it.

The remaining soul of the great fortune-teller began to teach Lu Xingshi the art of dying in someone else's place. Fortunately, Ling Zheng went to him for advice after he exchanged it, otherwise he would not have known it.

In fact, the remnant soul of the great fortune-teller was not very willing to teach Lu Xingshi. He did this to save his life.

Lu Xingshi is willing to keep his promise and can also resurrect him.

But if he fell into the hands of the Huangfu family, the Qiu family, or even other great fortune-tellers, they might not be as kind as Lu Xingshi.

At least until now, Lu Xingshi has been relatively friendly, and he knew very well the character of the big families when he was alive.

Or to put it more simply, he was once part of a big family. It's not that he experienced it, but he did these things as a carnivore.

...

"Master Zhuang, the person has been found, and the location is here." The head of the Huangfu family handed over a note with a specific and detailed location written on it.

Zhuang Fang glanced at the note and wrote down the address. A cold light flashed in his eyes. "Very efficient. Let your Huangfu family arrange it for me, so that I won't cause any unnecessary trouble when I take action."

Now that the person has been found, he must take action immediately.

Only by killing Lu Xingshi can he give an explanation to the Qiu family.

As for what to do with the Huangfu family? That's not something I should care about.

"Don't worry, Master Zhuang. The Huangfu family will get it done for you." The head of the Huangfu family paused when he said this: "But my Huangfu family has to intervene in this matter, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the Qiu family."

Zhuang Fang wanted to say, "It's none of my business," but he sensed a sharp breath watching him.

This is the elderly master of destiny of the Huangfu family. As it involves the survival of the Huangfu family, the head of the Huangfu family even invited the other party out.

If he dared to leave the Huangfu family behind and take the credit to atone for his sins alone, then the great fortune teller of the Huangfu family would definitely fight him to the death.

He still has plenty of time left to live, so how could he possibly fight with an old and dying person? Whether he wins or loses, he will lose.

Finally, I could only say: "Okay!"

It will be a fight to the death for no one.

After he agreed, the sharp aura that was spying on him slowly disappeared.

This made Zhuang Fang feel relieved. It was precisely because the Huangfu family still had such a great fortune-teller ancestor who might die at any time that the Qiu family did not take action personally, in order to prevent the other party from becoming desperate.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. If they are forced into a corner and bite them, the Qiu family will not feel good either.

Zhuang Fang was facing the same situation, which forced him to compromise.
