Chapter 1196 Another Test
It is most appropriate to entrust the meritorious person who brought back Nuwa's spirit to the care of the Manifestation Saint True Lord.

On the one hand, the Manifestation Saint True Lord doesn't have much to do on a daily basis, so he can take good care of himself. On the other hand, he is quite powerful, so he has a high probability of being able to solve any tricky problems he encounters.

This high-ranking god was given the title of "Salvator of Calamities".

He was a powerful figure from the Lingdu Mountain sect, a top-tier high-level god with a divine power level of A. When he was alive, he could dominate the Three Realms and Six Paths with his formidable strength.

Even the Celestial King had to give him some face.

But who could have imagined that a single operation would cost him so much?

It is said that in the past ten years, Duzai's feet have barely touched the ground. Even with the most powerful divine strength, he can only spend the last part of his life in a pathetic state.

Lin Yi had actually thought this through carefully; it seemed that things were not as simple as they appeared on the surface.

With Lin Yi's intelligence, he could analyze it roughly.

With so many subordinates at his disposal, why didn't the Celestial King choose to send powerful figures from other factions to Nuwa's Spirit Realm?

Risk and reward are directly proportional. Anyone with a brain knows this. Nuwa's Spirit is a divine artifact left behind by an ancient god. Its power is incomparable to ordinary weapons. Going there will definitely be more danger than good.

The fact that Lingming Ancient Buddha, the most trusted confidant of the Immortal King, was sent with his most elite troops to retrieve Nuwa's spirit speaks volumes.

Most importantly, even Lin Yi knew that as long as his innate laws were not destroyed, he could spend time and effort to reshape his physical body.

That guy who can overcome disasters
Of course, Lin Yi had no interest in verifying these things; what he cared about most was Du Zai.

"Hmm, I understand. Why are you telling me all this? You specifically came to report to me. It can't be just a simple report, can it?"

True Lord Manifestation, worthy of his current status, immediately guessed what the Immortal King was thinking.

The divine soldiers bowed to both the Manifestation Saint True Lord and Lin Yi.

"True Lord, the Immortal King's intention is for me to take the corpse away. Both his personal space and the equipment he carried are rare treasures to us gods. In particular, the equipment of Lord Duzai is top-level equipment that cannot be replicated."

When they say it's impossible to replicate, they're most likely referring to the enhancement level of that set of equipment.

With the destruction of Azure Star, no living beings remained. The secret of equipment enhancement naturally disappeared along with Azure Star into the long river of history in the Colorless Realm.

This point doesn't need much explanation; the Manifestation Saint True Lord already knows it.

He naturally understood the Celestial King's actions.

"Alright, take the remains with you, but what about the soul? That guy's soul shouldn't be so easy to destroy, considering how powerful he was in life."

These words from the Manifestation Saint True Lord confirmed Lin Yi's suspicions.

The decline of the Lingdu Mountain sect was indeed not so simple.

There must be many hidden reasons behind this; otherwise, why would the souls undergoing calamity be given special treatment?

Isn't this just because they're afraid of saying things they shouldn't during the disaster relief?

"The Celestial King said that in order to ensure that Lord Duzai's reincarnation will be smooth in the future, you must personally go to the Netherworld to send Lord Duzai's soul."

Okay, okay, I just wanted it to be confirmed.

In the future, reincarnation will be unobstructed. Why not just send someone to deliver the souls of those suffering calamities? Why make the Manifestation Saint True Lord go in person? Is there anyone in the Three Realms and Six Paths who dares to rob a Celestial King?
Putting aside whether anyone would dare to do it, let's assume that a powerful being could snatch something from the hands of an ordinary subordinate of a Celestial King. Would he then try to steal the soul of Du Zai?

The soul of the one who survives the calamity is a very rare material. What great things can one do with his soul, or can it enhance one's own strength?

No, not even the most ordinary divine soldiers could escort it without any problems. Who would be so bored as to try to steal the soul of the one who is about to be afflicted with disaster? Would they be trying to get themselves into trouble?

Even someone with an intellectual disability wouldn't do something like that.

It's obvious that Duzai must have obtained some information that the Celestial King didn't want the world to know.

Upon hearing this news, the True Lord of Manifestation immediately showed displeasure. In recent years, he had rarely been in charge of matters within the ranks of the gods.

He usually steps in to help resolve major issues.

Clearly, the Manifestation Saint True Lord had no intention of doing such a trivial matter as escorting souls.

"What, is there no one else you can trust to do this besides me? You're not kidding me, are you? It's just a matter of moving a few steps, can't you even do something this simple?"

Upon hearing the reply from the Manifestation of the True Lord, the little divine soldier was speechless with embarrassment.

You see, this is in front of Lin Yi, and he knows what he can and cannot say.

If Lin Yi finds out that the Immortal King betrayed his old employee, the consequences will be unimaginable.

It should be noted that the Lingdu Mountain faction consists of veteran members who have made great contributions. In addition, Lin Yi possesses the skill of Piercing Heaven's Brahma Sound. If he finds out about the Lingdu Mountain faction's plight and tells the other gods about it, the situation that has finally stabilized might start to destabilize again.

"Um, True Lord, well, you know, Lord Duzai's strength is quite..."

How could the Manifestation Saint True Lord not know what this little divine soldier wanted to say?

He immediately waved his hand and pointed to Lin Yi beside him.

"Just let him go. He's quite capable, and there shouldn't be any problem entrusting this matter to him. Just tell him the precautions."

The little soldier was dumbfounded when he heard this arrangement.

Just as he was about to explain the implications, the Manifestation Saint True Lord took out his communication device and requested to communicate with the Immortal King.

The results came quickly.

The Celestial King supports the decision of the Manifested Sage.

Although the little divine soldier found it unbelievable, he still led Lin Yi to the place where Du Zai died.

"Tell me, what do you mean?"

The conversation between the Celestial King and the Manifested Sage True Lord did not end.

After Lin Yi left, the Immortal King began to ask questions.

The fact that the Celestial King chose to believe Xian Sheng Zhen Jun without fully understanding his plan demonstrates Xian Sheng Zhen Jun's status within the ranks of the gods.

"Don't you distrust him? Letting him do this is the most suitable thing for you. With your current prestige and power, even if everyone knows you'll discard him after you've served your purpose, so what?"

"It was Lingming who couldn't distinguish between the two kings first. No matter what, you have a reason to take action. Why bother thinking so much? On the contrary, that little guy has a limitless future. Whether he chooses to side with you or chooses to stand on the side of that insignificant justice is more important to us, isn't it?"

Upon hearing the explanation from the Manifestation True Lord, the Immortal King on the holographic projection revealed a satisfied smile.

He really hadn't considered this.

Sometimes, it's not that we don't want the hassle, but rather that we lack the resources to make mistakes.

"Now that you mention it, I'm actually quite looking forward to it. I'm curious to see what kind of result that little guy will give me."

The place where Du Zai died was not far from Cepheus.

Led by the divine weapon, Lin Yi arrived at his destination in about twenty minutes.

It was a planet shrouded in ethereal mist, where a towering iron tower stood amidst a cluster of buildings.

This iron tower, in both its shape and color, is completely out of place with the surrounding buildings, as if it did not belong here.
