Who brought this guy into the monastic circle?.

According to Di Liuxin's account, these monstrous forms were created by celestial beings who also planted methods to control them.

"Do you think this method includes arbitrarily controlling life and death?"

Yin Wang suddenly spoke out unexpectedly.

These words sent a chill down the spines of those who heard them.

Everyone present thought of the same thing: both of these celestial beings started out by betraying the Heavenly Dao, and now they were planning to overthrow the Heavenly Dao and take the throne themselves.

How could He possibly repeat the same mistake, or give others the opportunity to oppose Him?

Therefore, the best approach is to lay the groundwork for arbitrary domination.

"I suspect the Faceless Ones are probably much the same."

Yin Wang then speculated that they had personally witnessed that being descended upon Yan Yi.

They can take away even the body at will, let alone control life and death.

This also helps to understand why the celestial beings would choose to trust the things they created rather than choose them.

“This world does not allow for the creation of perfect things. Celestials are also born in this world. Do you think they also need to abide by this rule?”

The old Taoist priest suddenly spoke, as if a flash of inspiration had struck him.

Wuxian immediately understood and continued, "When we made our plans, we used the Heavenly Dao and all living beings to restrain the Heavenly Dao, because the Heavenly Dao comes from all living beings, and weakening all living beings is the same as weakening the Heavenly Dao."

The Way of Heaven is the embodiment of all living beings; when living beings suffer calamities, the Way of Heaven cannot escape them either.

Quan Xiaotong clearly understood as well, especially since his ideas were even bolder.

"The celestial beings created these monsters. Conversely, if we were to eliminate all of these monsters, wouldn't we also be able to severely injure them?"

"The idea is bold, but it's worth considering."

Yin Wang glanced at the other party with admiration, his expression showing a hint of appreciation.

Even when the group attacked Yan San together, he was still able to recover despite suffering such terrible damage.

But these creatures shouldn't have such abilities; such vigorous vitality can't exist without anything to rely on.

Strength should have a source, not be rootless.

Yan San and his group, as well as ordinary Faceless Ones, all have one thing in common: almost limitless vitality, which is quite debatable.

If such vitality exists, the physical body should not be so fragile.

Just look at Han Yu to understand this; his vitality is equally terrifying to the extreme. The six people who were in charge of his rescue not long ago felt this deeply, not to mention the people in Zhongzhou.

The reason he possesses such terrifying vitality is because his physical body is extremely strong.

With Han Yu's case as evidence, it is actually quite easy to discover the abnormality of the Faceless Ones.

"That's right!"

The spirit suddenly spoke, looking thoughtful.

It just remembered something: "The dog and I tried to use the plundering rules to deal with the monsters on both sides, but strangely, we couldn't take anything."

This has always been a question in its mind. The two of them, one human and one spirit, have killed hundreds of monsters with the Hexi Slash, but they have gotten nothing.

"So, could we infer that their power all comes from the celestial beings?"

Quan Xiaotong suddenly spoke, and what he said was shocking.

However, upon closer examination, it makes sense. This can indeed explain why the rules of plunder cannot obtain anything, because they do not hit the mark at all.

These guys are merely using power, not possessing power themselves.

That's what's truly terrifying.

"I never imagined that they wouldn't even let people possess their power."

Yin Wang and Wu Xian and the others changed color in shock. This was terrifying to think about. It turned out that they not only wanted to destroy the world, but also to lock their power in a cage.

Everything can only come from His gift.

No, it should be called charity.

Isn't this going too far? Is it because they feel guilty?

They fear that one day they will repeat the same mistakes they themselves made.

"Based on the existing conditions, perhaps eliminating these monsters could actually harm the Celestials."

Yin Wang seemed to be deep in thought. If that's the case, then it doesn't seem like there's no way out.

It's true that Yan Yi and Jingzhe's group are troublesome, but those monsters below are not!

With this group of people gathered together, it wouldn't be impossible for them to surround and kill these monsters.

"But Yan Yi and Jingzhe's groups are troublesome."

Wuxian couldn't help but remind them that, for example, right now, they didn't dare to show their faces at all, for fear that both sides would attack.

They cannot withstand a battle at this level.

Those who could withstand the slightest resistance are still unconscious.

Judging from Han Yu's outburst that day, he was indeed capable of causing great harm to the opponent.

However, the cost was quite high, and he almost lost everything.

Therefore, everyone simply ignored this method.

It's too difficult to implement; we need to separate these people and deal with them one by one, and we also need to risk our lives.

"If Han Yu could obtain the luck, just how much stronger would he become?"

Yin Wang couldn't help but shift his gaze to the artifact spirit, who was probably the one who understood the matter best.

The spirit frowned and pondered this point.

To be honest, it's hard to predict Han Yu's every leap in strength, and it's really difficult to explain why.

No one knows how strong Han Yu will become if all his luck is satisfied.

"At least, unless the celestial beings intervene, we should be able to protect ourselves." It dared not make any grand pronouncements, for fear of making any mistakes.

This group of lunatics dares to drag it into all sorts of trouble just because it made a boast. If they keep exaggerating, who knows what crazy things might happen next.

"Then it's worth taking another gamble."

Unexpectedly, even on a small scale, it still boosted the confidence of this group. Yin Wang spoke first, and then the others seemed to be deep in thought.

"Why don't we reconsider?"

Quan Xiaotong looked up at Yin Wang. The two had already had an in-depth conversation before they arrived. If it weren't for Di Liuxin's matter interrupting them, they probably could have continued talking.

"We really should consider this; this luck might truly be the key to breaking the deadlock."

Wuxian nodded in agreement.

A group of people started talking all at once, leaving only Di Liuxin sitting on the ground, looking lost and dejected.

He now probably truly understands the fact that he is a fool; he has no other schemes, nor the strength of others.

They were used as mere tools, and now they've ended up like this.

"Then wouldn't all my cultivation have been lost for nothing?!"

He stammered, feeling wronged, asking why the other three could betray him while he was the only one who got hurt.

He also wanted to betray them and reclaim his cultivation!

Unfortunately, as soon as I looked up, I found that the once crowded place was now deserted; the group of people had left without me even noticing.

But they didn't even have time to care about him.

For a moment, sobs echoed once again from the dimly lit cabin.

He cried like a child thousands of years old.

……

When Han Yu woke up again, he found himself lying next to the curb, with the wise old man beside him looking calm.

"Have I been asleep for a long time?"

He couldn't help but be startled and jumped up.

"It's alright, your body has already returned to the Endless Sea."

The wise man knew what he was worried about and explained with a smile.

Han Yu breathed a slight sigh of relief and then sat down next to the wise old man.

There was a moment of silence between them, and finally the wise man spoke first.

"Are you very tired?"

This is probably one of the very few times that the Wise Old Man has had such a serious conversation with you.

Han Yu fell silent for a moment; it would be a lie to say he wasn't tired.

From initially thinking that he would just let things slide, he gradually started to help Zhongzhou.

He was getting deeper and deeper into it.

Looking back, he went from a small-time pharmacist who had to travel around producing pills just to survive to a thorn in the side of the celestial beings.

He single-handedly helped Zhongzhou prolong its life until now.

He was exhausted; he was truly exhausted.

"The debt of gratitude owed to you by all living beings in this world is so great that even the Heavenly Dao cannot bear this karmic burden."

The wise old man spoke with a moved expression.

Han Yu jokingly asked, "You guys aren't going to try to turn a favor into an enmity with me, are you?"

The wise old man, however, had no interest in joking with him today. With a strange expression, he asked, "What if Heaven were to abdicate in your favor?"

Han Yu was indeed startled, leaping off the curb and exclaiming, "Stop giving me empty promises! I don't care about this lousy spot; whoever wants it can have it!"

If the spirit were here, it might fall for the old man's tricks, but he would never be fooled.

He couldn't even understand whether the position of Heavenly Dao, which he fought so hard for, was really that good.

The wise old man spoke with a half-smile, "What if you could have that position anytime you just asked?"

Should Han Yu rob him?
No need!
He is backed by the Heavenly Way and supported by all living beings; both the realms of life and death are willing to submit to him.

The wise old man even found it laughable that the two celestial beings had spent nearly ten thousand years plotting and painstakingly seeking a position, only to have such a young man appear and obtain it so easily.

Of course, he didn't really think Han Yu had it easy, but compared to the other two, Han Yu ultimately had the upper hand.

"Forget it, I don't want that spendthrift's stuff. I'll just wait for Zhongzhou to overcome its difficulties and then I'll live my own life."

Han Yu shook his head.

Sometimes he felt sorry for this spendthrift son, who had been tricked into this state, unable to even stay in the Soul Realm and forced to run away.

There's no need to compete with it for its things.

Sometimes it's not a matter of whether you want it or not, but that you have no choice but to have it.

The wise old man suddenly sighed.

Just like Han Yu at the beginning, didn't he also want to stay out of it? But what was the result?
Can he do it?
"If one day, the Way of Heaven is gone, tell me, if you don't step up to take its place, who will?"

This is no longer a question of whether Han Yu wants it or not.

Han Yu looked surprised and quickly interrupted the other party.

"Don't scare me, you idiot. I was hoping to find a powerful backer to enjoy the shade and live a comfortable life."

What does it mean that the Way of Heaven has disappeared?

Is this something you can just talk about?
Aren't you afraid of karma?
"Would you like to truly understand the Way of Heaven?"

The wise old man suddenly smiled and asked. (End of Chapter)
