The power of destiny...
When Ye Feng activated his Divine Eye, he could see many lines in the void.
But he has never studied it in detail.
I never imagined that such amazing things existed in the world.
Since Yang Fan and Wugensheng were able to rise to the top through sheer luck, they must have mastered some method of using it.
If I can acquire more, the number of trading points needed for upgrading will likely be greatly reduced!
However, now is not the time to ask. We can study it slowly after we've dealt with Wugensheng.
When Wugensheng realized his methods had been exposed, he glared at Yang Fan with resentment, but then burst into maniacal laughter.
"Hehe... Hahaha... Unbelievable, unbelievable... A small Lingyu Realm could actually give birth to two Chosen Ones, but in the end only one can emerge victorious. Who will it be?"
Yang Fan smiled mockingly.
"Heh, whoever it is, it certainly won't be you, the reincarnation of an evil god!"
Wu Gensheng's eyes suddenly narrowed.
"A mere Nascent Soul cultivator dares to spout such nonsense in front of me? Once I kill Ye Feng, I'll make sure you pay..."
Wugensheng froze halfway through his sentence.
"What do you want from me? There are countless cultivators in the Yu Realm, how many can you kill?"
Seeing the expression on Wugensheng's face, Yang Fan's mockery deepened.
"Why are you silent? Continue! Let everyone hear what other declarations the evil god who wants to devour the Lingyu Realm has to make! Haha..."
Yang Fan laughed heartily.
Below the ladder, everyone outside was completely stunned.
Just moments ago, Yang Fan had also used his Qi to block out the sounds from above.
In contrast, Yang Fan's manipulation was even more seamless, and even Wu Gengsheng did not notice it, directly revealing his true thoughts in front of everyone!
Everyone below looked on with lingering fear.
"It really is an evil god..."
"We almost, almost believed it..."
"He truly is an evil god; his methods are so unpredictable!"
...
Seeing this, everyone who cared about Ye Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
With less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea remaining until the end of the Heavenly Ladder event, it seems this farce is finally coming to an end.
Wugensheng glanced at Ye Feng, then at Yang Fan, and finally said coldly,
"Ye Feng, your ability to manipulate others is a fact, and you can't hide this forever..."
As he spoke, he stood up and looked down.
"What I said before still holds true. I'm only targeting Ye Feng. Once he's dead and I take control of the evil god's true form, I'll naturally go to the Immortal Realm. At that time, the Heavenly Curtain will naturally disappear!"
"Even if you kill me, you still won't be able to control the true form of the evil god... At that point, whether the world is devoured or someone else takes over your body will be up to you!"
After Wugensheng finished speaking, his body began to disintegrate on its own.
"Hehe... Hahaha..."
Wugensheng's loud laughter before he disappeared left everyone with an incredibly heavy heart.
Killing Wugensheng wouldn't solve the problem of the evil god.
Even killing Ye Feng doesn't guarantee that what Wugensheng said is true.
The sun rose high in the sky, and the ladder to heaven gradually disappeared.
But there was no cheering or celebration below. Before Ling Fengxue could make an announcement, everyone dispersed with heavy hearts.
———
Inside the sky palace, the family reunited.
Ye Feng then invited Yang Fan to a private room.
"Junior Brother Yang truly lives up to his reputation as the chosen one of destiny. It hasn't been long at all, and he has already advanced to the Integration Realm!"
"Senior brother, there's no need to tease me. Compared to you, my cultivation speed is nothing."
Having advanced to the Integration Realm, Yang Fan's demeanor and manner of speaking have become vastly different from before.
In the past, even if there were deep-seated issues in my heart, they remained hidden, and my speech and behavior always revealed a sense of naivety and immaturity.
But now, he looks like a seasoned veteran... as if he has suddenly matured.
"Junior brother, could you tell me a thing or two about this matter of destiny?"
"Even if my senior brother doesn't ask, I will still tell him!"
Getting to the point, Yang Fan sat up straight.
"In fact, every world has its own destiny. The stronger a world is, the stronger its destiny becomes. Especially when a world is in peril, a chosen one is born to save the people from suffering and prevent the world from collapsing..."
At this point, Yang Fan glanced at Ye Feng with a somewhat strange expression.
"Logically speaking, shouldn't this chosen one be my senior brother?"
Logically speaking... according to the reasoning of Grand Immortal Xu Shunyan, he should be dead.
So it seems that I, this "outlier," am indeed outside the detection of Heaven's Dao.
"Junior brother, could you perhaps demonstrate the power of this destiny for me?"
Yang Fan nodded and closed his eyes.
At the same time, Ye Feng's eyes began to rotate, one gray and one white, radiating a captivating light.
In an instant, a cluster of orange lines appeared above Yang Fan's head...
These lines came from all directions, and in a short moment, the area above his head became an orange "sea".
At the same time, Yang Fan was completely enveloped in golden light, as if he were wearing a layer of "battle armor".
Yang Fan didn't seem surprised by the strange look in Ye Feng's eyes. He stood up and said to Ye Feng...
"The power of destiny is formless and intangible, yet it can grant divine assistance during cultivation, making breakthroughs and tribulations much easier and simpler. Furthermore, it can improve one's luck..."
There's no logic to luck.
Ye Feng was more concerned with how to use it and how to obtain more.
As if he had already guessed Ye Feng's thoughts, Yang Fan spoke directly.
"To gain more fortune, there are only two methods, one... is to directly kill someone with immense fortune!"
At this point, Yang Fan paused, and seeing that Ye Feng showed no sign of killing intent, he continued.
"Furthermore, it's about gaining greater influence in the world!"
Ye Feng lowered his head in deep thought.
Greater influence is not something we have time for right now.
Ye Feng now possesses roughly half the luck that Yang Fan has.
These sources are estimated to be 40% from shops located throughout mainland China, and the rest from rewards for reaching the top of the ladder...
"If killing people could grant one luck, wouldn't that be...?"
"Of course it's not that simple. If the person being killed has strong luck, they might not only fail to gain any luck, but could even suffer a backlash!"
Isn't this just like in the novel?
The assassination attempts against the protagonist always end up resulting in the villain's downfall for various reasons.
Before this, Ye Feng would definitely have scoffed at this idea.
However, the reduction in the number of trading points on the system panel due to the arrival of good fortune was entirely genuine.
"Junior Brother Yang! I need your luck to help me! But I don't need to hold onto it for long... just for a while!"
