Space.

"……I?"

Galan pointed at himself in confusion.

"Jialan is the backup plan?" Lin Qiye frowned and asked, "Why have you never mentioned this to me?"

"To be precise, the backup is the [Immortality Pill] in Jia Lan's body." Monk Su Ming said slowly, "Back then, Ling Bao Tian Zun specially refined a pill to resist this catastrophe. Although it was later destroyed by the [Key to the Door], two parts of the pill with residual medicinal power were still preserved... That is, the [Eternal Life Pill] and the [Immortality Pill]."

"I know everything you said, so what?"

"It's just half a pill. After swallowing it, you will immediately have super strong defense power at the level of God Ruins, as well as super strong healing power that will make you immortal... In a sense, this is the first and last example of 'man-made forbidden ruins' in the world.

And the most important thing is that after this pill is swallowed, it will not be digested at all. In other words, the so-called [immortality] and [eternal life] are all the power obtained by the human body from the pill, and it is impossible to completely integrate it into the body... Do you know why this is the case?"

"Why?"

"Because, these two pills were not meant for human consumption from the very beginning."

Jia Lan was stunned. "If it's not for people to eat? Then who is it for? God?"

"No, it's for..."

The Fateful Monk pointed somewhere. Lin Qiye and Jia Lan turned their heads at the same time, their eyes narrowed slightly.

The shattered kingdom of God is struggling to stand on the moon.

"Heaven?"

"To be precise, it is the origin of heaven." Monk Fate paused for a moment, "And that pill was not originally called [Eternal Life Pill], its name... is [Eternity].

The original intention of Lingbao Tianzun to refine this pill was to integrate it into the origin of Heaven. In this way, Heaven would become a super kingdom of God that could move freely and possess both the characteristics of [immortality] and [eternal life], or in other words... an eternal kingdom of God.

The origin of Heaven will not be able to be destroyed, and it even has a strong ability to self-evolve.

If Lingbao Tianzun really refines the [Eternal Pill] and integrates it into the origin of the Heavenly Court, then the Heavenly Court will become the most powerful kingdom of God in the world! Even the Heavenly Kingdom under the leadership of Yelande in the past is not comparable at all. "

“To endow the Kingdom of God and the Origin itself with Wangxu-level abilities?!” Shock emerged in Lin Qiye’s eyes.

He knew that Lingbao Tianzun refined this elixir to resist the great catastrophe of heaven and earth, but how could one elixir resist the gods... Lin Qiye didn't know.

"The Key to the Gate foresaw the future after the Eternal Heaven appeared, so He was determined to destroy it at all costs, and He succeeded.

The [Eternal Pill] was split into two, one part retained the [Immortality] characteristic, and the other part retained the [Eternal Life] characteristic. There was no way for it to be absorbed by the Origin of Heaven, and Lingbao Tianzun's 'Eternal Heaven' plan failed.

But he did not give up completely. Instead, he kept the two pills in the Yaochi Forbidden Land and asked the Queen Mother of the West to keep them safe. You all know what happened next."

Lin Qiye nodded thoughtfully.

No wonder the Queen Mother of the West had such an ambiguous attitude towards the two pills. On the one hand, she asked Jia Lan and others to keep the pills, but on the other hand, she said that if they encountered a crisis, they would rather destroy the pills than let them fall into the hands of the enemy...

[Eternal Life Pill] and [Immortality Pill] are indeed important trump cards of the Heavenly Court, but they are also bad cards. No one can guarantee that they can play a role in the future, but they cannot be handed over to others.

"So, the back-up you're talking about is..."

"Now that the origin of the Heavenly Palace has been damaged and its body is in pieces, once it is unable to suppress those things under the moon, both the Great Xia God and human society will be crushed by them." The monk's voice was extremely heavy.

"The only way out now is to rebuild the Eternal Heaven and completely suppress them before all this happens!"

When the monk Fate finished speaking, his eyes, as calm as the water of a lake in winter, stared at Jia Lan indifferently.

"We need your [Immortality Pill]."

“But I can’t take out the [Immortality Pill] either.” Jia Lan said in a low voice, “If it could be taken out, the Queen Mother would have taken it two thousand years ago, unless…”

Galan seemed to have thought of something and stood there in a daze.

"Unless, I turn you into an elixir." The fateful monk added the second half of the sentence lightly.

Hearing this, Lin Qiye's pupils suddenly contracted.

In the air, he suddenly grabbed the monk's collar, his voice trembling.

"Do you know what you are talking about?!"

Monk Fate seemed to have guessed Lin Qiye's reaction long ago, his expression did not fluctuate at all, "I know."

"She is Jia Lan! She is my fiancée! We have waited for each other for two thousand years, and finally came to this point... Now you tell me that you want to refine her into a pill?!!"

Lin Qiye's roar echoed in the fateful monk's mind, and a powerful pressure burst out!

The Great Xia God, who was in the melee around him, had no idea what was going on, but when he saw two identical "Lin Qiye" tearing each other apart, he was filled with confusion.

"It doesn't matter who she is... Since we are playing chess, we always have to give up some pieces, right?"

"She's not a pawn!!!"

"Of course she is a chess piece! Do you think that because you were clever and didn't give her the white chess piece, she would be able to stay out of the game?!" Monk Fate also roared in response, "From the moment you fed her the [Immortality Pill] two thousand years ago! She has become a chess piece!

No matter how much you want to push her away, she can't leave this chessboard! This is her 'destiny'!

You chose the 'fate' for her yourself! ! "

Lin Qiye stayed where he was.

In his mind, the scene of the heavy snow that day when he took the opportunity to stuff the Immortal Pill into Jia Lan's mouth flashed quickly...

But what could he do then?

Watching Jialan die with my own eyes? Even if I managed to save her, I would have to watch her die of old age in the past two thousand years, turning into a handful of yellow earth, and never see her again from now on?

There is no such thing as destiny in this world. From the very beginning, it is a predetermined cause and effect...that is, fate.

"Lin Qiye, you should know very well what kind of opponent we are facing." The Fateful Monk's voice calmed down, "Do you think that the Cthulhu Mythos can be easily overthrown by just Li Yifei and a few powerful humans who survived the Western Han Dynasty?

If you want to win this game of chess, it is not enough to rely on surprise attacks... Since it is a game of chess, the sacrifice of chess pieces is inevitable."
