Fate is predetermined.
If a person reaches the age of thirty and still doesn't believe in fate, that person has poor comprehension and will never amount to anything in their life.
The saying goes, "First is fate, second is luck, and third is feng shui." This is a summary by the ancients, and it is all based on certain principles.
Some say this is metaphysics, something ethereal and unreal. But how much of this world is real?
What you see, hear, and think are all within the scope of your cognition.
You will never understand things that are outside your cognitive scope.
For example, there are ghosts in this world.
Most people wouldn't believe it.
Because they've never seen a ghost, they don't have that knowledge.
Only those who have seen ghosts believe that such things truly exist in this world.
Lin Yu is someone who has opened his third eye, so naturally he believes in ghosts and gods.
Putting aside everything else, Banbuduo, in the eyes of the world, is actually the underworld.
The beings of the demon realm live there.
But Lin Yu knew that it was not the underworld.
After the collapse of the ancient primordial world, the underworld and the world of the living were separated.
Banbuduo is similar to the underworld, responsible for absorbing negative energy from the human world, but it is not the real underworld.
To reach the true underworld, one must cross the River of Oblivion.
There are two rivers in this world that mortals cannot see. One is the Heavenly River, which is in the Heavenly Court, but it has now been cut off.
In the hidden realm of Changbai Mountain, they were able to see the Milky Way, which had stopped flowing.
Even Lin Yu had never seen the River of Oblivion.
Only the eldest sister, Li Fengzhi, knew.
Lin Yu decided to go to the underworld in order to break free from the demons in his heart.
"Ling Shuang, wait for me..."
On the vast East China Sea, Lin Yu stood on the surface of the water, whispering to himself.
At this moment, he was heading towards Japan.
That's right, Hokkaido.
There is a damp, dark cave there.
A fallen god dwells there.
Even a fallen god is still a god, because it is an ancient god in a broader sense.
They are far superior to the immortals of today.
If we ask those who aspire to immortality, how many of them can preserve their physical bodies after achieving immortality?
Almost all of them transformed into the Tao, becoming mountains and rivers.
In reality, this kind of enlightenment is not true enlightenment, but rather it is absorbed by the Heavenly Dao.
They couldn't defeat the will of Heaven, so they had no choice but to join it if they couldn't win.
How terrifying is the Way of Heaven!
Even with human cultivation reaching its limit, it is impossible to break through it; one can only achieve harmony between humanity and nature.
That's right, it's like being eaten by the heavens!
My God, it's cannibalistic!
"The Blue Heaven is dead, the Yellow Heaven shall rise!"
This slogan would be shouted whenever a new dynasty was established.
In reality, the sky is still the sky; no matter who changes it, it remains the same sky.
This is the way of humanity, the humble way of humanity, forever residing below the way of heaven.
Whoosh!
Just as Lin Yu approached the Japanese island, a giant wave surged toward him.
Above the waves, a stunningly beautiful figure, dressed in royal robes and emanating black mist, stepped out.
"You've come!"
"I am coming!"
You shouldn't have come!
"But I came anyway!"
Lin Yu's expression was cold as he faced Long Yuzhenzi.
Because he knew that the person in front of him was possessed by a 'god'.
The person who possessed him was none other than the ancient, fallen golden crow, now the supreme deity of Japan, Amaterasu.
"Lin Yu, let's go back!"
Mako Longyu spoke, her voice slightly complicated. Although possessed, she still retained some say and could speak.
She wanted to persuade Lin Yu to go back, because she knew how terrifying Amaterasu was. That surging divine power was constantly flowing through her body, almost bursting her apart.
"Zhenzi, I'm sorry, but I have to kill it today, and no one can stop me!" Lin Yu said firmly.
He might feel a little guilty towards this woman, but from a nationalistic standpoint, he felt absolutely no sympathy for her.
An enemy is an enemy.
Amaterasu and the ancestors of the human race, the Wa and the Daxia, were destined by fate to have only one ending.
That is, it's a fight to the death!
"I still love you, I don't want you to die!!" Long Yuzhenzi cried out in anguish.
Even though Lin Yu hurt her, she still didn't want to be his enemy.
Even if we can't be lovers, we don't need to fight to the death!
Lin Yu remained silent, his mind made up.
"Do you know that Amaterasu is a true deity? You are no match for her!" Ryuko pleaded desperately.
"True God?"
Lin Yu scoffed, "You're giving him too much credit! All the Golden Crows of the past have perished, shot down by the ancestors of Great Xia. From that time on, they ceased to be gods! Even if a few escaped and are still alive, they are only worthy of being called ghosts, not gods! Because we in Great Xia have an unwritten rule—true gods do not possess the bodies of mortals!"
"So, what's there for me to be afraid of, a ghost?" Lin Yu said with an arrogant expression.
"Insolence!! Xuanyuan Ce, you are courting death, courting death!!" Long Yuzhenzi's voice suddenly became very sharp, and her expression also became ferocious.
Yes, Amaterasu was enraged.
He originally didn't want to fight because he wanted to wait for the right opportunity.
Lin Yu had already seen through all of this. He sneered, "Amaterasu, for thousands of years, you have been inciting your descendants to invade my Great Xia. It is clear that your hatred for the shooting down of the sun has not diminished in the slightest! Thousands of years have passed, and you have been hiding in the earth cave absorbing the essence of fire and yang. You must have recovered some of your cultivation! I believe that at this moment, with this possessed body, the outcome between us is fifty-fifty. But you are still waiting, waiting for the right opportunity!"
Long Yuzhenzi remained silent for a moment, then spoke in a hoarse voice, laughing sinisterly, "I didn't expect you to find out! That's right! Actually, I was waiting for the Lizardmen's Dome attack. When your Bingdong City couldn't hold out, you would have no choice but to send your divine bow over. Without the enhancement of the artifact spirit, you would definitely be no match for me!"
Lin Yu shook his head. "You're overthinking it. Even without the divine artifact, I'm still not afraid of you. The outcome between us is still 50/50!"
"Oh? Is that so? So confident?" Amaterasu sneered, her tone laced with mockery and disdain.
Lin Yu sighed and said, "Your possession battle will consume a large amount of the host's essence. After this battle, Long Yu Zhenzi will surely die! She once did me a favor, and I just couldn't bear to do it... However, now, with great calamity looming and our human race beset by internal and external troubles, I must make a choice and can't delay any longer! In addition, after killing you, I still need to go to a place. Before leaving, I must also kill you to eliminate future troubles! So no matter what, I must take action today!"
Longyu Zhenzi nodded, her voice hoarse, "In that case... let's fight! I have waited ten thousand years for this battle!"
"I used to live in a magnificent palace. If it weren't for you humans, how could I have fallen to this state, neither human nor ghost, utterly devoid of dignity?! Roar—"
In an instant, divine power erupted, as if the entire continental shelf was shaking!
At this moment, the black aura that had been surrounding Longyu Zhenzi gradually solidified, and two enormous wings appeared behind her, slowly unfolding. Each wing was so real, like black gold, with a black luster, and within that blackness, there were specks of gold light, making it look incredibly sacred!
