While the giant was an Ortuser, that gave him no advantages against this little freak who had not yet even become a sequence Progenitor. Just how had the kid trained?

Lu Yin stared at the ancient giant and remembered his time as Ye Bo when he had visited the Immemorial Citadel’s battlefield. The massive arm that had captured Qi and later fought against Yuan Qi was probably this giant.

“Senior, please deal with the Ossis Ark.”

The super giant looked out from the Immemorial Citadel. “Understood, give me a moment.”

The massive figure then turned to look down below. “It’s over. The moment you joined Aeternus, you were removed from our clan.”

With that, the giant clenched his fists and smashed them down with a great deal of strength.

The Immemorial Citadel trembled, and enormous fissures cracked open.

Underground, Corpse God\'s skull shattered. He was completely dead.

The ancestor of the super giants sighed and left the Immemorial Citadel, making his way towards the Ossis Ark.

Lu Yin moved towards the Origin Progenitor, deep beneath the Immemorial Citadel. Right as he moved away, a round item, much like a seed, flew up from where Corpse God had died and shot toward the black Mother Tree.

Corpse God\'s body was completely gone.

His body had been made by True God’s Eternal Decree.

That seed was the seed of Eternal Decree.

Lu Yin turned around and saw the seed. He rushed over to grab it, only for it to disappear and reappear right in front of True God.

Yong Heng looked at the seed. “The first one.”

Lu Yin frowned at this. “Don’t kill any of the resurrected people. Capture them.”

True God\'s expression remained calm. There were no emotions at all on his features.

Lu Yin had already sensed that something was wrong. Each of True God\'s three ultimate techniques served a unique purpose. Lu Yin had learned that Corpse God and the others had been resurrected by True God’s Eternal Decree. However, when they died, they did not leave a corpse behind, but a seed instead. That was clearly a problem.

Lu Yin could only try to prevent the other resurrected people from also becoming seeds.

After taking a long look at True God, Lu Yin continued on to the depths beneath the Immemorial Citadel to speak with the Origin Progenitor.

Beside the Origin Progenitor stood a man named Yi Wei. He was the Origin Progenitor’s first line of defense, while Mu Zhu was the second.

Lu Yin intended to return the bits of Primaldust to the Origin Progenitor, but when he saw Yi Wei, Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed. "It\'s you?"

Yi Wei looked confused. "Have we met?"

Lu Yin stared at the man for a moment before shaking his head. "No, we haven\'t."

He then continued walking slowly towards the Origin Progenitor.

The Origin Progenitor looked at Lu Yin. "Pillar, you’re here."

Yi Wei chuckled. "Pillar?"

Lu Yin sighed. "Origin Progenitor, my name is Lu Yin."

"I know, Pillar. You\'ve done well. Without you, the Immemorial Citadel would have fallen." The Origin Progenitor\'s voice echoed in the chamber.

Lu Yin sighed. Suddenly, his hand struck out at Yi Wei and fell on the man’s head. Yi Wei reacted quickly—he was someone qualified to protect the Origin Progenitor—but Lu Yin had anticipated the reaction. With overwhelming strength, Lu Yin dispersed the sequence particles as they appeared and settled his hand onto Yi Wei’s head.

Yi Wei instinctively moved to stand in front of the Origin Progenitor, where he glared at Lu Yin.

The Origin Progenitor watched as Lu Yin took action against Yi Wei and calmly remained holding onto the sequence strings.

“What’s your relationship with Ancient God?” Lu Yin asked. He had seen Yi Wei before, though Yi Wei had never seen Lu Yin.

When Lu Yin had been fishing in the River of Aeons in the Mirari Realm, Infinity had brought up scenes from the past related to physical strength. Among them had been one of Ancient God fighting an opponent. The battle had ended with Ancient God knocking his opponent unconscious but not killing him. Instead, the man had been thrown to a parallel universe.

That person had been Yi Wei.

Lu Yin had not expected to meet the man in the Immemorial Citadel. There were only two possibilities for why Ancient God had spared the Yi Wei’s life. The man was either working with Ancient God and had betrayed humanity, or there was something wrong with Ancient God’s defection to Aeternus. Why else would the man have spared Yi Wei?

The fact that Yi Wei was guarding the Origin Progenitor made Lu Yin fear the worst, that the man was a spy for Aeternus and had been placed close to the Origin Progenitor in order to eventually attack him.

Of course, this seemed highly unlikely, as the man should have already attacked. Still, given the situation, Lu Yin could not afford to take any chances. He needed to first get Yi Wei under his control.

Yi Wei glared at Lu Yin. “Gu Yizhi?”

“I saw Gu Yizhi spare your life and throw you into a parallel universe,” Lu Yin stated.

Yi Wei then understood. “Ah, so it was you we sensed back then. You watched our battle through the River of Aeons.”

“You knew?”

“Gu Yizhi told me.”

Lu Yin was stunned, and he stared at Yi Wei.

The Origin Progenitor spoke up. “Pillar, let him go. He’s not a problem.”

Lu Yin turned to the Origin Progenitor as he slowly released his grip. “Is there something wrong about how Gu Yizhi joined Aeternus?”

The Origin Progenitor sighed. “All of my disciples are excellent, and that includes Musclehead.”

“He’s being controlled by True God,” Lu Yin stated.

The Origin Progenitor nodded helplessly. “Yes, and because of that, many sacrifices have been made.”

Lu Yin finally understood. There had always been a human spy within the Seven Skygods; this was undeniable. This was why Blackless God’s fake betrayal of Aeternus had been believed, as he had been believed to be humanity’s spy. It turned out that the truth was very different. Blackless God had been acting on True God’s orders all along, waiting for the perfect opportunity to turn on Lu Yin and the others. Humanity’s real spy within the Seven Skygods had always been Ancient God, Gu Yizhi.

Lu Yin had considered many possibilities, but he had never suspected Ancient God. As one of the most powerful humans during the Heavens Sect era, why had Ancient God deliberately joined Aeternus? Without his betrayal, humanity would have likely been in a much better situation in the present era. After learning that Ancient God was being directly controlled by True God, Lu Yin had found it even harder to suspect that the man was a spy.

How could someone controlled by True God possibly be a spy?

Even True God could have never expected such a thing.

And yet the truth was that Ancient God really was a spy. He was the highest-ranking human spy in all of Aeternus: the leader of the Seven Skygods and one of the Three Pillars of the Three Pillars and Six Skies.

Just what was the man’s goal?

Humans were a peculiar species. Their weaknesses were quite obvious, but so were their strengths.

When humans had risen up to be the pinnacle species in the megaverse, they had consequently been able to see farther and had unconsciously started aiming higher. In doing so, they had failed to notice the sinister shadows that lurked in the corners. That had led to the destruction of the Heavens Sect at the hands of Aeternus, with the Mainlands being destroyed one by one.

However, every time humanity faced a dire situation, someone had always stepped up. No matter the cost, either through power or wisdom, someone had always managed to find a way to make up for what had been lost.

The human spirit could be summarized quite succinctly: inheritance and sacrifice.

When humanity first appeared in the megaverse, they had already been destined not to be a fleeting presence.

“Gu, what is Senior Gu Yizhi’s goal?” Lu Yin asked.

Sadness filled the Origin Progenitor’s eyes. “He wants to expose the truth.”

“What truth?”

“The truth behind the destruction of the First Mainland. The truth about how I lost to the Boundary Guardians.”

“Senior Gu Yizhi knew that you were attacked by the Boundary Guardians?” Lu Yin asked.

The Origin Progenitor looked back at Lu Yin. “He didn’t at first. He was a pure man. When the Heavens Sect was destroyed and the Mainlands were shattered, one after another, the ones who benefited the most was Aeternus. After I disappeared, Musclehead felt that only Aeternus could be responsible. At this realization, he abandoned everything, even his Third Mainland. He allowed it to be destroyed by the Aeternals. He betrayed humanity and joined Aeternus just so that he could find me.

“By the time I learned what had happened, it was already too late. He had chosen to be controlled by Yong Heng just so he could unveil the truth behind my disappearance. He could not believe that anyone in the entire megaverse could be a match for me, not even the combined force of the Boundary Guardians.”

Lu Yin could not hold back his own question. “And the truth?”

The Origin Progenitor smiled. “He was both right and wrong.

“The Boundary Guardians? Just four worthless fools. They’re Ortusers who aren’t even worth their names. Their attack on me was a joke—they were never my match. They couldn’t even overcome my Verdant Eternity. Musclehead wasn’t wrong about that. What he was wrong about something else: my defeat had nothing to do with Aeternus.

“Big Thug was the first to realize the truth, as he personally experienced what it felt like to have that being’s attention focused on him.

“That being, I call it-”

“The Fated One,” Lu Yin interjected.

The Origin Progenitor nodded. “Yes, the Fated One. It’s a fitting name. That existence is fate. They stopped me from breaking through to the Immortal realm. When those four fools attacked me, the Fated One ensured their success. My hands were bound, which forced me to sever them in order to survive. If not for Old Mu, I would have died.

“Speaking of which, Old Mu is quite experienced. He’s encountered a Fated One before.”

Lu Yin was surprised. “My master?”

“Yes, your master. He’s not from our megaverse. His own was destroyed during a final battle that humanity lost. According to him, if a Fated One hadn’t intervened, he would have broken through to become an Immortal at the last moment and reversed the situation. Sadly, he still lost.

“I truly admire him. Even after losing to a Fated One, he managed to escape and has kept his current strength. I lost to a Fated One and was forced to cut off my hands and only barely survived. I owe your master my life.”

This exceeded all of Lu Yin’s expectations. He finally understood what had happened when the First Mainland had been destroyed.

The Boundary Guardians had attacked the Origin Progenitor, and Wu Tian had arrived during the battle. He had felt the chilling sensation of the Fated One’s attention, and the Origin Progenitor had thrown Wu Tian away so that he would not get too close.

The Fated One’s interference had led to the Four Locks Array sealing the Origin Progenitor’s hands. The man had been left with no choice but to sever his own hands in order to survive. Fortunately, Mister Mu had arrived and taken him away.

Garan Zhiluo had arrived after the Origin Progenitor was taken by Mister Mu. She had seen the aftermath of Tian Feng’s actions and tracked that creature down, only to be sealed within Tian Feng.

The destruction of the First Mainland had started the fall of the ancient Heavens Sect.

This was the harsh truth behind the First Mainland’s destruction.

Everything stemmed from that being, the Fated One.

Ancient God had chased after the truth behind the Origin Progenitor’s disappearance. He had gone after Aeternus, betrayed humanity, and even chosen to be controlled by True God, all in order to uncover the truth and find the Origin Progenitor.

“How long did it take Senior Gu to learn that you were in the Immemorial Citadel?” Lu Yin asked.

The Origin Progenitor thought for a moment. “He was brought here by the Delivery Shrub.”

“The Delivery Shrub?” Lu Yin was confused, but then something clicked. “The big, running tree?”

The Origin Progenitor chuckled. “Yes, it is quite good at running. That tree was planted here in the Immemorial Citadel, and it is able to use the city’s flames and travel between battlefields. Those who are destined can be brought to the Immemorial Citadel by that tree, which has preserved humanity’s legacy.”
