348: Unprovoked Cause

Lin Qi Ye was drawn to the unknown ball of light before him, and he walked towards it step by step, wanting to touch that power.

“Is this my Forbidden Territory?” Lin Qi Ye asked.

The Little Boy nodded, “That’s right, but, to be precise, this is only a part of your Forbidden Territory.”

“A part?” Lin Qi Ye turned his head, looking at the Little Boy in disbelief.

Just standing before this ball of light, Lin Qi Ye had already felt a profound power.

He had never seen such a powerful Forbidden Territory, and Lin Qi Ye even guessed that if one day he could fully unleash this power, his strength might not be inferior to that of the God Ruins.

But now the Little Boy was telling him that this was only a part of his Forbidden Territory?

Then how strong would the complete Forbidden Territory be?

At this moment, the Little Boy slowly said, “Your Forbidden Territory is a pair of intertwined powers. It once had many names, but in your Night Watchers’ records, they are called ‘Uncaused Cause’ and ‘Fixed Fruit’.”

The Little Boy paused, then continued, “What is appearing before you now is the ‘Uncaused Cause’. It is not only a powerful force, but it also carries your past memories.

Of course, how much you can read depends on yourself.”

Hearing that his Forbidden Territory was related to Karma, Lin Qi Ye’s heart was filled with pleasant surprise.

“The ‘Uncaused Cause’? Then where is the ‘Fixed Fruit’?” Lin Qi Ye asked.

“The ‘Fixed Fruit’, hehe, haven’t you already seen it?” the Little Boy said with a smile.

“You mean… that monk who looks exactly like me?” Lin Qi Ye was surprised, seemingly understanding why the other party had attacked him.

“Exactly!” The Little Boy sighed and said, “Some things, when you see your memories, you will understand why he did that.”

“Then how do I get my Forbidden Territory back?” Lin Qi Ye looked at the enormous ‘Uncaused Cause’, a hint of hesitation in his heart. With his current strength, if he possessed such a powerful Forbidden Territory, he would probably explode, right?

“That’s your business, I can’t help you.” The Little Boy shrugged, “My mission is complete; the rest is up to you.”

With that, the Little Boy turned and left.

Lin Qi Ye hurriedly shouted, “Wait!”

But the Little Boy’s figure had already begun to fade, completely disappearing into the Void Realm.

“Sigh!” Lin Qi Ye sighed. He looked at the ‘Uncaused Cause’ before him, truly not knowing what to do next.

“To just drop the responsibility and say it’s up to me to solve it, isn’t that too irresponsible…

Solve it myself, but how am I supposed to solve it?”

Lin Qi Ye muttered to himself, thinking about how to obtain the power of the ‘Uncaused Cause’.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration crossed his mind.

Myself?

The current me doesn’t seem to be alone…

As Lin Qi Ye thought, a ripple immediately appeared in the dark spiritual space.

From the Void Realm crack, a figure suddenly appeared. Lin Qi Ye looked at the bald figure, a slight smile on his face.

“Hello, I am Lin Qi Ye! May I ask what the other me is called?”

"Destiny" Monk saw Lin Qi Ye’s current state, and a gentle smile appeared on his face as well.

“Please just call me "Destiny" Monk. It seems something very interesting happened here just now.”

…

On the peak of Jiuhua Mountain, in Biyou Palace.

Through the unremitting efforts of many Great Xia Gods, the prototype of Biyou Palace was finally refined.

It must be said that with the original Origin of the Heavenly Court, it was indeed much more convenient for the Primeval Lord of Heaven and the two Heavenly Venerables to display their abilities.

“Thank you, two Fellow Daoists. This Biyou Palace has finally taken its initial form,” the Primeval Lord of Heaven said.

Although the two Heavenly Venerables had a hint of fatigue on their faces, their eyes were filled with joy.

“What is lost in the morning is gained in the evening. Although the Heavenly Court has become a thing of the past, this Biyou Palace is even grander than the Heavenly Court. It won’t be long until its completion.”

Just then, outside the main hall, a bell suddenly rang, a sound of communication.

The Primeval Lord of Heaven sat on the throne and said, “What is the report?”

The Primeval Lord of Heaven’s voice was like a grand bell, clearly heard throughout the entire Biyou Palace.

Outside the main hall, a messenger boy ran in frantically and shouted,

“Reporting to the Primeval Lord of Heaven, Qingyuan Daomiao Zhenjun has returned.”

The Primeval Lord of Heaven and the two Heavenly Venerables both showed joy, “Quickly invite Qingyuan Daomiao Zhenjun to the hall.”

The messenger boy immediately turned around, and after a short while, Yang Jian arrived in the main hall.

“Yang Jian greets the Primeval Lord of Heaven and the two Heavenly Venerables.”

The Primeval Lord of Heaven asked, “Thank you, Zhenjun. A few days ago, the aura of Cthulhu suddenly appeared in Great Xia. How is the situation now?”

Yang Jian’s expression was somewhat dejected as he said, “The situation is not good.”

Immediately, Yang Jian recounted the whole story of the fishing village incident.

It turned out that on that day, he received orders to investigate the Cthulhu aura in the fishing village and discovered that there was a Divine Beast contaminated by the Cthulhu aura there.

What was even more shocking was that the Great Xia Night Watchers’ Elder had actually colluded with the Norse Outer Gods to jointly awaken that Cthulhu monster.

Yang Jian used the power of national destiny that Song Zhong lent him to severely wound the Whale of Change, but unexpectedly, the Red Moon caused trouble and awakened the Black Goat.

Although the Black Goat’s combat power was not strong at this time, it was not easy to kill him.

Moreover, the other party had realized that fighting within the territory of Great Xia was extremely disadvantageous to the Cthulhu Gods, so the Black Goat had the idea of escaping.

Of course, Yang Jian was unwilling to let him have his way, so he pursued him all the way.

Unfortunately, the Black Goat’s vitality was too tenacious, and during the pursuit, the God of Mischief Loki actually revived.

Yang Jian, being one person, was stretched thin and was ultimately allowed to escape beyond the national border.

The power of Great Xia’s national destiny could only cause damage within the territorial boundaries. Since Loki and the Black Goat escaped beyond the mist, Yang Jian had no choice but to return the way he came.

Hearing Yang Jian’s situation, the Primeval Lord of Heaven and the two Heavenly Venerables both showed grave expressions.

“I didn’t expect Cthulhu’s recovery speed to be so fast; even the Black Goat has emerged,” the Primeval Lord of Heaven said.

“Indeed, and it’s not just the situation on Earth; I’m afraid there’s also a problem with the Seal on the moon,” Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning said.

“So much time has passed; the Cthulhu evil gods are not to be underestimated, so it’s normal for there to be problems.”

The Primeval Lord of Heaven thought for a moment and said, “However, from Yang Jian’s description just now, the Black Goat seems to have awakened prematurely, and his power is far from recovering to its peak. We still have a chance.”
